Guide to visiting the Amazon rainforest of Tambopata in Peru
20 January 2025 (82 visits)Located in the heart of the Amazon rainforest of Peru, Tambopata is a natural paradise famous for its exceptional biological diversity. Located in the Madre de Dios region of southeastern Peru, Tambopata is home to one of the greatest concentrations of flora and fauna on Earth, making it the ideal destination for those who plan to travel to Peru for an authentic connection with nature.
It is the location of Tambopata that makes it a refuge for so many species of flora and fauna. And it is also its location which makes it the perfect place for responsible ecotourism for nature lovers arriving from all over the world. Here in Tambopata, with our comfortable jungle lodge as their base, visitors can explore the rainforest safely in the company of one of our expert naturalist guides and immerse themselves in this unspoiled part of South America’s great Amazon basin.
Here in the forests of Tambopata, our eco-lodge is situated far from those areas influenced by human activity. We are 68 kilometers by river from the nearest town, Puerto Maldonado, and this means that the plants and animals in the unspoiled rainforest that we have been working to protect for more than 30 years are able to thrive.
And the accessibility of our privileged location means that when you plan a Peru trip, even if you are visiting our country for just a couple of weeks, you can add a jungle trip to your vacation after you’ve seen Machu Picchu and Cusco. The natural wealth and biodiversity of our Tambopata home is incredibly easy to reach by air from Cusco or Lima, meaning that you need just 3 or 4 days to get deep into the Amazon and spend some time with us at our lodge.
