DAY 01: CORTO MALTES IN

Upon arrival, you will be welcomed at the airport and transferred to our office in Puerto Maldonado, where you can leave any unnecessary luggage before boarding at Puerto Bolívar for a 40‑minute boat ride along the Madre de Dios River to the Corto Maltes Amazonía Lodge. There, you will be welcomed with a natural fruit refreshment, followed by a brief orientation and the delivery of the keys to your bungalow. Afterwards, you will enjoy lunch and a short rest before the first excursion. Passengers with flights arriving after 13:00 will receive a boxed lunch in 100% recyclable containers.

In the afternoon, you will begin your first contact with the jungle on a 2‑hour guided walk through the lush vegetation, where you will learn about tropical trees, medicinal plants, and the traditional latex extraction process at a rubber‑tapper camp, one of the most important economic activities in the region.

Upon returning to the lodge, you will have free time to relax in the swimming pool, rest in the hammocks, enjoy a cocktail at the bar, receive a massage, or watch the sunset from the dock. Before dinner, you will take a night boat safari to spot caimans and other species along the riverbanks. The day will end with dinner in the lodge dining room.

The day begins at 5:30 a.m. with coffee or tea before departing to Lake Sandoval. After a 20‑minute boat ride along the Madre de Dios River, we will begin a 3 km trek through the Tambopata National Reserve, where giant trees, monkeys, snakes, and various bird species can be observed.

Upon arriving at the lake, we will board rowing boats in search of giant river otters, as well as other species such as reptiles, mammals, and birds in their natural habitat. At a strategic point, we will enjoy breakfast while appreciating the surrounding scenery. Afterwards, we will return along the same trail to the dock and head back to the lodge for lunch.

In the afternoon, we will visit one of the observation towers, either 20 or 42 meters high, ideal for birdwatching and enjoying a spectacular sunset. We will also visit a Brazil nut harvesting camp, where you will learn about the collection of Brazil nuts, another important economic activity in the region.

Back at the lodge, you will have free time to relax at the pool, enjoy a massage, have a cocktail at the bar, or explore the boutique. The day will end with dinner in the dining room.

After breakfast, we will navigate for 20 minutes along the Madre de Dios River to visit a local farm, where a family grows tropical fruits and native products such as cacao, banana, cocona, breadfruit, and cassava, without chemicals and using traditional techniques. You will learn about their work and taste some of these products before returning to the lodge for lunch.

In the afternoon, we will visit a Machiguenga family, who will share their ancestral customs, language, clothing, hunting techniques, handicrafts, and traditional music used in their ceremonies.

Upon returning to the lodge, you will have free time to relax in the pool, enjoy a cocktail at the bar, explore the boutique, or receive a massage. The day will conclude with dinner in the dining room.

At sunrise, after coffee or tea, we will take a 20‑minute walk to the parrot clay lick, where several species of these colorful birds descend to feed on a special clay, creating a unique natural spectacle.

Afterwards, we will return to the lodge for breakfast and free time before departing by boat to Puerto Maldonado. Once in the city, we will visit the local market during a brief 15‑ to 20‑minute tour, where you will learn about the typical products of the region. Finally, we will head to the airport for check‑in for the return flights.
