Varying in accordance to the number of days, our tours generally look as follows: Since most flights arriving from the United States and Europe land at night, we typically stay the first night in Quito, giving you time to rest and relax before heading down to our facilities in Rio Verde. After breakfast in Quito, we drive to the lodge first thing in the morning, along the Route of the Volcanoes (a sight not to be missed, whether it is your first or 15th time in Ecuador).
After a light lunch at the lodge, we set out upriver. Not just to get our lines wet, of course! Dinner is not served until the fish have stopped hitting after dusk, and the rest of the evening is yours to do with as you please. Enjoy a drink and a cigar by the fireplace while listening to the river outside; go for a walk through the hamlet of Rio Verde,
just a few minutes away on foot; soak in a hot bath; visit nearby spa facilities for a steam and a jacuzzi. You are welcome to wake up early, eat a hardy breakfast, and take advantage of the morning feeders on the river. We also serve light lunches on the premises, or in the field, depending on the preference of the clients. After lunch, we typically return further upriver towards the falls. Dinner is in a nearby renowned restaurant.
You will always be accompanied by at least one local guide (generally two). In fact, the owners, who have additively more than 30 years experience in guiding and fly fishing, typically do the guiding themselves.
4-day packages start at $1200.00 USD (based on at least 2 anglers on the tour)*.
We encourage you to inquire about customized trips, should you want to incorporate more than fly-fishing into your stay. (Non-anglers will also be pleased to know that there are plenty of day hikes, waterfalls, scenic vistas, hot springs and other amenities nearby to take advantage of.)
*Our rates do not include airfare, although we would be happy to assist you in booking your flight.
