Tambopata Ecoparadise 5D / 4N: Why Go

Tambopata Ecoparadise 5D / 4N

The jungle reserve of Tambopata is located in the South East of Peru, around a 14 hour drive or 1 hour flight from the Andean capital of Cusco. The Reserve is the second-largest in Peru (after Manú National Park) at almost 275 hectares (680 acres) and overflowing with abundant life.


Tambopata is home to the Ese Eja community, as well as over 600 bird species, including parrots, macaws, parakeets, toucans, hummingbirds and eagles; 100 reptile and amphibian species, such as caimans, boa constrictors and anacondas; 170 mammal species including giant otters, pumas, jaguars, tapirs, ocelots and monkeys; 1,200 butterfly species and 20,000 plant species. The reserve includes several types of habitats: old-growth Amazonian rainforest with trees over 30 meters (90 ft.) tall; bamboo groves; rainforests in floodplains; oxbow lakes; palm swamps where blue and gold-bellied macaws nest; and Savannahs in the eastern sector of the park.


Jungle tours into this beautiful piece of nature allow you to experience the magic, diversity and tranquillity of one of the most diverse locations on earth.
