Itinerary

  1. In the morning, we will pick you up from Baños in a wonderful drive towards Rio Zunag, which takes 40 minutes. Once we are there, it is time to get change with the equipment to enter into the river, and look for the famous Carachamas or Andean Cat Fish. Be ready to get wet because you will catch the fish with a wire and your own hands. It has all to be an interesting and funny experience! After, we will see who was luckier and collected more fish. To celebrate the success, we will take you back to Rio Negro, where we will share with a local family (NOT A CONVENTIONAL RESTAURANT) a delicious BBQ lunch and, of course, to try this delicious fish, all surrounded by beautiful plants and lots of birds. Finally, we will go back to Baños City.

About Baños

Baños, in the Ecuadorian Andes, is a small town in a green valley under the Tungurahua volcano, known for hot springs and waterfalls.

Baños de Agua Santa lies at about 1,800 metres, where the Andes drop towards the Amazon basin, on the Pastaza River in Tungurahua province. The town grew around its thermal baths, fed by volcanic springs, and around the Basilica of the Virgin of the Holy Water, a pilgrimage church of dark stone. Tungurahua volcano rises above the rooftops.
