Ecuador encompasses a mere 2% of the continent’s rainforest yet boasts a dizzying third of the Amazon’s entire bird species. At the heart of country’s tropics, the Yasuni National park covers 9,820 km² of pristine rainforest and is arguably the most biologically diverse spot on Earth, designated a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 1989. Accessed via short hopper flight from Quito, there are a number of excellent lodges along the Napo River. Many are part owned by indigenous communities and provide a rustic yet charming base from which to explore the steamy jungle. Expert native and naturalist guides lead tourists to discover the rich flora and fauna on nature walks, boat-trips and visits to macaw clay-licks. Further afield, remote tribes have opened up simple tented camps and offer visitors the unique opportunity of experiencing the forest through the eyes of its original inhabitants.

Went very well thanks. Really loved Patagonia (and Antarctica was just amazing!). In Patagonia we were extremely fortunate with the weather - both in Torres del Paine, Calafate and El Chalten. Managed to see all the massifs and the two glaciers in all their glory!
