Where to Stay in Tambopata
Tambopata is the southern Amazon, reached through Puerto Maldonado, with direct flights from Lima and Cusco of about an hour. It is the most popular way into the jungle for travelers already going to Cusco or Machu Picchu.
Every place below is a lodge in the forest. Some are on the Madre de Dios River, a short ride from town, and some are much deeper in, like the Tambopata Research Center inside the national reserve. The reserve is known for its clay licks, where hundreds of macaws gather, and for oxbow lakes with giant otters and caimans.
