1 Top Puerto Maldonado Adventure Tour Operator

I had a great time during my 4 night/3 day stay at Refugio. My guide Boris was amazing - so knowledgeable, kind and responsible. Per my request, he scheduled full days of activities so that I could make the most of my time in the jungle. The accommodations were very comfortable and the food was abundant and delicious. The visit to the chakra (farm), the canopy tower, the lake and parrot claylick were all so memorable. I had an amazing time.

Puerto Maldonado, Peru

Rainforest Expeditions

In 1989, Eduardo Nycander, a wildlife photographer and architect passionate about nature and conservation, was invited by the Wildlife Conservation Society to photograph macaws in a stunning and wildlife-rich region of Tambopata, Peru.

Overwhelmed by the wildlife and beauty of the region, Eduardo constructed a research center for studying the wildlife, including a 10,000-hectare forest concession protecting the area.

Later joined by a former researcher of the macaw project, Kurt Holle, Rainforest Expeditions was officially founded in 1992 as a tourism company. This allowed everyone, not just researchers, to experience and appreciate this incredible and wildlife-rich region.

Now operating 3 distinct lodges, Rainforest Expeditions have become one of the leading, and most awarded, tourism companies in the Peruvian Amazon. They are regularly honored at the World Travel Awards, consistently receive high praise from guests, and have been featured in National Geographic, Condé Nast Traveler and Conservation International.

I stayed at TRC for three nights, and had an absolutely amazing experience. My guide, Cesar, was phenomenal. His excitement for bird-watching was contagious, and I was amazed at what he was able to spot in the midst of the jungle.
