We’ll pick you up from your hotel early in the morning in a private van, and travel through the Andes Mountains.  Breakfast is in the charming town of Paucartambo. You can enjoy a hot drink, eggs, pancakes, juice, and more. Breakfast isn’t included in the price of the tour. 

The trip will continue into the Cloud Forest, where the scenery and climate change quickly. In the Cloud Forest, there will be chances to explore and look for wild animals like monkeys and birds, including the bright-red Andean Cock of the Rock. In the late afternoon, we’ll arrive at the first lodge for dinner and some time to relax.

After breakfast, our journey continues into the jungle. Passing through the small towns of Patria and Pilcopata, there will be a chance to stop at a basic pharmacy or shop if needed. 

Our boat will be waiting in the port town of Atalaya. The trip down the Madre de Dios River is a beautiful way to enjoy the jungle. Along the way, we’ll be on the lookout for animals on the riverbanks, such as water birds and capybara.

In the late morning, we’ll pay a visit to a local hot spring, and enjoy lunch on the boat afterwards. After a couple more hours, we’ll arrive close to Nuevo Eden and walk from the riverbank to the Bungalow where you’ll have some time to relax. 

In the late afternoon, we’ll set off to the camouflage house overlooking a clay lick. It is a tall platform with a roof and railings for 1 night to enjoy being outdoors overnight, looking out for tapirs and other mammals visiting the clay lick for a midnight snack.  We will bring a “picnic dinner” and enjoy a 360-degree experience sleeping in the jungle. You will be provided with moquito nets and a mattress, you will need a sleeping bag* and a camping pillow.  

*Can be rented

The chef will meet you at the Camouflage house with breakfast.  After breakfast, you’ll enjoy walking in the jungle while heading back to the lodge. We’ll head to the boat to continue downriver, deep into the jungle. Along the way, we’ll have the chance to see caimans, monkeys, and, with a lot of luck, a jaguar. Lunch will be served on the boat. We’ll arrive at the lodge in the late afternoon, where you can settle in and rest before dinner.

We’ll make the most of this special chance to be deep in the jungle, surrounded by pristine nature. We’ll visit Salvador Oxbow Lake in the morning, riding a silent “pontoon” boat and looking for Giant River Otters and birds. From there, we’ll follow a path back to the lodge, always searching for animals.

After lunch, we’ll embark on another jungle trek to an observation tower where we can see the surrounding nature from an aerial view. Dinner will be at the lodge.

Early in the morning, we’ll take our boat back upriver, again on the lookout for jaguars and other animals. Lunch will be on the boat, and we’ll arrive in Nuevo Eden in the afternoon to rest, explore, and enjoy a jungle-themed dinner. 

 You’ll embark on the boat early in the morning to enjoy sunrise and breakfast on the river, retracing your steps to return to Cusco, where you’ll be dropped off at your hotel.
