Ecuador’s Amazon: Yasuní Wildlife Photo Extension
Photograph the diverse wildlife of Yasuní National Park
Photo-Exclusive Pre-Voyage Galápagos extension:
Led by a National Geographic Photography Expert and Lucas Bustamante, Ecuadorian photographer and founder of Savia Fund.

With 10 species of monkey, resident giant river otters, a nearby clay lick attracting macaws and parakeets, observation towers and access to the wild, photographic opportunities are extraordinary.

Just a short flight from UNESCO-designated historic Quito, largest, best preserved colonial center in the Americas.

Galápagos is one of the most surprising places on the planet, and, if you’re like most people, you’ll be reaching for your camera to capture it all. That’s why Lindblad-National Geographic certified photo instructors accompany every departure. Or you can join a Photo Expedition and travel alongside National Geographic Photography Experts on select departures aboard National Geographic Endeavour II. They will be at your side on deck and in the field to provide inspiration, advice and tips throughout the expedition.
And if that's not enough, join us for this photo-exclusive pre-voyage Galápagos extension to Napo Wildlife Center—a remarkable base for nature photography. Limited availability. Maximum 16 guests.
