Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best way to get to Spot de Camping from Quito, and what should we pack for the journey?

We usually fly into Coca and then take a scenic boat ride up the Napo River. It's a journey that truly immerses you in the Amazonian landscape. Pack light, breathable clothing, good waterproofs, and sturdy walking shoes, as the humidity is no joke and you'll want to be comfortable exploring the trails around the lodge.

What kind of wildlife can we realistically expect to see near Spot de Camping, and are there any must-do activities for spotting them?

While wildlife sightings are never guaranteed, we've had incredible luck spotting various monkey species, colorful macaws, and even the occasional caiman along the riverbanks. We highly recommend joining the early morning canoe trips; the quiet glide through the water offers the best chance to observe animals before the day heats up.

We're concerned about safety and health. What precautions should we take before and during our stay at Spot de Camping?

It's wise to consult your doctor about malaria precautions and necessary vaccinations well in advance. Once there, always follow your guide's instructions, especially when venturing into the forest, and use insect repellent diligently. The lodge staff are experienced and prioritize guest safety, making us feel quite secure.

What is the typical cost range for a stay at Spot de Camping, and what is usually included in the price?

Expect prices to reflect the remote nature and all-inclusive experience, typically ranging from $200-$350 per person per night. This usually covers your accommodation, all meals which are surprisingly delicious, and guided excursions. It's a worthwhile investment for the unparalleled access to the rainforest.

When is the ideal time of year to visit Spot de Camping for the best weather and wildlife viewing opportunities?

We find the drier months, from June to September, offer the most comfortable conditions with less rain, making jungle treks more enjoyable. However, the rainforest is vibrant year-round, and the slightly wetter periods can mean fewer crowds and lusher vegetation, which also attracts certain wildlife.
