4D/3N SAFARI CAMP TIPUTINI
YASUNI NATIONAL PARK
Around a bend of the Tiputini River lies a place full of charms and authenticity… Mandari Panga is an ecotouristic project that began to write its history in 2014, with the goal of granting the community an improvement in education, employment, and access to some basic services such as purified water and medical services.
To provide an effective alternative for the members of the Mandari Panga community, improving their quality of life while maintaining their customs, ancestral roots, and the native language. All of this is directed towards the primary objective of contributing to the conservation and protection of the Yasuní National Park and all its benefits
The camp offers accommodation in comfortable tents on elevated, sheltered platforms, each complete with mattress and bedding. You’ll feel the Amazon here, having more direct contact with the environment and allowing our guests to really experience the sounds, scents and environment of the Ecuadorian Amazon. Each platform also offers a comfortable hammock and chair for your use and enjoyment. The camping site has shared bathrooms and showers.
Our optional accommodation is in large, stand-up tents where no crouching is necessary, and with complete platform beds inside. These tents can accommodate a couple or small family, with all the comforts of a typical cabin (additional cost applies). These tents are also set up on elevated and sheltered platforms. Meals and meetings are held in the common house at the camping site, a typical Amazon home with traditional wood construction.
