The Cuyabeno Reserve is a protected area since 26 July 1979 with an area of 603.380 square kilometers. One of the main objectives of the Cuyabeno Reserve is the continuous conservation of the Amazonian ecosystem- the most complex ecosystem in the world. This reserve is a complex of rivers, lagoons, and flooded forest. This protected area is characterized by its high biodiversity and interactions between the species inhabiting the area. The Reserve’s geomorphology is a consequence of the rivers carrying sediments and materials from the Andes, mainly by the Aguarico River. • The immense volume of water flowing down from the mountains maintains the naturally high water levels ensuring that the river is navigable all year round. In the Cuyabeno Wildlife Reserve there are 10 monkey species, 4 caiman species, 590 bird species, 167 mammals, 90 amphibians, 90 reptiles and hundreds of insect and spider species, along with an incredible record of 307 tree species per hectare. There are two seasons, dry and rainy. Access to the lodges are by fluvial (river) transport offered by the local indigenous communities coordinated by the lodge and a highly trained, accredited naturalist guide. • Day 1: We met in Lago Agrio at 9:00 am, where we we took a bus to the entrance of the Cuyabeno Reserve. At this point we will at the Reserve’s office and then board the canoe. Here our Naturalist Guide provides information about the Reserve, important recommendations and other tips to begin the two hour canoe ride down the Cuyabeno River to Caiman Lodge. During the canoe ride we got a first glimpse of the amazing flora and wildlife found in the jungle. You may also be able to see a variety of monkeys and other jungle animals, depending on the time and weather conditions. We arrived at Caiman Lodge at 3:30 pm. After a siesta we left the camp for a swim in the lagoon and to watch a beautiful sunset while also having the possibility to spot freshwater dolphins. We then returned to the camp for dinner and then we head out for a night walk. • Day 2: Day Jungle Hike in the Primary Forest where the guide explains the ecology of the rainforest, medicinal plants and flora and fauna interactions of the most biodiverse ecosystem on Earth. In the afternoon we went paddling around the flooded Igapo inundated forest around the Laguna Grande and in the evening we head out by motor canoe to look for caimans. • Day 3: We head out downstream to the Puerto Bolivar Siona Community and there we are welcomed by one of the indigenous woman and she took us to the yuca plantation to harvest some yucas and with our help she will show us the preparation of one of their traditions foods, Casave (Yuca flat bread). Immediately after this the guide introduced us to two of the last 4 Shamans of the Siona tribe in Ecuador and there one of them explained their cosmovision directly related to the Ayahuasca brew, he performed an energy cleansing part of the ritual singing their chants which come from a millenary Shaman-apprentice oral tradition • Day 4: Early morning birdwatching (5:30) and sunrise, breakfast at the lodge and at 9:30 return to the Cuyabeno bridge where we had a box lunch and then were picked up by a shuttle bus which took us to Lago Agrio so we can get back to Quito either by bus or airplane. • Ecuador Tour Guide Recommendation: https://goo.gl/l9aF6X • http://www.carpedm.ca/caiman-lodge/ • music: A Himitsu - Lost Within • For more infos and videos, just follow me • on facebook: / thedigitalphat • on instagram: / digitalphat • Here is my production kit and some recommendations for great video productions: • My smooth video is produced with this gimbal: https://amzn.to/2CUmGwx • My outdoor camera GoPro: https://amzn.to/2SFI7GK • For low light shots I use: https://amzn.to/2SFI91k • My favorite drone: https://amzn.to/2SH6bsP • My iPhone: https://amzn.to/2C6m19p • My headlight: https://amzn.to/2GYRQGP • Sneaker recommendation: https://amzn.to/2H12UDp • My sunglasses: https://amzn.to/2C38gIM • My backpack: https://amzn.to/2DZUF7k • Thanks for your support!
