Amazon Rainforest Tour from Cusco – Tambopata Reserve 3D| 2N

Guests are received at the airport and taken to the office, where you will be able to repack and leave in storage anything that you will not need on this part of your trip. We then continue on to the port, from which we will embark on an hour and forty five minutes boat ride to Explorer’s Inn. During this journey guests will receive a boxed lunch. Upon arrival guests will be greeted by the Resident Manager, who will give useful recommendations and information to ensure an enjoyable stay. After a rest, our naturalist guide will take you to The Tower (42 meters high) to overview the Rainforest. Return to Lodge and see the Sunset Point. Dinner. We board our boat to start the nighttime search of caymans in the Tambopata River. Our naturalist guide uses a spotlight in order to locate them on the banks of the river, so that we can observe them from a respectable distance, then return to the Lodge to sleep.

Breakfast. In order to have the best chance of observing endangered Giant River Otters, it is necessary to wake up very early to board the boat on a 20 minutes ride to the 3 chimbadas Lake; during will explain to us about the principal ecosystems of the tropical forest, as well as the diverse species of fauna that we see on the way. While we play a game of hide-and-seek with the River Otters, we will enjoy a snack and a short journey around the lake on small catamarans, in order to enjoy the variety of wildlife that can only be found in this ecosystem. Also we will do Piranha fishing. Return to the Lodge by boat. Lunch. After a rest we will visit a local farm close to the lodge, which belongs to a member of the local community. This activity directly supports the economic development of the La Torre community and gives us the opportunity to see and try various natural products of the area. Return to the Lodge. Dinner.

We wake early to visit the parrot claylick, which is a 40 minutes walk from the lodge. A claylick is an exposed area of clay with higher concentrations of salts and other important minerals, where parrot species converge to eat. In our case this is a small wall close to the river, allowing observation of various species of parrots and parakeets which you can see eating the clay. We will then return to the lodge walking one of our trails, where if we are lucky, we may see other animals in their natural habitat. After this activity we return to the Lodge, to have breakfast and check out.
