WE TRAVELED DEEP INTO THE AMAZON RAINFOREST! - Ecuador

We have made it deep into the Amazon jungle! The Amazon rainforest is known for its incredible biodiversity and stretches over 9 countries. It is home to over 10% of the known species on Earth, 47 million people, and over 2 million indigenous people. In this video, we are visiting La Selva Lodge and Retreat for a 5D/4N adventure. La Selva is located within Ecuador’s Yasuní Biosphere Reserve and on the borders of the famous Yasuní National Park.

The biodiversity of Ecuador is insane! You can go from the coast to the mountains and the Amazon jungle on the same day, and to finish off the Galapagos Islands. Just wow!

Incredible adventure! When I visited Ecuador last time, I stayed in the town of Banos which was just an hour from Puyo - where Amazon begins. So bummed I didn't get to experience it but may just have to go back! Great video guys

[@SammyandTommy]

Yes, definitely try and get back to visit the Amazon. We never made it to Banos so we will have to make a trip back as well 😁

[@laselvaeco-lodgeandretreat]

Hopefully you can experience the amazon with us some time!

[@bodvargregersen5161]

Incredible video. The photography was sensational. You guys make everything look so effortlessly. It looks like La Selva is the place to go if one is interested in seeing animals in the Ecuadorian Amazon jungle. Oh, the food looked out of this world!

What is the little hand held camera thingy you had on the boat en route into the Amazon?

[@Gabe_Hall]

Hey looks cool. Curious who yall did your tour with and if you’d recommend them? We’ve been told Ecuador is one of the better spots for the Amazon due to more wildlife. We are planning a trip so any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

[@kirkcavenaugh758]

Good vid

[@Mandarin-Ayurveda]

Background music is disturbing 😣

[@darthoutbenoit6286]

Not really immersive unfortunately... And 2 planes for this trip... Although you can easily meet Coca by car / bus from Quito... This IS not Amazonia

[@salomonhernandez3289]

De su lindo país , en You t..son lo mejor ! They Best videos!❤🎉🎉

[@igosannuffin7565]

Interesante como escriben en la descripción del video 47 millones de "personas" y 2 millones de indigenas, acaso ellos no son considerados personas también??
