Tambopata National Reserve, located in the southern Peruvian Amazon Basin, is one of the last easily accessible virgin tropical rainforests in the world. The area contains enormous biodiversity and beautiful natural landscapes, spread over a vast 274,690 hectares (678,766 acres).

Considered by Conservation International to be a Global Mega Diversity Hot Spot, the region has remained intact due to limited road access and to the protection offered by several major National Parks, including Manu, Candamo, Tambopata, Amarakaeri, and Bahuaja Sonene Reserves, with more than 3.6 million protected hectares (9 million acres).

Puerto Maldonado, known as the "Capital of Biodiversity", is the main town of the region and the most important city in the Southern Peruvian Rainforest. Overlooking the confluence of the Tambopata and Madre de Dios Rivers, it is 400 meters (1,312 feet) above sea level and 650 km. (404 miles) from Cusco.

RECOMMENDATIONS

Packing Lightweight clothes Long slacks and long-sleeved lightweight shirts (to protect against mosquitoes) Sneakers or hiking boots Sunglasses Cap or hat and raingear Warm clothing is essential between June and August, since occasional "friajes" or cold fronts arrive from southern Patagonia. Bring only necessary clothing and equipment to the lodge due to weight and space limitations on the boat (10 Kg. / 22 lbs per person).

And Don't Forget... Sun block Mosquito repellent Camera or video camera with waterproof case and plenty of high-speed film Binoculars

VACCINATIONS Yellow fever shots and malaria-preventive medication are required for a rainforest environment and recommended by the US Travel Advisor for Peru. Please consult your doctor at least a month before entering the Amazon basin.

WATER Inkaterra Reserva Amazonica has filtered river water that can be used for showers but is not safe to drink. Bottled drinking water is provided to all guests.

INSECTS Although insects in the Tambopata region are not active transmitters of important diseases -as they can be in other zones of the lowland Peruvian jungle-, we recommend visitors use repellent in order to elude insect irritation and, if possible, cover their arms, legs and feet with a good layer of clothing. It is worthwhile to emphasize that all cabanas at RESERVA AMAZÓNICA are equipped with mosquito nettings that prevent insects during the night.

SUN PROTECTION Visitors should bring sunglasses and plenty of sun block to protect themselves against the sun's UV rays.
