Day 1: Puerto Maldonado to Sandoval Lake Reserve – Journey into Nature

Begin your adventure with a warm welcome at Puerto Maldonado’s airport or bus terminal. Our friendly representative will transfer you to our office, where you can securely store any unnecessary luggage. Bring a small backpack for your personal items as we prepare for your Amazon wildlife journey.

Next, we board a motorboat for a scenic ride along the Madre de Dios River, where the vibrant sights and sounds of the rainforest unfold before you. Watch for monkeys, turtles, caimans, and a wide variety of birds along the way. Our journey continues to the Sandoval Lake Reserve, where we pass through a checkpoint and take a 3 km walk (about 1.5 hours) to reach the lake.

Once at Sandoval Lake, we board a canoe to reach our eco-lodge, Maloka Lodge. After settling in and enjoying lunch, we’ll venture back onto the lake to observe the incredible wildlife, including giant river otters, black caimans, and the unique prehistoric bird, the shansho. The canoe ride offers the chance to see birds like herons, cormorants, and kingfishers in their natural habitat.

As evening sets in, we’ll embark on a nocturnal caiman observation. This thrilling activity gives you the opportunity to see these elusive, nocturnal creatures up close. Afterward, we return to the lodge for a delicious dinner and rest for the night.

Day 2: Macaw Palm Tree, Giant River Otters & Amazon Wildlife

Rise early to visit the Macaw Palm Tree Clay Lick (Collpa de Palmeras), where vibrant macaws and parrots gather to eat mineral-rich sawdust from the palm trees. This vital source of nutrients helps the birds digest their food and neutralize toxins from unripe fruits.

After returning to the lodge for breakfast, we embark on a wildlife exploration of Sandoval Lake Reserve. Keep your eyes peeled for monkeys, wild boars, tapirs, and even the elusive spectacled bear. The diversity of wildlife here is truly remarkable.

Enjoy a relaxing lunch back at the lodge, followed by a refreshing dip in Sandoval Lake (don’t worry, there are no dangerous animals here). In the afternoon, we board a canoe to cross the lake and enjoy a stunning Amazon sunset, creating unforgettable memories of the tranquil surroundings.

As night falls, we return to the lodge for dinner and prepare for another caiman observation under the moonlight. This magical experience provides a deeper connection to the night-time ecosystem of the Amazon.

Day 3: Giant River Otters, Macaw Palm Tree & Return to Puerto Maldonado

On the final day of your Amazon adventure, we rise early again in hopes of spotting the giant otter family as they begin their day. The early morning light reveals the rainforest’s beauty and provides a unique opportunity to observe animals foraging for food.

We then take a short walk to the Macaw Palm Tree Clay Lick, where you’ll witness an amazing spectacle of macaws and parrots feeding on the mineral-rich palms. Afterward, we retrace our steps, walking back to the Madre de Dios River, where a motorboat will take us back to Puerto Maldonado.

Upon arrival in Puerto Maldonado, you’ll retrieve your luggage from our office, and we will transport you to the airport or bus station, concluding your unforgettable 3-day wildlife journey in the Peruvian Amazon.
