Discover Ecuador’s most breathtaking, unspoiled landscapes

From the lush depths of the Amazon rainforest to the pristine, rugged shores of the Pacific coast, these cruises offer a rare opportunity to connect with nature in the most immersive way possible. Onboard a luxurious riverboat or sleek expedition yacht, you’ll embark on a journey through Ecuador’s wildest corners, where every moment promises adventure, relaxation, and awe-inspiring discoveries.

Amazon expedition Cruises

Venture into the heart of the Amazon, where the mighty river winds its way through the dense jungle, teeming with exotic wildlife and rich biodiversity. These are more in depth explorations than staying in lodges. You will be guided by expert naturalists, you’ll explore hidden waterways, encounter playful river dolphins, and meet indigenous communities whose way of life has remained unchanged for centuries.

Wild Pacific Coast Expedition

Set sail along Ecuador’s spectacular Pacific coast aboard the Kontiki Wayra, an exclusive yacht offering personalised itineraries that reveal the region’s most secluded beaches, vibrant marine life, and dramatic cliffs. Whether it’s kayaking through crystal-clear waters or hiking in the shadow of mist-covered volcanoes, every expedition promises a unique and unforgettable experience.

Experience the magic of Ecuador in a way few ever will, and let your journey become a tale of wonder.
