Learn about the flora and fauna of the tropical forest, while you hike through the lush vegetation. Embark on a lake tour by canoe on the lookout for caymans, the smaller cousins of alligators, which are often found hiding near the muddy banks, giant otters. Watch for monkeys and birdlife while exploring the thriving ecosystems of the rainforest and then, prepare to be enchanted by nature’s spectacle as the sun bids its farewell to the rainforest at Lake Sandoval—one of the most beautiful lakes in the peruvian southern amazon.
Fly or drive to Puerto Maldonado this morning and continue by motorized canoe to our comfortable lodge, situated within the Tambopata National Reserve in the Amazon rainforest. Spot local bird species along the lush shores of the Madre de Dios River en route to the lodge, and set off on an evening walk with a naturalist guide before dinner, keeping an eye out for some of the rainforest’s nocturnal creatures.
Spend the day exploring the thriving ecosystems of the rainforest with your naturalist guides. Scan the treetops for toucans, howler monkeys, and sloths, and glide along oxbow lakes on canoes for a chance to glimpse river otters, turtles, and, if we’re lucky, anacondas. Later, learn about the flora and fauna of the tropical forest, while you hike through the lush vegetation. Embark on a lake tour by canoe on the lookout for caimans, the smaller cousins of alligators, which are often found hiding near the muddy banks.
Explore Sandoval Lake in the morning before your breakfast, searching for caimans, birds, monkeys and much more. Travel out of the rainforest by boat and catch a flight from Puerto Maldonado to Lima. After breakfast, we head back to Puerto Maldonado as your Amazon experience comes to an end. Upon arrival, and connect with your flight home or consider extending your holiday.
In keeping with the nature of an expedition, we keep our schedule flexible to take advantage of the unexpected, adapting our course to the conditions and opportunities that arise. Your Expedition experience can be tailored to the activity level you choose, whether it’s light or moderate or a little of both. Travelers should be in good health, comfortable walking or standing for extended periods of time and over uneven surfaces, and able to get in and out of unstable expedition landing craft. Daily activities may include easy hikes, walking tours, and visits to cultural or historic sites, with options for more physical activities such as longer hikes, dependant on conditions. All departures are family friendly.
