After lunch you will take a walk along the natural trails, where you will discover and learn about the primary and secondary forest, its components, uses, man-made transformations, and its relevance to the world.

Get to know exotic species and their fascinating history on this tour.
In the afternoon, after lunch, immerse yourself in the culture of the Peruvian Amazon during our artisanal fishing experience, a practice that few travelers enjoy but will teach you how magical it can be to explore the rivers and streams in the Bajo Madre de Dios.

GOOD TO KNOW
Included, and beyond
Track Tambopata's wildlife on its own terms
Wild Amazonia moves past the river-bank routes most visitors never leave. Local guides take you deeper into the Tambopata National Reserve, into the sections of rainforest where the animals haven't adjusted their behavior for a passing boat.
Timed to the rainforest, not a schedule
Caimans surface after dark. Macaws gather at first light. This tour is built around those hours — extended night walks along the Madre de Dios River, early departures for the moments most itineraries sleep through.
Who this tour is for
For travelers who've already seen the postcard version of the Amazon rainforest and want past it — wildlife photographers, naturalists, and anyone who'd rather find a caiman's eyes in a spotlight than a swimming pool.
