Itinerary

All tours can be done privately where you can set the departure time, add in or remove sites and most importantly go at your own pace. Please ask us for more information about availabily and prices.

  • Day 1

    You will be picked-up at the airport or bus station and transferred to our office at Tambopata Hostel for a tour briefing. In case you have large luggage, we suggest that you repack and store any items that are not required. You will be transferred by land by (4X4) wheeled truck to our destination that takes around 2 hours, reaching the banks of the Tambopata River. We will then take a half hour (depending on the water level) boat ride up river to "Collpas Tambopata Inn”. Upon arrival there will be a welcome reception followed by breakfast or lunch depending on the time of arrival. In the afternoon we make an introductory walk into the rainforest where we will have the opportunity to see animals in their natural habitat such as amphibians, mammals, reptiles and wonderful insects, among others. We will also climb a 53mcanopy tower that has a fantastic panoramic view of the Amazon rainforest and where we will enjoy a magical sunset.

  • Day 2

    We wake up very early, at 4:30 am, to go on an incredible journey by boat to the world's largest macaw clay lick “ EL CHUNCHO”, a journey of about 1:30 hours by boat. On the way we will have the opportunity to see some species such as capybaras, which is the world's largest rodents, tapirs, and you can even see the most beautiful South American feline, jaguar, many of our clients are witnesses with photographic evidence of encounters with these beautiful mammals.

    After our arrival to the macaw clay licks you will see hundreds of parrots of different species that come to eat clay adjacent to the river on the wall. We will settle in our chairs to wait for the beginning of one of the most beautiful natural sights of birds in the world. Parrots are followed by 3 of the most colorful species of macaws of America, reds and greens, blues and yellows come to gather to eat clay needed in their daily diet and eliminate toxins. On a good day of activity you will see hundreds of these wonderful animals flying over you. An experience for life!

    Return to our lodge for breakfast and free time. Before lunch we will walk through the botanical garden with a professional guide to see tropical fruits, timber and medicinal species in our area. In the afternoon we will have the opportunity to kayak the Tambopata River where we will move silently along the river, so we will have more opportunity to observe the larger animals of the Tambopata Reserve. Late afternoon/evening: option to do another night walk or caiman spotting on the river

  • Day 3

    After breakfast, we will go to the mammal clay lick where you can appreciate different species of animals (tapir, capybara, wild pigs, sloths and more) feeding on salts and minerals that contain important digestive properties. Our guide will explain the different techniques and forms of hunting used by the locals. We will then return to the lodge where you will observe other wildlife including birds, butterflies, monkeys (such as spider, capuchin, squirrel and howler monkeys).

    Lunch will be served at the lodge

    After lunch, we will head to the Malinowski River to try our luck at fishing; a great place to catch piranhas, catfish and everything that nature can give us.

    Dinner will be served at the lodge in the evening and could include the fish that you caught!

  • Day 4
