Explore the Wonders of Tambopata

The name Tambopata originates from the iconic Tambopata River, which flows down from the snow-capped Pelechuco mountains in

the Peruvian-Bolivian highlands. With an altitude exceeding 3,900

meters, the river descends into the lush Amazon rainforest. In

Quechua, “Tambo” translates to “resting place,” while “Pata” means “high place,” reflecting the region’s natural beauty.

Engage with the Ese Eja Community

The Tambopata Rainforest is also home to the Ese Eja, an indigenous community that has thrived in this rich environment for

generations. Meaning “jungle people,” the Ese Eja include the communities of Sonene and Infierno. Traditionally reliant on

fishing, farming, and hunting, they are now embracing tourism, allowing visitors to learn about their culture and way of life.

At Tambopata Lodge, we proudly employ members of the Ese Eja as boatmen and chefs, giving them opportunities to share their

unique knowledge and traditions while introducing them to the broader world beyond the Amazon Peru Rainforest.
