Ecuador’s rich history and diverse geography have helped forge cultural identities within communities in the Amazon rainforest. Ecuador’s indigenous Amazon peoples have a variety of cultures, languages, and traditions. Home to the Siona, Secoya, Cofan, Shuar, Zaparo, Huaorani, and Kichwa, among others, Ecuador’s Amazon peoples have largely preserved their cultures throughout centuries of conquest by the Inca and the Spanish. There are still two known uncontacted tribes living in the Amazon in Ecuador: the Taromenane and the Tagaeri. These groups are composed of only a few hundred individuals, and their rights to live in isolation and free from contact in the Ecuador Amazon are protected by the constitution.
The Amazon offers many adventures for those who came to explore. You can take a guided hike during the day or at night and learn about the various species that call this area home. From deep in the Amazon at Yasuni National Park to the backpacker town of Tena, there is so much to see and do in the Ecuador jungle, like wildlife tours that give visitors a chance to see hundreds of species in one of the most biodiverse places on the planet. In addition to traditional nature and wildlife tours, Tena is a popular destination for rafting through the Amazon, some of the most unforgettable Amazon tours Ecuador has to offer.
