Itinerary

Day 1Monkey Island

Meet us at the airport or bus station and we will transfer you to the office of the Monte Amazonico Lodge, where you will receive all the essential tour information. From there, you will take a scenic one-hour boat ride to the lodge, where you will be greeted with a refreshing local fruit juice.

Once you have settled into your room, you will go on a two-hour guided hike through the dense tropical forest with one of our expert local guides. You’ll see towering trees, some of which are over 500 years old, and you may even spot toucans, orioles, parrots, monkeys, snakes and butterflies. This hike allows you to experience the magic of the Amazon right inside the huge 278,000-hectare Tambopata National Reserve.

After lunch, we will visit ‘Monkey Island’, located just across the Madre de Dios River from the lodge. Here, you can observe several species of monkey, such as brown capuchins, squirrel monkeys, saddle-back tamarins and white-faced capuchins, up close.

As night falls, join us for a caiman search along the riverbanks. If you’re lucky, you might even spot a capybara, the world’s largest rodent, which can weigh up to 60 kilos! Then, head back to the lodge for dinner and a restful night.

Day 2Sandonval Lake

After an early breakfast, take a short boat ride to the entrance of Lake Sandoval. After checking in at the checkpoint, enjoy a 3 km walk through the jungle to the lake, which is one of the largest in the Tambopata National Reserve and is home to piranhas.

Once you arrive, your guide will take you out in a rowing boat to explore the lake and spot amazing wildlife such as hoatzins, cormorants, pumas, herons, eagles, howler monkeys, squirrel monkeys, black capuchins, tamarins and sloths.

If you’re lucky, you might catch sight of the endangered giant river otters, which can grow to almost two metres in length, or even the largest alligator on record, which is over four metres long!

After this unforgettable experience, you will return to the lodge for a traditional lunch before heading back to the city.
