Ecuador remains one of those mystical and mysterious places that are very difficult to find in the developed world. Therefore Ecuador is the perfect destination for people who love nature and adventure and its natural beauty cannot be compared.

There are also many species of fauna. If volunteers and scientists are interested in starting any project of their own we are very open to their ideas and offer help and any information that they need.
