Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime journey to the Chuncho Macaw Clay Lick, one of our premier tours designed to showcase the
breathtaking beauty of Tambopata National Reserve. This stunning destination is a paradise of biodiversity, boasting over 1,500
butterfly species and 650 bird species, including eight vibrant macaw species, such as the striking Scarlet Macaw.
At the Chuncho Macaw Clay Lick, witness an extraordinary spectacle as hundreds of colorful macaws, parrots, and parakeets
flock to the cliffs to consume nutrient-rich clay. This unique
behavior is essential for their health, as the clay helps these
magnificent birds detoxify by flushing out harmful substances from their bodies.
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.
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.
