Tambopata, Peru

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Tambopata is a remote rainforest region in the Madre de Dios department of southeastern Peru, bordering Bolivia. It is home to the Tambopata National Reserve, one of the most biodiverse protected areas on Earth, sheltering jaguars, giant river otters, macaws, and thousands of plant and insect species. The region is best known for the Collpa de Guacamayos (Clay Lick), where hundreds of macaws and parrots gather daily — a wildlife spectacle that draws naturalists and photographers from around the world. Travelers come here for jungle lodges, guided wildlife walks, canoe trips along Amazonian rivers, and the chance to experience true wilderness deep in the Peruvian Amazon.

Self-Launched Tambopata Amazon Jungle: 4 Days from Puerto Maldonado

A DIY version of PVTravels' 4-day Tambopata lodge package — same jungle: canopy tower and zip-line, Sandoval Lake in the Tambopata National Reserve, an Ese'Eja family visit, rustic river fishing and the parakeet clay lick — booked direct with a family-run jungle lodge plus a local guide, instead of a fixed group departure. You arrange your own flight or bus from Cusco/Lima to Puerto Maldonado, walk or take a cheap mototaxi into town, and the lodge handles the boat transfers, meals and guided excursions exactly as on the tour version. Book 4-6 weeks ahead in dry season (April-November); January-March is the wettest. All costs are per-person estimates in GBP and exclude international flights.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Tambopata, Peru yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Eat the strangest thing on the menu every single day for a week and document the regret."
