Tambopata National Reserve 2-Day Tour with Sandoval Lake
From €197 per person
See availability →A Tambopata National Reserve 2-day tour from Puerto Maldonado: a night at an Amazon lodge, then a rowing boat on Sandoval Lake in search of giant otters and caimans.
This Tambopata National Reserve 2-day tour is a quick way into the Amazon. You are met at the airport or bus station in Puerto Maldonado and taken to Puerto Capitania, where a motorized riverboat sails for 30 minutes on the Madre de Dios River to the lodge and its 10 hectares.
After a welcome and a lunch prepared by the lodge chef with local ingredients, the group plans the afternoon and evening activities, which include guided night walks. The next morning begins early with a visit to the reserve and Sandoval Lake. There you switch to a smaller rowing boat with the guide and hope for giant otters, plus caimans, piranhas, tapirs, turtles, herons and plenty of other birds, with a bit of luck. Snakes and howler monkeys may appear on the way.
