Detailed Itinerary

DAY 1

Arrival to the Vibrant Forest of Puerto Maldonado! (B, L, D)

“Enjoy the Canopy Tower, a world-renowned birding destination”

Take your flight from Lima to Puerto Maldonado (1.40h). The recommended schedule for the flight is departing at 08:05 am and arriving at 10:45 am.

Once you arrive you will be assisted by tourism professionals, community members, biologists and tour guides. You will be brought from the airport to an office in Puerto Maldonado. There the tour guides will invite you to pack only your necessary things for your next few days in the jungle and leave the rest at our safe storage room. This is necessary to maintain the boat and cargo light.

Next step is the transfer to the Tambopata River Port Skirting Puerto Maldonado. To get there we drive 20 kilometers, entering the Native Community of Infierno. Then there is a forty five minute boat ride from the Tambopata Port to Posada Amazonas, which will take you into the Community’s Primary Forest Private Reserve.

Canopy Tower

You will receive a short briefing, then you have to be prepared to enjoy the most amazing experience with incredible views of the rainforest from 30 meters above the ground.

The canopy tower is located twenty minutes away from Posada Amazonas. A banister staircase running through the middle provides safe access to the platforms above. From atop you obtain spectacular views of the vast expanses of standing forest cut by the Tambopata River winding through the middle. Now and then toucans, parrots or macaws are seen flying against the horizon, or mixed species canopy flocks land in the treetop next to you.

Ecotourism Lecture

The project about the ecotourism of Infierno is available every night conducted by a staff member.

Overnight at Posada Amazonas Lodge

DAY 2

Delight With the Excursion of Tres Chimbadas Oxbow Lake (B, BL, D)

“Experience the true lush Amazon jungle”

From Posada Amazonas Tres Chimbadas is located thirty minutes away by boat, plus forty five minutes walking distance. Once you get there you will travel around the lake in a catamaran, searching for the resident family of nine giant river otters (seen by 60% of lake visitors) and other lakeside wildlife. Otters are most active from dawn to 08:00 or 09:00 pm.

Parrot Clay Lick

The parrot clay Lick is located only twenty minutes away from Posada Amazonas. Along the way you will find parrots and parakeets descend on most clear mornings to ingest the clay on a river bank.

Also you may see the Blue-headed Parrot and Dusky headed Parakeet descend at this clay lick. The clay lick is active at dawn, during the late mornings and mid-afternoons.

Ethno botanical Tour

The communal organization of the Centro Ñape is famous for the production of medicines from forest plants and administers them to patients.

They have created a nature trail that explains the different medicinal (and other) uses of selected plants.

Night Walk

It is optional to go for a night walk if you want give it a try to maybe see some of the rarely seen mammals. In any case it is much easier to find frogs with shapes
and sounds as bizarre as their natural histories.

Overnight at Posada Amazonas Lodge

DAY Day 3

Time to Leave the Jungle (B)

Time to say goodbye to the Jungle

This is the last morning in Posada Amazonas. After breakfast you will take the boat to Puerto Maldonado headquarters. You will be transferred to the airport to take your flight from Puerto Maldonado to Lima (departing at 11:25 am and arriving at 14:15 pm) or any other destination.

Note: The rainy season is from mid-October to mid-March and the heaviest months of rain are January and February.

Highly recommended!!! We had an absolutely perfect experience with this tour agency for our trip to Machu Picchu. From the initial organization all the way through to the end of the trip, everything ran smoothly and was perfectly taken care of. Communication throughout the process was excellent, and our guide was always on time, which made everything stress-free. A special mention goes to Ibrahim, our guide, who was fantastic — he taught us so much about the Inca civilization and the history of Machu Picchu, making the whole experience even more meaningful. Highly recommended for anyone planning a trip to Machu Picchu!

EXTRAORDINARIO Extraordinario servicio de Lizbeth, desde el comienzo de la planificación, hasta cada detalle pensado para que todo salga mas que bien. Un viaje de lujo. Desde los paseos hasta la gastronomía, el guia Franco y el chofer Elisban hicieron todo y más, para que estemos contentos y honrados de estar en Peru. Gracias totales Lizbeth por estar pendiente durante toda nuestra estadia. Recomendable 100%

A Dream Trip Backed by an Amazing Team Our trip to Peru was planned and flawlessly managed by Lizbeth. From the very beginning, her attention to detail, prompt communication, and willingness to help exceeded every expectation. The itinerary was outstanding and allowed us to experience the very best of Peru. Unfortunately, our vacation was unexpectedly interrupted when I suffered a medical emergency that required an urgent evacuation from Machu Picchu. From that moment on, Lizbeth and her team were simply extraordinary. They immediately coordinated my medical care, arranged all necessary logistics, and ensured that Auri representatives stayed with us throughout the entire process. We never felt alone. Their professionalism, compassion, and constant support turned an overwhelming situation into one that was manageable. What impressed us most was that their commitment did not end when our trip was over. For weeks afterward, Lizbeth continued to assist us by gathering the documentation needed for my insurance claim and following up until the claim was successfully resolved. That level of dedication is incredibly rare. We hope to return to Peru one day, and when we do, there is no question that we will travel with Lizbeth and her team again. They don't just organize exceptional trips—they genuinely care about their clients and stand by them when it matters most. We recommend them without hesitation.

Magical Peru Incredible experience. Every detail was thought out. Some unforeseen issues with an internal flight that was cancelled and the agency handled rescheduling. Lizabeth was great from beginning g to end of trip. She checked in and tweaked things as needed to ensure a great experience. Wonderful country and wonderful people.

Unforgettable experience! We are very happy with our experience with Auri travels! First of all, it was very nice to feel well taken care of: from the moment we landed in Perú to the moment we go to airport again, everything was sorted for us! This allowed us both to feel safe and to enjoy a stress-free trip! Plus, every day we took part in unforgettable tours with knowledgeable guides. Lizbeth was available all the time and flexible with us when we need anything. Also, she surprised us twice with some presents from the travel agency team. A trip of a lifetime that we will never forget 😍*

The planning process with Lisbeth was seamless and well-organized, making everything easy and stress-free from the very beginning. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, which allowed us to fully relax and enjoy the experience. Our drivers and guides were exceptional—professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. They went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and informed throughout the journey. Every activity and experience exceeded our expectations. From the breathtaking sights of Peru to the overall atmosphere, everything was truly amazing. This trip created unforgettable memories, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a well-coordinated and enjoyable adventure.

Peruvian AMAZON ADVENTURE Lizbeth from Auri Peru Travel helped me arrange a 3-day tour in the Peruvian Amazon, and everything was excellent. The hotel staff were incredibly kind, friendly, and always willing to help. The cabins were comfortable, and the food was very good, especially considering the price. The tour guides were also very informative and knowledgeable, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Lizbeth was outstanding throughout the trip. She stayed in constant contact and regularly checked in to make sure everything was going smoothly. Thank you, Lizbeth, for helping make my Amazon jungle adventure such a memorable experience! I highly recommend Auri Peru Travel to anyone planning a trip to Peru.

Great family trip to Machu Picchu and Rainbow Mountains Auri Peru helped us complete a great trip to Machu Picchu and Rainbow Mountains organized. Their guides, transport, food and overall planning were awesome. Lizbeth Masias coordinated the whole trip flawlessly and professionally 👍😍🤩

WOW Our trip to Peru was a truly breathtaking adventure. We were so lucky to rely on Auri expertise in planning the trip to the minute detail. Starting in Lima with its palpable and vibrant energy to the lushes of Amazon basin and to ascending beauty of Machu Picchu, Cusco and Titicaca - everything was perfectly planned and flawlessly executed. Our point of contact, Lizbeth was extraordinary. Her support around the clock was something we never experienced. For those who are planning to visit Peru, marvel the sunrise over Machu Picchu, explore the cobbled streets of Cusco and Sacred Valley, navigate the pristine waters of Titicaca and immerse into Peruvian food scene Auri will be your the best and only bet.

Amazing trip of a lifetime in Peru carefully curated by Auri Peri Travel Oustanding experience with Lizbeth at Auri Peri Travel. It truly was a carefully curated family trip of a lifetime and one that I would highly recommend. We stayed in Belmond hotels throughout Peru and they were amazing. Highly highly recommend staying at the Belmond at the top of Machu Picchu. After hiking 16km to the summit, this hotel was a welcome refuge and allowed us to break up the hike and the tour around Machu Picchu into 2 days. It is a very small hotel so book early. The only part of the trip I would not recommend was the last 3 nights we spent on the "Pure Amazon" boat. It was not worth the lengthy travel to and from and also was not a good financial value. There was nothing much to see. The boat is beautiful and we met another family that made the time onboard fun but other than that not something I would recommend.
