Itinerary

Day 1

Reception at the airport or bus station, and transfer to the Monte Amazonico Lodge office for important information about the tour. From there, we’ll head to the port and take a one-hour boat ride to our lodge, where we’ll be welcomed with a refreshing fruit juice from the region. After settling into our rooms, we’ll take a two-hour guided hike through the dense tropical forest with an expert local guide. Along the way, we’ll see a variety of trees, some of which are over five hundred years old. We’ll also have the opportunity to observe wild animals such as toucans, orioles, parrots, monkeys, snakes, and butterflies. This hike is a chance to experience the magic of the Amazon Rainforest within the Tambopata National Reserve (278,000 hectares of protected land under Peruvian law). After lunch, we’ll visit “Monkey Island,” located across the Madre de Dios River from our lodge. Here, we’ll see different species of monkeys, such as the brown capuchin, squirrel monkey, saddle-back tamarin, and white capuchin. After the activity, we’ll return to the lodge. At night, we’ll go on a caiman search along the banks of the Madre de Dios River. With luck, we may even spot the capybara, the world’s largest rodent, which can weigh up to 60 kilos. We’ll then return to the lodge for dinner and spend the night.

Day 2

After an early breakfast, we’ll take a short boat ride to the entrance of Lake Sandoval. After checking at the checkpoint, we’ll walk 3 kilometers (approximately 2 miles) to the lake, which is one of the largest in the Tambopata National Reserve and is home to piranhas. Once we arrive, our guide will get a rowing boat, and we’ll navigate the lake to observe a variety of birds and monkey species, including hoatzin cormorants, puma herons, eagles, howler monkeys, squirrel monkeys, black capuchins, tamarins, and sloths. If we’re lucky, we may even spot the family of giant river otters (almost two meters long) who are in danger of extinction, or the largest alligator on record, over four meters long. We’ll then return to the lodge to enjoy a typical lunch before heading back to the city.
