Documentation.Passport (valid for at least 6 months). Visa/s (if necessary), including flights on the route.
Rainforest clothing. For mosquito protection, especially from November to March, wear long sleeves, T-shirts and pants made of light breathable fabric. Mosquitoes can bite into tight-fitting clothing, so it's best to have a light, baggy top layer. Shorts or skirts are good for the hot part of the day when insects aren't as active, or during the colder months of April to September.
Shoes. Wear waterproof and comfortable shoes that completely cover your feet (for example, regular sneakers). For hiking in the jungle, you will be given rubber boots. You need to bring long socks with you. Although it is likely that most of the time you will prefer flip flops or sandals. Please bring long lightweight socks to wear during the ceremony.
Rain protection. A light waterproof jacket or rain poncho is required.
Mosquito repellant. We recommend bringing a good quality mosquito repellent cream or spray as these are not easy to find in Quito. Picaridin-based repellants are less toxic but generally more effective than DEET. You can also bring a natural blend of essential oils such as tea tree, citronella, geranium, etc. Take them in sufficient volume to apply both on the skin and on outer clothing. Avoid permethrin, which is highly toxic.
