Upon arrival to the “City of Kings” you will have the opportunity to appreciate the food, culture, architecture and art in the capital of the World’s most diverse country. A short flight then sees you arriving to the town of Puerto Maldonado located in the southern part of the Peruvian Amazon basin. |

The lodge is about an hour’s bus ride and 2 hour motorised canoe ride from Puerto Maldonado adjacent to the Tambopata National Park. A compact yet thorough excursion, featuring superb activities and explorations, that permits you to discover a wide diversity of ecosystems subsisting in the Amazon rainforest, and to explore the rich biodiversity within the Tambopata region. The wildlife is amazing, from giant and colorful parrots, to toucans, macaws, tapir, tamarin, owl, the giant otter, as well as a large variety of monkeys all possible sightings. A range of optional activities are also available. |

No other place on Earth combines such spectacular natural beauty with such intrigue. Over a distance of only 45km and reaching elevations around 4200m you will traverse and transcend both space and time as you experience the same stunning views and inexplicable sense of power the ancient Incas did on their pilgrimage to Machu Picchu during the height of the Incan Empire. Overnight at Machu Picchu with the option to return to the ruins before returning to Cusco for a free day. |
