Tambopata Amazon rainforest Tour 4 Days And 3 Nights

Visit places

After a delicious jungle breakfast, we begin a 1.5-hour walk to the famous Sandoval Lake, traveling through pristine rainforest filled with incredible flora and fauna. Along the way, you may spot giant otters, water birds, caimans, wild jungle hens, taricayas (small turtles), and a wide variety of fish.

Once we arrive at Sandoval Lake, one of the most beautiful lakes in the Madre de Dios region, we will spend several hours exploring the area by canoe. You will have time to fish for piranhas, paddle across the calm waters, swim, take short walks, or simply relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

We will enjoy a box lunch by the lake, surrounded by the sounds and colors of the jungle.

One of the most impressive experiences of the rainforest is witnessing the enormous size of its ancient trees. You will have the opportunity to stand at the base of the giant Lupuna tree and truly appreciate its magnitude. Depending on time and interest, we may also make a short visit to the historic Fitzcarrald boat or explore the traditional “chacras,” the local farming areas of the region.

In the afternoon, we return to the lodge to rest and relax. Dinner will be served in the evening.

At night, you may choose to join an optional nocturnal activity to discover the jungle after dark.

Visit places

We set out along the majestic Madre de Dios River, traveling downstream by boat for about one hour to reach the native community of the Ese Eja people, the largest Ese Eja community in the region, home to approximately 200 families. During our visit, we will meet two local families who participate in the project “Rescuing Cultural Values,” located on Gamitana Island.

This meaningful project preserves and shares the ancestral heritage of the Ese Eja people. The families will introduce us to their ancient culture, including their language, traditions, clothing, and traditional dances. In our modern world, where many ancestral traditions have faded, this visit offers a rare and authentic cultural experience.

The Ese Eja people allow us to discover a way of life deeply connected to nature, rooted in the traditions of ancient hunters and warriors. This encounter gives us the opportunity to share, learn, and connect directly with one of the Amazon’s oldest living cultures.

Lunch will be served at 1:00 p.m.

In the afternoon, we will enjoy some rustic fishing along the Madre de Dios River. With a bit of luck, we may catch species such as pictus catfish, smallmouth fish, armored catfish, or red-eye piranha.

Later, we return to the lodge to relax. Dinner will be served in the evening, followed by a well-deserved rest.

Visit places

We depart very early in the morning to witness one of the Amazon’s most spectacular natural shows: the Parrot Clay Lick, also known as the “Collpa de Loros.”

As the sun rises, we travel by boat for approximately 1.5 hours along the river, enjoying the peaceful scenery of the jungle at dawn. Upon arrival, we will observe a large clay wall where hundreds of green parrots gather each morning to feed on the mineral-rich clay. This colorful and lively experience is one of the highlights of the region.

We will usually spend about one hour here, watching and photographing this incredible wildlife spectacle before returning by boat.

On our way back, we will enjoy breakfast before continuing to Puerto Maldonado.

Once in the city, we will transfer you to the airport. Check-in is required at least two hours before your flight. If time permits, we will also visit the fascinating Snake Farm before your flight to Cusco or Lima.
