PS04 - Jungle Expedition- 3 nights at the Explorer's Inn/1 night camp Day 1. Reception at the airport, transfer to PS's office to prepare for the river trip and boarding of our motorized dugout canoes. On occasions if the weather permits it we will be driven in the bus for 30 minutes to an native community to board the canoe, saving 2 hours of the boat ride. Depending on the time we will have either a box lunch on the boat or lunch at arrival to the E.I. During the trip we may see caymans, turtles and waterfowl, etc. After approx. 3 hours we will arrive at the E.I. lodge where we will be received with a welcome drink. We are now deep inside pristine rainforest and surrounded by its sounds. After a short rest we will have a short hike to a small lagoon and return in time to enjoy a jungle sunset at Sunset Point. After returning to the lodge we will board the canoe for a short night ride to spot caymans with flashlights on the river banks. After returning we will have dinner, at which the Resident Naturalists (RNs) will be available to answer questions or brief us on the Amazon rainforest. Day 2. At daybreak will we go with the canoe 5/6 hours further up the Tambopata river from the EI deep into untouched Amazon rainforest with superb wildlife sighting possibilities.We will pass waterfalls, wonderful sandy beaches with swimming oportunities, interesting basalt rock formations and some gold panning sites. Box lunch on board. Late in the afternoon we arrive to the Macaw Claylick or Colpa de Guacamayos. This is a 200 m red soil cliff where, for still unknown reasons, hundreds of macaws and other parrot species converge every morning and afternoon to feed on the mineral rich soil in an unforgettable spectacle of color and sounds. We will camp at a beach close by and have dinner at camp. Day 3. Early morning Colpa experience. Return to the EI to arrive in time for lunch. Ocasionally, when the level of the river allows it, we might make a short side trip to a saltlick at another small river. Dinner and overnight at the EI. Day 4. After an early breakfast, guided by one of our RNs, we will start a 3 ½ mile hike to Cocococha oxbow lake. On the way we will observe exotic plants and insects, colorful butterflies and birds, monkeys and, with luck, perhaps even some of the large mammals. At the lake canoes will be available for a ride around the lake to watch the wildlife on the shoreline. Return to the EI for a late lunch. Afternoon free for relaxing or independent activities. Dinner. Day 5. Very early wake up and breakfast. Boarding of the canoe to return to Pto. Maldonado watching an unforgettable dawn on the Tambopata river. Transfer to the airport for return flight.
