Bellavista Cloudforest

NATURE AT ITS BEST

Cloudforest Tour

The Bellavista Nature Reserve is located just 2 hours from Quito making it the perfect short nature-escape break.

The area offers a high biodiversity of bird, plant and animal species and is recognised as a worldwide wildlife hotspot with very different flora and fauna to that of the rainforest. It is particularly famous for the hundreds of colourful hummingbirds that flit between the many feeders located around the lodge.

Above all the peace and tranquillity of the lodge make it an ever popular trip with our clients.

“A magical place that I never even imagined could exist. It was an unforgettably special 3day trip!” (Richards Williams, UK)

“A thoroughly enjoyable tour and excellent service from the guide and lodge staff. The hummingbirds in particular were fascinating - I could have sat and watched them all day long.” (Sheila Evans, USA)
