Your Travel Experience with Finest Journeys
Transfer to Puerto Maldonado
After breakfast, transfer from your hotel to Cusco Airport for your flight to Puerto Maldonado. On arrival, you will be met at the airport and taken on a short drive to our headquarters, where you can safely store any luggage not needed for the next few days. This helps keep the boats light for the journey ahead. From there, we continue by vehicle to the Tambopata River Port, passing through the native community of Infierno. A 45-minute boat ride along the river brings us to Posada Amazonas, located within the community’s primary forest reserve. At the lodge, the manager will greet you and share important navigation and safety information before you settle in. After lunch, enjoy a guided walk to the nearby 30-meter canopy tower. Climbing the platforms gives you sweeping views of the rainforest and the Tambopata River. From this height, it is common to see toucans, parrots, macaws, and other bird species flying overhead or perched in the treetops nearby. In the evening, return to the lodge for dinner, followed by a presentation about the Infierno ecotourism project, delivered by a member of the local community.
