Visit the Oxbow lake and learn to design tattoos with natural inks. Explore the World's Largest Clay Lick and start a thirty minute walk to the 25 meter Canopy Tower, from where you will be able to appreciate the diverse wildlife. Take an Ethnobotanical Tour and learn about the ecosystem and several medicinal plants.
Upon arrival at the Puerto Maldonado Airport, your expert guide will welcome you and then drive you to our headquarters, where you may leave any unnecessary luggage. We will then continue to the Tambopata River Port, where we enter into the native community of Infierno. We will then start our two and a half hour boat ride to Refugio Amazonas. Upon arrival at our lodge, you will receive a full briefing of important navigation and security tips before enjoying a delicious dinner. During the evening, you will be treated to a nocturnal jungle experience as we head out in the search of caimans with our headlamps and flashlights.
Today, we head out and paddle around Oxbow Lake on a canoe, or a catamaran to encounter the wide array of Amazonian wildlife such as hoatzin, caiman, horned screamers and hoping to have one of the rare otter sightings. Keep your eyes on the sky as you will also be rewarded with overhead sightings of beautiful macaws. In the early afternoon, we will take a boat back to the Refugio Amazonas. Afterwards, we will then embark on a thirty-minute walk to the 25-meter Canopy Tower, where you will have a magnificent view of different birds, such as toucans, macaws, and raptors. Just a few minutes from the lodge lives Don Manuel, who grows a variety of popular and exotic Amazon produce. We then head on a trail so you can explore the huge variety of plants and trees. After dinner, you will have the opportunity to attend a night lecture (optional) that discusses conservation threats and opportunities as well as projects in the Tambopata National Reserve.
At dawn, you will cross the river and enjoy the World's Largest Clay Lick where hundreds of parrots and macaws, up to seventeen different species, can be seen. Here we will watch as the parrots fly in from all directions and land in the trees above. When a few hundred have gathered and the noise builds to a crescendo a small group of Severe and Red-bellied Macaws will break free from the loafers in the trees and make long slow circles in front of the lick. Once these first brave pioneers land on the lick, the parrots will rain down by the dozens to join them. Mealy Amazons, Blue-headed Caiques, conures, and macaws will mix in a noisy blur of colorful wings as they rush in to get their fill of the precious clay. After an hour, the birds will drift away and leave the area in an eerie silence. Once this early morning rush of activity ends, we will head back to the lodge for breakfast. In the late morning, we head to a Peccary Clay Lick, located nearby the lodge. These wild rainforest pigs show up in herds of five to twenty to eat clay in the late morning. Chances of spotting them are around 15%, but well worth the short hike as other wildlife may also present themselves including deer, guan, and parakeets. After lunch, we will head on a short boat ride to Quebrada Gato for a thrilling afternoon of fishing.
Today, we head to the Tambopata River Port and back to the headquarters where you can pick up your belongings, and then we continue to thePuerto Maldonado Airport in time for your domestic flight.
