Rainforest Expeditions Lodges in Tambopata
Rainforest Expeditions (est. 1989) operates three award winning Amazon lodges: Posada Amazonas, Refugio Amazonas, and Tambopata Research Center. Each Amazon lodge provides access to a unique set of ecotourism experiences in the jungle of southeastern Peru. We offer a true ecotourism experience by working closely with the Ese’ eja Native Community to generate sustainable local development while caring for the environment. Visitors to our lodges are completely surrounded by nature due to our location in the Tambopata-Candamo National Reserve. Rooms constructed from bamboo and adobe give visitors a unique experience in the jungle without sacrificing comfort and quality. All of these factors combined have earned us numerous awards including the Ecotourism Excellence Award and certification by the Rainforest Alliance.
