ITINERARY :

Departure from your hotel in Quito at 7:00 am by private car. We travel during 2 hours east up across the páramo and down through beautiful cloud forest to the shores of the river.

Once we arrive by the Quijos River , the rafting staff set up every thing. We will hear the safety talk and have a little practice on the land to have an idea about what to do on the raft, like paddle commands and other tips to keep us safe on the river. When we are ready, we go on the most exciting adventure in the river! On the way, we can experience action and the tranquillity through a spectacular rainforest and basalt canyon scenery. We run big technical rapids through the upper canyons of the Quijos. After 5 hours on the raft, we will go by car to our hostal to relax, have a hot shower or walk around in the surrounding rainforest. Around 7:00 pm , a good meal will be waiting for us.

On the second day, we will head back to the river for more fun and action through the beautiful nature of this region. On the way back to Quito we will stop at Papallacta Hot Springs. We will be back at your hotel around 8:00 pm.
