Asked on March 30th, 2023Can you provide information about drinking water, luggage restrictions, and internal flight options?
- GUIDEcuador TravelOperator•Written March 2023
At the lodge there is always a purified water container that you can refill any time for free. We don't have luggage restrictions but recommend traveling light. If you have a big bag, it's not a problem to take it to the lodge. We use Coca Airport for internal flights, which is USD 130 extra. As a solo traveler, the tour price in a single room is USD 1750.

Asked on February 19th, 2023Can you arrange a flight from Quito to Lago Agrio? Can someone then get us at the airport. Also can a flight be arranged Back to Quito at the end of the trip. How much would this cost and details of both flights there and back
- GUIDEcuador TravelOperator•Written February 2023
We can arrange flights but preferable is fly to Coca instead of Lago Agrio. The round trip air ticket to Coca & Quito is usd 260 per person + the extra transfer from Coca Airport to Tierras Orientales (usd 100 total)

Lorraine
Traveler•Written February 2023No mention of a cost to transfer from Tierras Orientales to Coca Airport on our way back to Quito, OR is this included in the $100 Transfer fee. Not sure if this is a transfer fee for both ways. Also, how long is the transfer from Coca Airport to Tierras Orientales. Will someone meet us at Tierras Orientales
- GUIDEcuador TravelOperator•Written February 2023
The extra for the transfers is usd 100 (you pay directly to the driver in Coca). Our Driver will pick you up in Coca Airport to drive and drop off you at Tierras Orientales, then the lodge staff will meet you to go on 3 hours canoe ride up to the lodge. On the way back same 4 hours canoe ride to Tierras Orientales then our driver will take you to Coca Airport. The Air fare to Coca now is 275 usd per person

Asked on February 8th, 2023We have been looking at different trips in Ecuador. One of the things in your tour is we do some canoeing, can you tell me approximately how long my friend and I would be paddling?
- GUIDEcuador TravelOperator•Written February 2023
Normally in this program we have 2 cannoing activities to see night wildlife (caymans , night birds ,pink dolphins, etc.) The time normally is couple of hours each time. The greatest part of our program is that the lodge is the far away almost at the end of Cuyabeno Reserve , so chances to see a lot of wildlife are very big.
- D
Dale
Traveler•Written February 2023I'm assuming that if we are looking at wildlife the canoeing will be at a slow pace or are we canoeing at a faster pace to reach a destination?
- GUIDEcuador TravelOperator•Written February 2023
To get to the lodge is a speed boat (long way from the port to waita lodge. Then while canoeing looking for wildlife is very slow (with a paddle)

Asked on February 5th, 2022I will be volunteering at a sanctuary south of the country for at least 6 weeks. I won't know the exact date I will be out of the sanctuary. Does this tour absolutely leave Quito every day? Where does it leave from? Is scheduling online the only way or is there someplace in Quito where I can book it on the day of or the day before a trip starts?
- GUIDEcuador TravelOperator•Written February 2022
Sure you can book with us few days before the starting of the program, but please let us know in advance to set a place. Just to let you know as solo traveler you need to add a single supplement rate at the program.
