Founded back in 1991, the Libertador
Tambopata Lodge is one of the most
established eco-tourism lodges on the
banks of the Tambopata River. There are
now a total of nine rainforest lodges in
the Puerto Maldonado area, reinforcing
the status of the region as one of the
major rainforest eco-tourism
destinations in South America.
With a capacity of 59 it is also one of
the smallest lodges, which is how we
intend to keep it. Smaller groups, we
believe, contribute to a more fulfilling
visit and reduce the impact on the many
species of fauna that abound in the
surrounding forest.
The lodge employs around twenty Peruvian
staff, the majority of whom are resident
in Puerto Maldonado. In addition, there
are a number of naturalist Reiseführer, both
from Peru and abroad, who are at your
service throughout your stay. As well as
guiding and introducing visitors to the
many marvels of the forest, a number are
undertaking research projects, thereby
contributing to a greater ecological
understanding of the area.
