We stayed at NWC from June 27-30, 2008. It was one of the most amazing experiences of our trip! We were greeted in Quito at VIP airlines by a NWC representative who got us all checked in and then a guide from the center accompanied us to the bus across Coca and to the motorized canoe. We didn't see much... more

We stayed at the Napo Wildlife Center (NWC) for three nights, arriving on a Friday and departing on a Monday. The level of service offered by NWC is on par with the finest resorts. A representative met us at the Quito airport to answer any questions we had about our trip. Upon arriving at Coca, they transferred our luggage to... more

We saw many snakes and birds. The diversity was amazing. The workers friendly. What I did not like: 1. Walking in the dark in the jungle. They did not warn us and I was petrified. The ground was uneven and full of roots: OK for daytime, but not in the dark. 2. We were expected to tip $7-10/day for the... more

I could know about this lodge few years ago in a tourism exhibition in my country (Ecuador) and I felt in love with all the tourist attractions that offer you NWC in the middle of Yasuni National Park where is located. I talk with the owners and I did all the arrangement to take the trip. When I went for... more

Just visited NWC with my family. The place is in an outstanding location, the hotel is very nice, good food, a wonderful barman --Marcelo-- and great local guides. We enjoyed our stay tremendously and we would highly recommend it. It must be the best Amazon lodge in Ecuador. Another plus is very few mosquitoes in the area thanks to the... more

Three of us went to NWC after spending 10 days diving in the Galapagos Islands. We were picked up at our hotel, flew half an hour to Coca, took a two hour boat ride down the Napo River, and finally a two hour dug-out canoe ride up a creek to Napo Wildlife Center. I didn't know what to expect, as... more

We have just returned from a 3 night/4 day stay at the NWC. It was so amazing that it inspired us to write our first review on here. Not only are the rooms lovely, the food fantastic, the staff amazingly friendly, helpful and knowledgeable - but the whole idea behind the community project is what makes the place. This is... more

I visited the Napo Wildlife Center with my wife and two sons (11 and 13) in July 2007. I highly recommend the Napo Wildlife Center as a destination in the Amazon basin. It is located in a pristine area of the rain forest and situated on a very attractive lake. The accommodations are comfortable without being too luxurious for the... more

We (2 adults and a teenager) just returned from a 2-week trip to Ecuador that included a 3-night stay at the Napo Wildlife Center in the Amazon. After much searching and communicating with different travel companies, we decided that Stanford Travel Systems offered the best deal. We booked everything through Stanford and were very pleased with the results. They took... more
