On Day 1, we would like to leave Quito in the morning to get an early start. We will spend the next 2 nights in the Eastern Cloudforest to look for upper Amazonian species. This is perhaps the most herpetologically diverse region in the world, with frogs being the largest group of herps in this cloudforest.

On Day 3, we plan to leave the cloudforest around 9:00am to travel to the Amazon Rainforest, the most biodiverse area of the world. We can either stay in the city or in a budget-style cabin for this night due to its convenient location nearby the city, and we can also walk the trails on the property to get our first lower Amazonian species.

On Day 4, we plan to leave the around 9:00am to travel deeper into the Amazon Rainforest by boat. We will either go to Cuyabeno or Yasuni depending on availability. Herping will be our primary activity, but we can also look for other wildlife including monkeys and birds. We will spend the next week in this area to be amazed by its biodiversity.

On Day 11, we will travel by boat back to civilization by returning to the city or budget-style cabin nearby for one last night in the lower Amazon.

On Day 12, we plan to leave the Amazon Rainforest around 10:00am and travel back to the Eastern Cloudforest to look for more upper Amazon species for the next 2 nights.

On Day 14, we will head back to Quito to drop anybody off at the airport. Anybody who wants a private extension after this can contact us to coordinate.
