Day 1 :

Puerto Maldonado

Your guide will be waiting for you at the airport to take you to our office located approximately 5 minutes away in the city of Puerto Maldonado. Here we will register and do some last minute shopping for things you might have forgotten such as batteries or raingear. You will be able to leave your big suitcases are backpacks in our office and just take what you need to the lodge.

Afterwards we will take an unpaved road to Puerto Nuevo, our port in the Infierno Community, the journey will take about one hour. On our journey we can see various types of woodland, traditional banana and citrus plantations, cattle ranches and small creeks.

Once in Puerto Nuevo we will embark our boat for a 1 1/2 hour trip up the mighty Tambopata.

During the boat ride we will also have lunch, consisting of delicious vegetarian “Arroz Chaufa” wrapped in the leaf of the bijao heliconia. There will also be fruit, crackers and a bottle of water.

We will enter the buffer zone of the Tambobata National Reserve and the Bahuaja Sonene National Park. During our journey we will appreciate the vegetation on the river banks consisting mainly of patches of canes, Cecropias and Ficus. We might also see wildlife such as river birds like the oropendulas and their hanging nesting colonies, egrets, herons,  toucans or the magnificent macaws might fly over too.

Once we arrive at the lodge,  the manager will be waiting to greet us and your guide will tell about the dos and don’ts in the jungle in order for you to enjoy your stay to the maximum. He will also lead you around the installations and show you your room.

In the afternoon we will head out into the jungle for a small walk in order to observe the flora such as immense Ironwood or Kapok trees and birds such as Trogons, quails and wild turkeys. Once night falls we can also find spiders such as tarantulas and other nocturnal creatures. After dinner your guide will give you a small explanation about what to expect and explain the various activities during your stay.

Day 2 :

La Torre Clay Lick + tres chimbadas lake

We will leave the lodge very early in the morning to go fifteen minutes upriver in order to observe the activity of the macaws, parrots, parakeets and the occasional mammal feeding on the earth. La Torre Clay Lick is a mud bank about four meters high and twenty meters wide criss crossed with veins of mineral rich clay essential to the diet of these animals.

On site we have a hideout at a distance of thirty meters which keeps us hidden while at the same time allowing us an unobstructed view of the display in front of us.

During the phenomenon we need to stick to the rules and guidelines set by our guide the previous evening.

Returning to the lodge we will have breakfast and after a short rest head for the La Torre Lakes.

Tres Chimbadas Lake

Its entrance is located fifteen minutes downriver from the Inotawa lodge. We will then walk about 45 minutes to the lake located deep in the jungle. We will pass an eco-tourism concession held by the native people of the Infierno community. They guard and maintain the area thanks also to the income generated by entry fees from tourists.

At the lake itself we will board a traditional catamaran with a single oar in order to move around on the lake following the route indicated by our guide. We will see luscious vegetation and birds such as Snakebirds, herons, kingfishers etc. We might also find reptiles and mammals, above all the illusive giant river otter. The lake happens to be the territory of a clan that can frequently be spotted. It’s also possible to practice catch and release fishing and maybe catch a piranha.

Farm

In the area, traditional agriculture is practiced. We will visit Don Aurelio and his family on their farm. This is a great opportunity to see their harvest and try various exotic fruits from the Amazon such as Copazú, Arazá, Pijuayo, Yucca, and Pineapple. There are also various herbs such as pallilo and false cilantro as well as a range of medicinal plants such as piñón, caña caña and piri piri that are traditionally and widely used by the local people.

The farms also create open spaces for papaya and banana plantations. This is the preferred habitat for birds such as silver beaked tanagers, oreoles, oropendulas, toucanets and various woodpeckers.

Nocturnal boat ride

At night we will head out in the boat to enjoy ourselves and the sounds of the Amazon at night, we might see a thunderstorm spilling out on the horizon or marvel at constellations like the Southern Cross or Scorpion.

We are also carrying a powerful searchlight in case we come across some nocturnal animals such as caimans, bats, nightjars or capybaras on the banks and meanders of the Tambopata River. Afterwards dinner will be served.
