(Waorani region, traditional nomadic hunter-gatherers)
Tremendous variety of birds and wildlife by the Shiripuno River. Flight or drive from the Quito city to the Amazon Rainforest. Very close to the Yasuni Biosphere Reserve. Explore a pristine forest, searching for monkeys, toucans, macaws and bizarre creatures at night. Perfect tour to do birdwatching, wildlife photography, nature explorations, educational activities.
Receives a shocking message from the Waorani “Wao mimo” to protect the jungle. Perhaps, touristic activities may not cover their needs. However, they will be a wake-up call in order to protect and preserve their territory, which is becoming smaller every day due to the advance of oil companies and settlers. “The jungle is not for sale”
