Trip Information

Easily accessible via a short flight from Lima, the Amazon is the world's largest rainforest and home to an astonishing array of wildlife, as well as countless plant species. Spending three nights at a riverside lodge in the Tambopata Reserve, we use motorised canoes to explore its lakes and rivers, and follow jungle trails to discover its dense forests. The biodiversity of this region is incredible and with a bit of luck you may see colourful macaws and other tropical birds as well as an array of native South American mammals, such as capybara and giant river otter. There’s also time to relax by the river at the lodge or to sit back in a hammock.

Itinerary

Day 1 Start Lima; fly to Puerto Maldonado and transfer to Amazon Lodge in the Tambopata Reserve by boat.

A car and a driver will collect you from your hotel early this morning and take you to Lima airport in time for the early morning flight to Puerto Maldonado. Puerto Maldonado is a small jungle town and you will be met by a guide at the airport, who will accompany you to the jungle lodge. The transfer is a short (45 minute) drive to the river, from where you continue by boat to the jungle lodge in the Tambopata Reserve (between 1.5 and 3 hours depending on which lodge you are staying in). On the way it is possible to see caiman, River turtles and a wide variety of bird life. A light lunch/snack is served on the boat. You will make a stop at the lodge's office in Puerto Maldonado town en route where you will be provided with a duffel bag and be asked to take only what you need with you, whilst your main luggage will be stored securely at the office during your stay in the rainforest. Accommodation: Amazon Rainforest Lodge

Day 2 - 3 Two days exploring the forest, rivers and lakes surrounding the lodge, on foot and in both motorised and paddle canoes in search of wildlife and birdlife.

The next two days are spent exploring the forest, rivers and lakes surrounding the lodge, on foot and in both motorised and paddle canoes. Although a lot of the wildlife tends to hide in the dense foliage, we should expect to see a wide variety of birds, including herons and egrets, jacanas, macaws and the almost prehistoric-looking hoatzin, as well as several species of monkey, reptiles and insects, and with luck the giant otters which live in the rivers of the Amazon Basin. Accommodation: Amazon Rainforest Lodge

Day 4 Fly back to Lima and transfer to your hotel.

A dawn start is required for the boat transfer back to Puerto Maldonado (usually departing between 07:30 and 08:30), giving memorable views of the sunrise over the river. Look out for the early morning wildlife, which is particularly active at this time. Howler monkeys are frequently heard as they stake out their territories. You will go via the lodge's office in town to collect the rest of your luggage and then continue to Puerto Maldonado airport (usually arriving between 09:30 and 11:00 - depending on which lodge you have come from). The flights usually arrive back into Lima in the early afternoon and you will be transferred to your hotel. Accommodation: Hotel El Tambo 1 (or similar)

Day 5 End Lima.

The add-on tour ends in Lima after breakfast today. A departure transfer from the Lima hotel to Lima airport is included provided you have supplied Exodus with your international flight details or have booked flights through Exodus.
