Puerto Maldonado

Easily reached from Cusco or Machu Picchu, Puerto Maldonado is a gateway to the Amazon. From the Madre de Dios River bridge, lodges are just a short boat ride away. The nearby Tambopata Reserve provides a relaxed, enriching jungle experience for couples, families, and first-time visitors.

What to Do

The Amazon rainforest is a vast, biodiverse region rich in wildlife, culture, and history. From jungle treks to river villages, every journey is unique. Let us help you plan a custom tour that matches your interests and brings the Amazon to life.

Jungle Hikes

The rainforest is full of fascinating plants and animals, and a great way to discover them is on foot. Guided hikes reveal giant insects, medicinal plants, and hidden waterfalls.

Boat Trips

The rivers and tributaries of the Amazon offer a great way to explore the rainforest from a new perspective. Take a canoe down the Amazon River or navigate smaller jungle streams.

Birdwatching

The Amazon rainforest is home to over 1,500 species of birds, making it a birdwatcher’s paradise. Spot macaws, toucans, and parrots among many other colorful species.

Visit Indigenous Communities

The Peruvian Amazon is home to numerous indigenous communities who have lived here for generations, preserving a rich cultural heritage deeply tied to the forest.

Fishing

The rivers of the Amazon are teeming with fish, and fishing is popular with both locals and visitors. Try catching piranhas, catfish, and other species, then enjoy a fresh fish dinner at the lodge.

Wildlife Spotting

The Peruvian Amazon is home to incredible wildlife—monkeys, sloths, jaguars, and countless birds. Guided tours let you spot these creatures in their natural habitat.

Night Walks

When the sun sets, the jungle transforms. Night walks reveal a different side of the rainforest, where frogs, insects, snakes, and tarantulas come alive—an unforgettable, sensory-rich experience.

Canopy Walks

Canopy walkways offer a unique look at the rainforest from above, with chances to spot monkeys, birds, and incredible views at sunrise or sunset.

Visit a Wildlife Rescue Center

Rescue centers in the Peruvian Amazon care for animals affected by injury or trafficking. A visit offers a close look at monkeys, sloths, parrots, and more—while supporting vital conservation efforts.

FAQ’s

Here are the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about visiting the Amazon Rainforest:

Some lodges fill up quickly, especially in high season (May to September). We recommend booking 2–3 months in advance to secure your preferred lodge and activities. For peak wildlife seasons or holiday travel, even earlier is better.

The dry season, which runs from May to October, is generally considered the best time to visit. During this time, there is less rain and the weather is cooler and less humid. However, it’s important to note that even during the dry season, rain is still possible, so be sure to bring rain gear.

Yes! Many lodges welcome families and offer kid-friendly activities. However, some remote or rustic lodges may not be ideal for young children or travelers with mobility issues. Let us know your needs, and we’ll recommend the best fit.

While many activities in the Amazon rainforest require a good level of physical fitness, there are also plenty of options for visitors with different levels of ability. It’s important to discuss any mobility concerns with your tour operator before booking your trip to ensure that you can participate in the activities you are interested in.

To enter the Amazon region, you just need a valid passport and any required visas for Peru. If you’re traveling to remote lodges or reserves, some areas may require permits, which we arrange for you when you book a tour.

We take care of every detail — from flights and transfers to lodge bookings and expert guides — so you don’t have to navigate the complexities of remote travel. You get personalized support, insider knowledge, and a seamless adventure tailored to you.
