Following the meal, we’ll take a rowing boat and explore the lake, searching for bird species like hoatzines, cormorants, anhingas, and, with luck, the highlight of Lake Sandoval—the playful River Otters.

For those interested, there’s an optional night walk available. Finally, we’ll have dinner and spend the night at the lodge.
On the third day, our activities will begin at 8:30 in the morning at our lodging, the remarkable AMAZON GARDEN LODGE. We will embark on a three-hour tour, beginning with an hour-long journey by boat to puerto maldonad and then we take a bus along the interoceanic highway, followed by a tranquil route with minimal traffic that will lead us to the banks of the Tambopata river. There, our boat and skilled driver will be eagerly awaiting us, ready to transport us upstream for approximately 30 minutes until we reach our Lodge.” Along the way, we will have the opportunity to witness a variety of riverside birds, capybaras, and white caimans. Upon our arrival at the lodge, a refreshing welcome drink will be provided, along with a brief overview of the services available during our stay.

After a satisfying lunch, we will take a short break before embarking on a walk through a primary forest adorned with ancient trees. Throughout the trek, our knowledgeable guide will share insightful information about significant economic activities in our region, such as agriculture, mining, logging, chestnut gathering (Brazil nut), and ecotourism. Additionally, this excursion presents an excellent opportunity to spot monkeys and other mammals thriving in their natural habitats.
As the sun begins to set, we will return to the lodge to retrieve our flashlights, preparing for an evening adventure. We will venture out to observe alligators, capybaras, and perhaps even catch a glimpse of a feline predator prowling near the riverside in search of prey.
Following a satisfying dinner, for those still energized and interested, we can embark on a short nocturnal hike. This excursion will provide the chance to discover insects, arachnids, tarantulas, and potentially encounter creatures such as snakes, armadillos, night monkeys, or even tapirs in close proximity to the lodge.
We will get up very early and after a delicious coffee, we will continue upstream at 4:30 am for about an hour, with all the sunrise just for us in our boat, the landscape is spectacular and why not say it… we have 20% of chances to see a jaguar or perhaps an anaconda on the shores of our Tambopata National Reserve.
Arriving at our destination, we will find a whole show of parrots and macaws and we will learn closely the reasons why these birds, and many other mammals, need the clay of this wall in their daily diet throughout the year. It is a spectacular show that entertains us from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. approx. Our delicious breakfast will be in front of the Collpa Chuncho.
Having already finished our activity here, we will have a short visit to the checkpoint to learn more in a small museum that is located in this place. We will continue to our lodge to taste our lunch and after a break we can visit the waterfall of the Quebrada el Gato to take a refreshing bath and then learn about some products that are grown in this rich land of Madre de Dios.
