Can you imagine waking up to the calls of hundreds of macaws flying over the jungle, surrounded by a biodiversity that feels like it’s from another world? Get ready for a once-in-a-lifetime experience with our exclusive tour to the Chuncho Macaw Clay Lick, located in the Tambopata National Reserve, one of the most stunning nature destinations on the planet.
Explore the Peruvian Amazon Like Never Before
This journey is not just a tour — it’s a full immersion into the essence of the Amazon. From the moment you arrive in Puerto Maldonado, whether by air or land, we take care of every detail to ensure your adventure is comfortable, safe, and above all, deeply enriching.
On the way to the Chuncho Clay Lick, you’ll pass through an incredible variety of landscapes and unique ecosystems that reveal the best-kept secrets of the rainforest. This region is home to one of the highest concentrations of biodiversity on Earth, making every step a chance for discovery.
The Magic of Chuncho Clay Lick: A Natural Spectacle Like No Other
The Chuncho Macaw Clay Lick is one of the most spectacular birdwatching sites in the world. At dawn, dozens — and sometimes hundreds — of macaws, parrots, and parakeets gather to feed on the mineral-rich clay found on the riverbanks. This behavior, unique to this region, offers not only an unforgettable visual and auditory show but also holds ecological importance and is the subject of scientific research.
Whether you’re a wildlife photographer, a bird lover, or a curious traveler, witnessing this natural phenomenon is something you’ll never forget.
River Navigation and Encounters with Wildlife
The journey to the clay lick also includes boat rides on crystal-clear rivers, where you can spot caimans, capybaras, monkeys, giant otters, and — if you’re lucky — even the elusive jaguar. Every day in Tambopata brings new surprises, as nature here reveals itself with unmatched strength and beauty.
Our local guides, experts in wildlife and passionate about the jungle, will be with you every step of the way, sharing valuable knowledge about the Amazon ecosystems, native cultures, and conservation efforts that protect this natural treasure.
More Than a Trip: A Connection with the Planet
The Tambopata National Reserve is not just a tourist destination; it’s a living testament to the importance of preserving the world’s green lungs. Visiting it also means contributing to its conservation, learning about and appreciating the crucial role the Amazon plays in global climate balance.
In a world increasingly disconnected from nature, this experience will reconnect you with what truly matters, awakening your environmental awareness and your love for the planet.
