Upper Rio Napo Adventure

1 Day Trip

Start and end Quito

  Big waves while white water rafting on Ecuador's Rio Napo

The upper Rio Napo is known locally as the Rio Jatunyacu, which means BIG WATER in Quichua. Big is probably the best word to describe this whitewater river: Big water, big waves and big fun.


End of the road

The adventure begins where the road ends, in a remote spot in the jungle, the highest accessible point of the Rio Napo.

Only a handful of scattered Quichua families live this far in. You are straight in to large rapids and roller coaster size waves, intermingled with some calm pools that give you a chance to fully relax and take in the spectacular scenery.

This is our most popular rafting trip – and no previous rafting experience is necessary.


What’s included:

Professional guides, complete rafting equipment, meal on the river, transport from Quito to the river and back.


Not included:

International flights (we can look for these for you), insurance, personal expenses, tips



You can combine your Ecuador holiday with a magical trip to the unique Galapagos Islands. Choose a cruise or if you want to get active have a look at our popular Multi-Activity Holiday. Or if you want to extend your stay on the mainland, explore the wildlife of the beautiful Ecuadorian Amazon jungle.
