MADRE DE DIOS - PUERTO MALDONADO
Puerto Maldonado is a small town in the dense Amazon forest of
south-eastern Peru, not far from the Bolivian and Brazilian borders.
Sometimes referred to as the gateway to Peru's ecological paradise, Puerto
Maldonado is, in short, the Garden of Eden of Peru.
The town is easily accessible from Cusco (also spelled Cuzco) and Lima, and
unforgettable holidays to Puerto Maldonado are popular with travelers anxious to
discover the world of a tropical jungle.
Jungle lodges near the town offer visitors the opportunity to witness what must
seem like the dawn of time as seen through the area's lush vegetation and
prolific jungle wildlife.
Located at the confluence of the Tambopata and Madre de Dios Rivers, Puerto
Maldonado is also the gateway to several national parks in the Amazon River
Basin, including the Tambopata-Candamo National Reserve, the Bahuaja-Sonene and
the Pampas del Heath, all areas with unique species and an extraordinary degree
of biodiversity.
In addition to experiencing the natural wonders of the tropical wilds, travel to
Puerto Maldonado allows visitors to soak up local color and culture, with
festivals, opportunities to sample local dishes and possible glimpses of the
aboriginal jungle natives and their ancestral customs.

RAINFOREST TOURS & EXPEDITIONS |
Nature is our passion, people our
commitment. At Rainforest Expeditions we build sanctuaries that host unique
experiences, engage local communities, and help hosts and guests learn to
value their relation with the Earth.
Our guides are biologists, tourism professionals, or community members. All
are trained in-house with a four month process that includes one month of
field classes and a three month internship. Unless noted otherwise, our
guides speak English. We assign guides at 10:1 ratio in Posada Amazonas and
Refugio Amazonas, and at a 6:1 ratio at Tambopata Research Center. This
means groups smaller than 10 people (or 6 people in TRC) will be merged with
other groups under one guide. If you would like a private guide, a
specialist guide or a guide in a language other than English please let us
know. |
