Una experiencia inolvidable. Desde la llegada, la exuberante vegetación nos envolvió en un paraíso natural. El recorrido en canoa por el río Cuyabeno, exploraciones en la selva, caminatas nocturnas avistamiento de delfines rosados y atardeceres mágicos. Sin duda el Cuyabeno es un destino que transforma y deja una huella imborrable de quienes tuvimos la fortuna de explorarlo. Gracias Cuyabeno Wild Life Center .

The overall stay was great - lovely room and the food was wonderful. There was fresh fruit every morning and coffee, tea, & hot chocolate available all day. All of the tours were great - night walks, bird watching, sunsets - but making chocolate from cacao was definitely a runner for the best thing we did. We had a great time with our guide Elias; he spotted loads of animals and he comes from a community in the area so was able to answer all of our questions about growing up in a community.

Awesome 5 days/4 nights in the jungle. Michael was awesome in helping us with questions and booking. Victor was our guide and was so knowledgeable and friendly. We saw monkeys, dolphin, sloth, tons of birds, bugs and caiman. Loved being off grid for a few days

We had a brilliant few days staying at Dolphin Lodge, really enjoyed ourselves! The lodge was clean and comfortable, the food was delicious. Victor and Alexandra were our tour guides and they were great, very knowledgeable. Travelling by boat was well managed and really fun. The whole process to organise was very easy with Mikes help. We did 4 nights, 5 days and would recommend all of the time to fully enjoy the nature. Thank you so much!

Would absolutely recommend this trip! We did the 4D/3N your and had a blast! Miguel was a fantastic guide, his energy was phenomenal. He knows so much about all the different kinds of animals, plants and critters in the rainforest! He was very good at spotting creatures in the trees and in the water, both during the day as during the night. Our stay itself was very nice as well. We were a bit afraid of spiders, so we asked them to check our room beforehand, but we found absolutely no spiders in our room during our stay! The room is very spacious, with mosquito nets on the windows as well as on the beds! Of course it's not luxurious, but that is to be expected when you're staying in the middle of the rainforest. The food was excellent as well! We had such an amazing time, thanks to all of the lodge!

Eine absolut tolle Erfahrung! Der Kontakt mit Mike über WhatsApp war super hilfreich – er hat uns mit allen wichtigen Infos (auch für An- und Abreise) versorgt. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis des Gesamtpakets ist top! Wir haben die 5-Tages-Tour gebucht und das Programm war abwechslungsreich und spannend. Unser Guide Miguel sprach perfektes Englisch und war mit voller Begeisterung und Liebe zum Amazonas dabei. Trotz seiner langjährigen Erfahrung war seine Leidenschaft spürbar! Die Lodge war ebenfalls perfekt: saubere Zimmer mit Moskitonetz, jederzeit kostenloser Kaffee, Kakao und Trinkwasser. Auch Hängematten gabs im Gemeinschaftsbereich und man konnte sich gratis ein SUP ausleihen. Das Essen war sehr lecker – sogar den Salat konnten wir bedenkenlos genießen. Klare Empfehlung! 🌿🐒

Wir können das Cuyabeno Wildlife Center nur empfehlen! Die Dolphin Lodge liegt wunderbar mitten im Dschungel, das Team war sehr nett und professionell und das Essen ausgezeichnet. Wir hatten eine super Zeit mit unserem Guide Miguel, der uns den Regenwald in all seinen Facetten zeigte. Miguel‘s Liebe zum Regenwald, den Tieren und den Communities war nicht zu übersehen - danke, dass wir Teil davon sein durften! Wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen.

Loved it there, had a nice bed and room plus the food was amazing! Also the views in the jungle and the day trips and night walks were so fun and insightful! Saw a lot of animals and met a lot of new friends in my group

I just returned from a trip to the Cuyabeno Wildlife Centre and Dolphin Lodge - it was truly one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life! The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring everything was smooth throughout my stay. The meals were a real highlight—fresh, flavorful, and way better than I expected for such a remote location. Every meal felt like a treat after a day of adventure. Our guide, Victor, was simply phenomenal. His deep knowledge of the Amazon’s animals and birds was amazing. Thanks to Victor, we saw pink river dolphins, monkeys, toucans, caimans, and even a sloth! The accommodations were basic but perfectly fine for the setting. Everything was clean and comfortable, and they provided rubber boots and ponchos, which were lifesavers on muddy walks. Cuyabeno Wildlife Centre and Dolphin Lodge is an incredible adventure that offers so much value for the price. The wonderful staff, delicious food, and skilled guide made this an experience I’ll treasure forever.

We hebben een geweldige tijd gehad in Cuyabeno bij deze touring organisatie! Goede lodge, kundige gidsen en heerlijk eten! Ondanks het droge seizoen hebben we veel dieren kunnen zien! Een absolute aanrader als je naar Cuyabeno wilt (boek op zn minst de 3night-4day tour!)

C’était une expérience absolument unique. Notre guide, Elias, est vraiment extraordinaire, il a des yeux de lynx, il voit tout. Nous avons vu une quantité incroyable d’animaux, d’insectes et d’oiseaux. Nous avons même eu la chance de voir un anaconda, wow! La trail de ´nuit’ est particulièrement impressionnante, c’est à ne pas manquer. Le service au Dolphin Lodge était impeccable, les repas, délicieux. Bref, nous recommandons chaudement cette excursion dans l’Amazonie d’Équateur.

By far the best wildlife experience me and my family have ever had. We saw more wildlife everyday than we had ever seen before. 5 species of monkeys, pink dolphins, two and three fingered sloths, anacondas, so many majestic birds (parrots, guayacanes, etc), and tapirs. José Miguel, our deeply knowledgeable wildlife guide, is hands down the best, most engaging and fun guide I’ve ever had the pleasure to spend time with. I’ve been recommending this place far and wide since we came back. What a dream!

We had a magical time in the jungle! Miguel was our guide and he was professional, passionate and personable. The lodging and transport was comfortable and the food was delicious. Not to mention the natural beauty of the jungle and the animals: spectacular. We absolutely loved it. Amazing value for price. 🙏😊

I can’t speak highly enough of Cuyabeno! Before we even got there Mike was all over helping us with our travel plans and answering any and all questions promptly. Then once at the center, everything was taken care for us and we really felt at home. Please take my advice and book with them. Also food was incredible

We went on a 4 day 3 night trip to the jungle and Elias was our guide. I've been to the Amazon a few times before but this experience was by far the most comfortable and exciting. The logistics were seamless as they picked us up from our hostel and the tour began right where they dropped us off. Communication beforehand was excellent as they responded quickly and even helped me resolve some payment issues. The food was outstanding with delicious meals made from local ingredients including vegetarian options. The program was packed with activities and there is so much to do. While we chose to skip a few evening activities to rest, you could easily stay busy from morning until bedtime if you wanted. The guides were incredible. Elias took amazing care of us and his enthusiasm was truly contagious. It is clear that they love and respect the jungle, treating it with great care. The jungle itself was breathtaking, full of wildlife and stunning nature, and the guides were experts at spotting and pointing out animals while patiently answering all our questions. Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience. We had an amazing time and hope to return someday!

Me and my partner just returned from Dolphin Lodge in Cuyabeno. From the start this place along with the people never failed to amaze us! I was truly shocked at how much wildlife we would see over the course of 4 days. However, it was our guides throughout this experience, including Jorgé Esmeralda and Elias who made this trip even better! I could not recommend this experience any more to anyone looking to go to the Amazon. Thank you so much! Nathan and Izzy

We had an amazing time. It's truly an experience to never forget! The food in the lodge is amazing, and the guides are so enthusiastic.

We would definitely recommend staying here. The area is fantastic, with plenty of wildlife, and both the accommodation and food are excellent. Our time with Elias was especially memorable. He has a great eye for spotting wildlife, is very calm and knowledgeable, and is not 'too much'

I spent 4 fantastic days in the Amazon with the Cuyabeno tour. I truly felt like part of the family, even though we were all strangers. The staff was amazing, especially the guide Victor, who was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. The food was fantastic, from breakfast to dinner. The location was breathtaking. In short, don’t hesitate too much about booking because the experience is truly unique. Dale charapita, vamos yaaa.

My wife and I had a great experience at Dolphin Lodge. The guides and tours were great, lots of wildlife sightings. Beautiful surroundings. Food served was very good, as well were the guides. Visited a local community, went swimming in the Grande Lagoon. Staff were friendly and guides very knowledgeable and able to spots lots of wildlife. All in all a great experience that I would recommend to anybody and we felt that the price was reasonable, we had booked the 5-day Enchanted tour. A memory that will last a lifetime, Thanks. 3btraveler

Una experiencia espectacular! La estadía en Dolphin Lodge es completa y llena de aventuras. Nuestro guía (Miguel) tiene una energía increíble y se siente su compromiso con el lugar, con la naturaleza y las personas. Cuando llegamos al Puente nos costó ubicarnos ya que no sabíamos que a donde íbamos era Dolphin lodge, pero pronto las personas del lugar nos guiaron con mucha amabilidad. Tuvimos también la oportunidad de conocer a personas como Johnny que nos llevó en la canoa y nos enseñó acerca de su comunidad.

Loved my experience in the Amazon! I did the 4 day, 3 night package, and it was the perfect amount of time to experience the rainforest. My guide, Viktor, was so knowledgeable and engaging— he did a great job entertaining our group and ensuring we learned about the different wildlife and plants. His wildlife spotting skills are immaculate. Truly a detail-oriented individual, and I am so grateful for this experience! The food at the lodge was AMAZING. Everything was fresh and harvested locally, and every meal was different. Great experience overall.

This trip was absolutely one of a kind, our guide (Victor) had eyes of a hawk, spotting tons of wildlife and explaining any questions we may have had. The food was delicious, self severed with tons of options for each meal (the soups at lunch are incredible). The hangout areas are very fun and cozy allowing you to connect with other travellers and build a strong bond during your stay (we did the 5 days at dolphin lounge with my family of 4). The showers have the HOTTEST water I’ve ever had in Ecuador. There are tons of activities everyday with the ability to swim in the Laguna each evening. And a big thank you to the amazing customer service (Micheal) he was the leading factor for me choosing this tour agency, he is very responsive and helpful in anything you may need. Thank you for making this a amazing and one of a kind Christmas 🙂

Absolut empfehlenswert. Preis - Leistung mehr als gut! Die Lodge hat eine super Lage und ist die absolute Idylle. Es ist sauber, das gesamte Team ist super nett und herzlich und steht mit jeder Frage unterstützend zur Seite. Die Tage sind gut und abwechselnd organisiert. Von Sonnenaufgang bis Sonnenuntergang nimmt man das volle Erlebnis mit. Das Essen ist täglich anders, berücksichtigt alle Wünsche, ist frisch, lecker und ausreichend. Die Guides Victor und Miguel sind wahre Naturexperten und sehr herzlich. Kapitän Johnny erfüllt auch jeden Wunsch und ist ein toller Fahrer. Auch der Kundenservice der Lodge ist super: zügig, hilfsbereit und sehr nett.

La buena atención de este lugar no comparación, comida deliciosa y guías muy experimentados, espero poder volver a disfrutar de este lugar

It was fantastic, we met wonderful people and spent an unforgettable moment in the jungle.

I had an amazing time at Dolphin Lodge! The activities were fantastic, and the food and people made the experience even better. The lodge has great facilities, including cozy beds, relaxing chill areas with board games, hammocks, and free tea and hot chocolate available anytime. There was a perfect balance between exciting activities and free time to enjoy the beautiful nature around us. Our guide, Elias, was incredible! He explained everything clearly in excellent English and patiently answered all our questions. I highly recommend this place for an unforgettable adventure!

The lodge is located remotely and the digital detox there is only one of the many blessings travelers can find here! The wildlife is stunning, the staff kind and prepares delicious food and the guides are knowledgeable about the wildlife. I definitely recommend this place

Very attentive staff and the guides George and Elias were very informative. Best adventure I've had.

My girlfriend and I had an exceptional stay at the Cuyabeno Wildlife Center / dolphin lodge! The guides are all locals from either the mainland or some of the communities within Cuyabeno, which allowed them to give exceptional insight to the area and culture. Everyone was extremely friendly and opened the daily itineraries to requests made by the group, like additional night walks or visits to the lagoon. The food was incredible, and the buffet style ensured we all ate as much as we wanted. We spotted so many amazing creatures thanks to their expert eyes and couldn't have asked for a better trip into the Amazon. Thank you so much!!

All the guides are amazing! We saw so much wildlife. Definitely recommend!

10/10 experience! Guides are doing their work with an insane amount of passion!

Increíble experiencia!!! Un viaje inolvidable por primera vez en el Cuyabeno! La comida es deliciosa y los cuartos súper cómodos. Nuestro guía Miguel sabe muchísimo y nos dio una experiencia imersiva y muy muy completa. Recomiendo 100%

Had a great time visiting to jungle - you can expect to discover the wildlife with the super talented and good guides. Was not expecting that the food will be so delicious!

I had a great time. I am especially grateful to Mike, he saved my trip. I made a mistake and missed my bus. He helped me and without any problem I could start an unforgettable adventure the next day! Thanks Mike

We did the 5 day tour and really enjoyed our stay at the lodge. The service including the food were amazing. Also our guides Alexandra and Jessica were awesome!!

The 3 night 4 day trip was an amazing experience! Everything was planned out well and my dietary requirements were taken care of thoughtfully everyday. There was plenty of adventures and wildlife spotting opportunities as well as downtime each day to relax and enjoy being in nature.

From the off the whole experience was absolutely fantastic, I am so glad I chose to do it. Mike the person helping me to book was amazing he did his best to make it a memorable experience & it certainly was that. I would do it again in a heart beat.

El Tour de 4 dias/3 noches con Cuyabeno Wild Life Center estuvo una experiencia increible! Estabamos en el "Dolfin Lodge" que fue un lodge super comodo, con comida deliciosa a cada desayuno, almuerzo y cena! El servicio estuvo perfecto, muy amable y asi disfrutamos mucho de la experiencia en la Amazonia. Las actividades eran muy bien organizadas, tenemos tiempo por prepararnos y tambien descansar. Estar en el medio de la selva con animales y insectos salvajes, apprender de las plantas, de las tradiciones de las communidades, apprender a cocinar el yuca o el cacao, que bonitas experiencias! Recomiendo mucho "Elias" un guia muy talento que tiene un radar en sus orejas y ojos para escuchar y reconocer los animales, pero tambien "Edwin", nuestro piloto del barco. Ambos eran super amables, y conocen muy bien sus trabajos! Muchas gracias a ellos! Estaria interesante que notician en los detalles del tour que esta super dificil de ver a los animales salvajes...que viven lejos, alto en los arboles! Recomiendo de venir con binocularios o una super camara de calidad para observar de la mejor manera los animales. Tambien, tienen que saber que hay la temporada seca que no permite de ver a todos los animales que migran en las regiones con mas agua...de eso les recommiendo de visitar a la selva en temporada de lluvia.

Super séjour. Elias super guide Edwin sur capitaine Très bonne nourriture

I really enjoyed my stay at the lodge. The staff is lovely and facilities are all you need. It feels like home. The tours are great, thanks to the guides Miguel and Jorge. They make big efforts to give you a great authentic experience. The food is also great, particularly for such a remote place. The next time, I will stay longer than 5 days.

Our 3 night, 4 day trip to the Amazon was truly incredible! Cannot recommend Dolphin Lodge enough; the team there are so kind and hardworking, from the drivers of the boats, the kitchen staff, and of course the amazing guides. We were lucky to be guided by Esmerelda, Miguel and Victor. They are all so knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. We saw and did so much in our few days there - the logistics and organisation are fantastic. The food is delicious - you definitely won't go hungry! The groups are small - max. 10 - we had a mix of couples, friends and solo travellers.

We had such an amazing few days in the Amazon! I cannot recommend Dolphin Lodge enough. The guides (Miguel and Esmerelda) are so so knowledgeable and we were so looked after by them over the few days. The food is amazing and the owners and staff are so kind. The motor boat drivers also worked so hard to get us around safe and sound. Thank you all for such a unique and amazing experience.

Experiencia fantástica, con guias expertos, buena comida y un sitio estupende de dónde podíamos ver delfines!

I did 5 days and 4 nights at Cuyabeno Wildlife Center and it was incredible. Elias was a fantastic guide and we got to see a lot of wildlife that I would never ever be able to spot on my own. The food was fantastic and the rooms were very comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to come back and highly recommend it for anyone interested in seeing the Amazon.

This experience was so enjoyable! My guide, Miguel, was so enthusiastic about the jungle and it made my group really enjoy our time. The views, the food, everything - was so amazing. Would recommend!

Our trip to dolphin lodge was amazing! The lodge was extremely comfortable and the food was great. Our guide Alexa was so friendly and knowledgeable and ready to help with anything. The tour was planned to give us the best opportunity to see as much wildlife as possible within the short period we were there.
