Grand Selva Lodge & Tours

My family and I did the 4 day, 3 night adventure. It was amazing. There was the perfect amount of down time mixed with adventures. The food was delicious and I truly felt well cared for. Karin and Roberto were amazing hosts and helped us out with all of our needs.
Roberto and Richard really made sure we were safe on the challenging (amazing! ) hikes we went on. And Roberto was so Informative. I also really liked how thy emphasize caring for the environment.
They helped us set up a shuttle from their place back to Quito.
They have two of the sweetest dogs and cats that live on their property.
Their pool is awesome. Super deep and well maintained.
Thanks for the amazing trip. It was the highlight of our Ecuador trip!

Place little bit far away from cities in the middle of nature. Clean rooms, great tasty food and relaxing pool. Enjoy the chocolate production, and also the best thing is nightwalk to the forest to see night animals in the jungle! I can recommend!

I wanted this trip to be a once in a lifetime adventure, and it truly was. Thanks to the Grand Selva tours, I had an unforgettable Amazon experience. My 4 nights 5 days package was extremely well organized, and the lodge itself was peaceful and beautifully authentic, blending Ecuadorian culture with cozy comfort. As a solo female traveler, I felt safe and comfortable from the moment I arrived, and my room was spotless and even mosquito free.
The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, making me feel more like a family member than a guest. Special thanks to Karin for ensuring such a smooth and caring stay, and to Junior, my guide throughout this adventure. The tours were professionally organized, and the warmth and friendliness of everyone made this experience truly special. I highly recommend Grand Selva for an authentic and memorable Amazon journey.

Spent three terrific nights at the Grand Selva. Did the night nature walk — incredible the diversity of animal life just outside the front entrance of the lodge. Spent an entire day — guided by the wonderful Junior — on the river, visiting a local village as well as the Amazoonica refuge. Thank you to Karin and team for a fantastic experience!

We had a very nice stay in Grand Selva jungle Lodge. We booked a 4 day all inclusive package and had really nice tours. The personal was very nice and the location of the loge was in a calm and peaceful area.

We had a great time. They took very good care of us, paid attention to my food allergy and everything. The lodge is very spacious and has a pool table and pool, but is still surrounded by the jungle.

Wonderful natural experience. Lodge was located in centre of Jungle activities. Jungle walks, night walks, tubing, rafting, visit to animal refuge centre, visit to indigenous village.
Lots of activities & fun.
Totally recommend.

Resting facts for us. The chocolate class/demonstration was really fun and interesting. The hike to a waterfall where we swam at the base was beautiful, definitely worth the extra day. On the walk through the jungle we didn’t see anything but bugs and birds but I always just like to get out into nature so I enjoyed this as well. I thought the visit to the local native village was going to be super awkward but it was actually really interesting; only the dancing part was awkward. The night walk was informative and we saw lots of spiders. The only bigger wild animals of interest we saw were monkeys. (We saw them at Amazoonico bc they hang around the captive monkeys. ) We didn’t go to Monkey Beach though so I could speak to that activity. Karin and Roberto were great hosts and very accommodating. The AC worked very well and we were comfortable on our stay. The only thing to keep in mind is that none of the guides we had spoke English. (Or at least not enough to make a difference for non-Spanish speakers. ) Roberto and Karin speak both English and Spanish fluently though and Roberto did lead the night walk. Karin also speaks German fluently. The lodges around this area all do the same tours, so unless you’re fussy about having a fancy place to stay, this lodge is a great bang for your buck!

This place was awesome. My family and friends had a lot of fun. Karin, Junior and the rest of the team were super attentive and nice to us. All the activities felt safe with people that knew what they were doing and they explained everything very well. We wish we could have stayed longer. They are active in the community and you are supporting a good cause by staying here.

This place was awesome, clean and cozy. My family, friends and I had a really good time. We could see animals, the communities nearby Karin, Junior and the rest of the staff were super nice and attentive all the time. All the activities were safe and well explained. The food was healthy and filling.
We hope coming back next year!
Totally recommend it.

We had a wonderful time at Grand Selva lodge. The whole team was super nice, helpful and attentive. With Junior (the guide) we made great trips for 4 days and learned a lot about nature and culture.
Also the accommodations were clean and comfortable.

Amazing place for great jungle adventures. Friendly people, good food, clean rooms, great activities. The adventures was great and I would recommend it to everybody. The walk in the jungle, full Napo tour, The nocturne walk, The chocolate experience, The beautiful waterfalls. Just amazing.

Really beautiful lodge in the jungle. Good food, very nice tours and they even have a pool. It was amazing being able to stay in the jungle in a cozy place where you are safe from everything that crawls at night. Junior and Roberto do really nice tours and you get to see a lot of the jungle. In the lodge Karolin will take really good care of you and there is even a very cute little bunny you can pet.

Our trip to the lodge went perfectly smooth, just as described on their website. From the very beginning, we felt welcomed and well taken care of. The host family was incredibly friendly and kept checking in to make sure everything was alright throughout our stay.
The food was tasty and satisfying, and our room was spacious, with a clean bathroom and reliable hot water — a big plus in the jungle! We also really enjoyed the pool, which was a great way to relax after the tours.
The dogs on the property might look big at first, but they are absolutely adorable and very gentle — we loved having them around.
The tours were well organized, and our guide was fantastic — knowledgeable, engaging, and always making sure we had a great experience.
All in all, we had a wonderful stay and would absolutely recommend Grand Selva Lodge & Tours to anyone looking for an authentic and comfortable Amazon experience!

I experienced the trip of a lifetime with Robert and Karin.
I am a flight attendant with 33 years of travel all over the world.
With 33 years of travel, nothing in the world has touched my heart the way this trip did for me and my family.
I have experience.
If you want an experience much deeper than being a tourist.
You must come here!
A family that welcomes you into their home.
A family that invites you to learn and experience their culture.
They teach you about night critters in the Amazon.
They educate you about plants and ants.
They help you float down the river.
They show you all kinds of wildlife in a canoe.
MONKEYS!
Not to mention, meeting the indengeous people.
Too much to list.
By the way.
They accommodated for all my age different family members.
They made sure Everyone got to learn and experience everything.
That made our trip beautiful.
That is why Robert and Karin will forever live in our hearts.
If you want an experience of a lifetime.
You should definitely go to Grand Selva Lodge.
My most beautiful experience ever!
A true dimonond!

We had the best time ever on this 21-day round trip through Ecuador. The organization was excellent our tour guide and driver Karin was very accommodating and assisted us in every possible was. Ecuador is such a diverse country, and this trip really makes you see it all. The whole tour in German with private transportation, food, activities and lodging was excellent. They mention middle class hotels in the itinerary, but all the accommodations are actually higher standard with hot water, good Wi/Fi connections, comfortable bedding close to the attractions but protected from noise and A/C and heaters where needed. I am glad we choose to book the tour with Grand Selva. The trip would definitely not have been as enjoyable doing it ourselves and probably more expensive considering that even the round-trip flight ticket to Galapagos and the very expensive entrance fees are included. Highly recommended!
