RECOMMENDATIONS.- As an agency , we are always very careful realizing our job and considered all the security norms, for we never had accident or risky setbacks; nevertheless, we recommend our clients to contract a private insurance because the places we will visit in the jungle don´t guarantee accuracy at eating time, arrival time or plenty comfortable places for basic needs. There are plenty companies that offer insurance plans that would interest you, we will be pleased on helping you finding one. You should never do your reservation one day after you finish your jungle trip because there could be any mechanical or climatic setback, the Amazonian weather is very variable. The jungle isn´t a zoo, so we can´t guarantee you will fully satisfy your expectations; even though, our team is expert of the jungle teams, so we would do anything possible to satisfy you.

NOTE: Fauna observation in unpredictable, the National Park Yasuní is a region with intact forests, so we recommend being patient in order to enjoy watching all the species this ecosystem has to offer. Time and noise influence on species observation, it´s difficult to determine the adventure we will have there, but we have to remember it is a priviledge to go into this park. Activities could change depending on the weather.

 IMPORTANT.- The price to be payed for entering in the communities or the National Park are not included and they could change unannounced.
