About this trip

Immerse yourself in a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that goes beyond the ordinary. Delve into the heart of nature and embark on a transformative journey at a wildlife rescue center, where every moment is an opportunity to connect with the vibrant biodiversity of the Peruvian Amazon Jungle.


Whether you choose to embark on this adventure with family, as a couple, with friends, or as a solo explorer, the experience promises to be both enriching and rewarding. Engage with dedicated veterinarians, passionate scientists, and committed volunteers who work tirelessly to protect and rehabilitate the region's diverse wildlife.


One of the highlights of your adventure awaits at 140 feet (42 meters) above the ground, where you can witness a breathtaking sunset from the top of a towering tree. This unique vantage point offers an unparalleled perspective of the surrounding natural beauty, creating memories that will last a lifetime.


Navigate the pristine waters of Lake Sandoval in the Tambopata National Reserve, an area renowned for its stunning landscapes and rich biodiversity. Immerse yourself in the sounds of the jungle, encounter exotic wildlife, and contribute directly to the conservation efforts that sustain these precious ecosystems.


Your participation in this adventure is more than just a personal journey – it's a commitment to the preservation of the environment. By joining this experience, you actively contribute to forest conservation programs and the reintroduction of wildlife in both the Taricaya Reserve and the Tambopata National Reserve.


Not only does your involvement support these critical conservation initiatives, but it also plays a vital role in sustaining ongoing scientific projects. Your economic contribution aids in the maintenance of animals undergoing recovery and facilitates their eventual release back into the wild, fostering a harmonious coexistence between humans and the natural world.


As the number of participants is limited, you can relish the exclusivity of this experience, ensuring an intimate and immersive connection with nature in a protected environment. Seize this opportunity to make a meaningful impact, forge unforgettable memories, and leave a positive footprint on the delicate ecosystems of the Peruvian Amazon.
