3-Day Sandoval Lake Tour, Two Nights in the Rainforest
From €295 per person
See availability →A 3-day Sandoval Lake tour with two nights at a lodge on the Madre de Dios River: forest hikes, Monkey Island, a caiman search, a rowing boat and a canopy walkway.
This 3-day Sandoval Lake tour packs a lot into a short Amazon stay, with two nights at a lodge reached by a one-hour boat ride from the port. A fruit juice welcome opens the first day, then a two-hour guided hike through dense forest passes trees over five hundred years old, with toucans, parrots, monkeys, snakes and butterflies possible.
After lunch the group visits Monkey Island, across the Madre de Dios River, home to brown capuchins, squirrel monkeys, saddle-back tamarins and white capuchins. After dark comes a caiman search along the riverbank, and you need to bring a flashlight. Day two heads to Lake Sandoval on a 3 km walk, then a rowing boat with the guide for birds, monkeys and, if you are lucky, the family of giant river otters, followed by a night walk for insects and amphibians.
- Lake Sandoval, in the Tambopata National Reserve
- Monkey Island and a night caiman search
- The Canopy Walk-Way, about 30 meters high, on the last morning
