A Tambopata 3-day jungle tour packs a canopy tower, a river search for caimans, Lake Sandoval and a parrot clay lick into two nights at a jungle lodge.

This Tambopata 3-day jungle tour is built around the rhythm of the rainforest: afternoon on the river, a long morning at the lake, and a very early start to watch parrots at the clay lick. Two nights at the lodge are included, along with six meals.

On arrival in Puerto Maldonado, the guide collects you and drives to the office for registration. After lunch comes the canopy tower, 35 metres high, and a zip-line run through the forest. Later a boat follows the Madre de Dios River to look for caimans on the banks, and with luck a capybara.

Day two begins with a short walk to Lake Sandoval, a piranha habitat inside the Tambopata National Reserve. From a rowing boat with the guide you scan for hoatzins, herons, eagles, howler and squirrel monkeys, tamarins and sloths, and, with luck, giant otters swimming past. Lunch is back at the lodge, and a night walk after dark reveals insects, amphibians and reptiles.

  • Canopy tower and zip-line
  • Boat trip in search of caimans
  • Rowing boat on Lake Sandoval

On the last morning you reach the clay lick while it is still early, then return to the lodge for breakfast and take the boat back to Puerto Maldonado. The package covers transfers, park entry and the gear for each outing; getting to Puerto Maldonado by flight or bus is up to you.
