Rainforest Expeditions: Immerse Yourself in the Wonders of Nature
Rainforest Expeditions is a company that offers an unforgettable experience for nature lovers. With three Amazon ecolodges located within the Tambopata National Reserve in Peru, Rainforest Expeditions provides a unique opportunity to explore one of the most biodiverse regions on Earth.
The Tambopata National Reserve is home to over 600 species of birds, 200 species of mammals, and countless other forms of wildlife. The reserve covers over 1 million hectares and contains some of the most pristine rainforests in South America. It is also home to indigenous communities who have lived in harmony with nature for centuries.
At Rainforest Expeditions, we believe that responsible tourism can help protect this fragile ecosystem while providing visitors with an unforgettable experience. Our ecolodges are designed to minimize our impact on the environment while providing guests with comfortable accommodations and delicious meals made from locally sourced ingredients.
Our three lodges – Posada Amazonas, Refugio Amazonas, and Tambopata Research Center – offer different levels of comfort and amenities depending on your preferences. All lodges offer guided tours led by experienced naturalists who will help you discover the wonders of the rainforest.
Posada Amazonas is our most accessible lodge, located just two hours from Puerto Maldonado airport. This lodge offers comfortable rooms with private bathrooms and hot water showers. Guests can enjoy activities such as canopy tower climbing, oxbow lake visits, ethnobotanical walks, and wildlife watching.
Refugio Amazonas is located deeper into the rainforest and requires a four-hour boat ride from Puerto Maldonado followed by a short walk through the forest. This lodge offers more spacious rooms with private bathrooms as well as a bar/lounge area where guests can relax after a day exploring the jungle.
Tambopata Research Center is our most remote lodge located deep in the heart of the Tambopata National Reserve. This lodge offers rustic accommodations with shared bathrooms and no electricity (although there is a generator for charging devices). Guests can participate in research projects led by our team of biologists or explore the surrounding rainforest on guided hikes.
All of our lodges offer delicious meals made from locally sourced ingredients. Our chefs use traditional Amazonian ingredients such as plantains, yucca, and fish to create unique and flavorful dishes.
In addition to our lodges, Rainforest Expeditions also offers custom itineraries for those who want to explore more of Peru's natural wonders. We can arrange trips to Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca, or other destinations depending on your interests.
At Rainforest Expeditions, we are committed to sustainable tourism practices that benefit both visitors and the environment. We work closely with local communities to ensure that tourism provides economic benefits while preserving cultural traditions. We also support conservation efforts through partnerships with organizations such as The Amazon Conservation Association.
