Best jungle tour out there  - I did the 5 day tour and can honestly say it was the best 5 days of my entire 4 months in South America. The team at dolphin lodge are... read more incomparable. The food was excellent, the rooms were super clean and the beds were large and comfy with mosquito nets. Jose Miguel is the best tour guide I’ve ever had, his knowledge was out of this world and he truly went above and beyond to make this experience what it was. I could not be more happy with my time at dolphin lodge and I would recommend anyone who wants to see the Ecuadorian jungle to see it with this lodge.

  Fun in the jungle  - We booked our trip with Michael who was so awesome to deal with. He prepared us for our journey. We were a little skeptical of the overnight bus ride but... read more it was much better than expected. We spent 5 days/4 nights at Dolphin Lodge and had a great time. There were scheduled activities daily but also time to chill for a bit after lunch. Victor was our guide and he was fantastic in every way! We saw monkeys, dolphin, caiman, sloth, lots of birds and insects. We enjoyed being off of the grid for a few days. It was an awesome time in the jungle. Thanks for an amazing adventure!

  Amazing experience  - We wanted to go to this place with public transport but than the drug boss escaped and we couldn't travel anymore. The organization helped us a lot with figuring out... read more what was still possible. They picked us up a day later with their private bus. We arrived safely at their lodge and we had 4 amazing days. The guide was very nice, we had lovely meals and the rooms were very comfortable. A memory we won't forget!

  Best bang for your buck in Cuyabeno! Fantastic tour guides. Comfortable stay.  - The Cuyabeno Wildlife Center is the PLACE to go if you want to visit Cuyabeno and experience the Amazon Rainforest from the Ecuadorian side. I visited with one of my... read more friends who came from Japan and the experience exceeded all expectations. We were under the guidance of three knowledgeable tour guides: Esmeralda brought us on the two-hour trip by boat to the lodge. She was our first guide and so we were amazed by everything that we were able to see with her- so many different birds, monkeys, and even an anaconda. Then once we arrived, Victor Hugo was our main tour guide for the next three days. He's full of information about the area and all the wildlife that lives there. I don't think there was a single question we had that he could not answer. What's what bird sound from afar? Victor knows. He filled us with fun facts while showing us the most amazing things. We were able to spot a whole family of otters. Otters!! He's also got an eagle's eye for spotting things- like a small cayman from 20 meters away. Whatever you are interested, Victor will try to find it for you. Fun fact, he also took a lot of the professional looking photos that are hanging up in the cafeteria/lounge area. Our last guide was Alexandra who led us back from the lodge to the pick-up spot. We had some great conversations and for someone who only just started learning English 6-months ago, she's has made huge progress and is now a wonderful guide. Most of all, she's always willing to learn new words and is such a smiley person. We also saw an anaconda on the way back which really made it a full-circle experience. The food was sooooo delicious, every single day. There were so many fresh vegetables and fruits and the staff work with any food restrictions, diets, or allergies you might have. The rooms were also really comfortable and they even had hot water, which was a huge plus. At night, the jungle comes to life with sound. My friend and I really appreciated all three of our guides and were really pleased to see such great representation of genders and local indigenous people on the staff. I felt the trip to the local community was also done quite respectfully, which was important to me.

I will of course recommend them to others 🙂

  3 days trip review  - I had a wonderful experience! Diego was a very good guide and we learned a lot from him! We had the chance to see many animals, as an anaconda, pink... read more dolphins, many monkey species, tucans and many parrots related birds. The food was good too!
