"Grand Canyon Mondayacu"
1 Day Tour
(Download as a pdf)The tour commences at 9:00am from our office in Tena with a 45 minute taxi ride to Mondayacu. From here you will walk for about 15 minutes through the jungle to the fascinating "Grand Canyon". This place is surrounded by rocks, waterfalls, trees and caves. The Ñachi River is the name of the river that runs through the canyon. Its Kichwa name, "Ñachi", comes from the type of fish found in the river. Here you'll be able to observe birds that perch in the different spots in the caves, in the canyon and the great variety of plants and trees.
From here you'll go upriver through an enormous cave to reach a deep lagoon. You can jump into the lagoon from a ledge 10 meters high and see the Jondachi River, just a few minutes from the canyon. The entire trip makes for an unforgettable experience. Afterwards, we will return along the same path and stop at a Kichwa family home, where you will have lunch.
We will arrive back in Tena at approximately 4.30pm
