Hightlights of Amazon Napo Wildlife Center Ecolodge

Category: Luxury

  • Napo Wildlife Centre is a luxury ecolodge, boasting a privileged location inside of Yasuni National Park. Yasuni is the most biodiverse ecosystem on the planet, and a protected UNESCO biosphere site. It was also recommended by National Geographic as one of the top places in the world to visit in 2022!
  • In just one Yasuni hectare, one can find more species of organisms than in the entire European continent! The national park is home to a third of all Amazonian mammals, including a staggering 60% of all New World wild cats, 106 reptiles, and 610 species of bird; as well as more than 4000 species of plants. Napo Wildlife Center Ecolodge gives visitors direct access to this amazing diversity.
  • The concept and construction of Napo Wildlife Center Lodge is the brainchild of the Anangu Quichua community who own 100% of the lodge. All tour proceeds are re-invested directly into the community. The project is universally recognized as a blueprint for community-based tourism projects.
  • The Napo Wildlife Center Ecolodge is constructed in a natural, indigenous style to blend in with the rainforest. Services include luxury accommodations, ample social areas, and a 50-foot wildlife viewing tower.
  • Napo Wildlife Center has built up such a great reputation that both the New York Times and the BBC have visited the site to run nature reports & documentaries.
