Immerse in Huaorani Culture | 3 Days Rainforest Tour from Quito

WAORANI TRIP REVIEW

I recently returned from a wonderful four-day tailor-made trip to the Ecuadorian rainforest organised by Live Ecuador in April 2026, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. As a solo traveller looking for something authentic and far from the usual tourist trails, Meloni Carrera at Live Ecuador perfectly understood what I was hoping for and designed a completely personalised itinerary just for me. From start to finish, everything was exceptionally well organised. The trip was truly off-the-beaten-track and immersive. I stayed in a Waorani indigenous village, which gave me a rare and respectful insight into their culture and daily life. We did both day and night walks through the jungle, river trips, piranha fishing, and plenty of opportunities to engage in local activities. The wildlife encounters were unforgettable – playiong with villagers’ pet monkeys, a beautiful baby tapir, and many other wild animals in their natural habitat. I was lucky to have two fantastic guides. Carlos was an outstanding guide – knowledgeable, attentive, and passionate about the jungle. Guami was not only a great companion but also an excellent cook who prepared delicious meals throughout the trip. Meloni was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout. After I accidentally lost my phone in the river during one of the excursions, she stepped in to assist and made sure everything was sorted. That level of personal care really stood out. Live Ecuador is a reliable, professional, and trustworthy travel agent specialising in genuine bespoke experiences. If you want a safe, personalised, and authentic trip in Ecuador – whether it’s the rainforest or elsewhere – you can confidently hand over the planning to them. They listen carefully and deliver exactly what you’re looking for. I would highly recommend Live Ecuador to anyone seeking a meaningful, well-organised adventure. Thank you Meloni, Carlos, Guami, and the whole team – it was a trip I’ll never forget!

10 Days Galapagos Island Hopping: Santa Cruz & Isabela Island

Perfectly planned and well organized tour

I took a custom-designed tour— five days of island hopping followed by a five-day cruise. The tour was perfectly planned and well organized by the agency, especially by Natalia Soria. And the Galápagos Islands themselves are simply incredible. Thank you so much for this amazing experience!
