5 Night, 6 Day Trip of a Lifetime

From start to finish, my daughter, my son, and I had an ABSOLUTELY AMAZING and UNFORGETTABLE experience at La Selva!

Our private naturalist guide Paul had such an enthusiastic and friendly personality. His knowledge of all the animals, insects, flora, and trees was unbelievable. Our native guide Merdado could spot “hidden” wildlife (even in the dark) in such a way that I’m still in awe that it was possible for him to do this. We learned so much from both of them!

The hardworking bartender Bernardo offered us many flavorful beverages, always with a smile on his face. The manager Miguel made sure all of our needs were met. Our spotless rooms were cleaned daily. The entire staff are to be commended!

Now, on to our stay. We had such adventurous hikes and boat rides, both day and night.

The three of us had such a memorable time visiting the indigenous Kichwa community. We even found time for a wonderful and relaxing massage at La Selva’s spa. And the food…it was scrumptious! Three meals a day with quite the spread of food with so many options and beautifully presented.

Need I say more? If you’re looking for the trip of a lifetime to the Amazon, it’s a no-brainer that La Selva Eco-Lodge and Retreat is for you!
