Your journey into the vibrant heart of the Peruvian jungle begins with your arrival at the airport, followed by a brief Puerto Maldonado city tour. We will then embark on a motorboat at Puerto Capitanía to delve into the jungle's depths for a 2-hour ride, leading you to the lodge.

Upon arrival, savor a traditional Amazonian lunch before setting out on an excursion to Cocha Caiman, a quaint lagoon teeming with black and white alligators. Enjoy a breathtaking sunset before heading back to the lodge for a delectable dinner.

Following breakfast, we embark on a trek deep into the jungle. Along the journey, you'll witness the flood forest and an array of diverse flora and fauna, culminating at the stunning Lake Apu Victor. Ascend to the Amazon viewpoint for a panoramic vista of the lake and its magnificent surroundings. We will then return to the lodge for a satisfying lunch.

In the afternoon, we explore Monkey Island, where a hike offers the chance to observe a variety of monkey species and, with a bit of luck, even lazy bears. As the day concludes, enjoy another splendid sunset before returning to the lodge for a delightful dinner.

Tambopata is a year-round nature destination. The dry season (May to October) offers clearer skies, passable trails, and optimal conditions for wildlife viewing; nights can be cool, with occasional cold snaps dropping to 12–16°C. The rainy season (November to April) brings heavy downpours, swollen rivers, and lush vegetation, along with a higher concentration of mosquitoes. Daytime temperatures typically range from 22–32°C with high humidity. Pack a raincoat, sunscreen, and insect repellent. Peak season is from June to September; advance booking is recommended. Wildlife can be observed year-round, with spectacles like macaw clay licks being particularly active during the dry season.
