Amazon Lodge Adventure Tour .
Amazon Lodge Adventure Tour is located in the tropical rainforest of the Manu Biosphere Reserve, near the village of Atalaya. Our property encompasses 350 hectares of primary forest, in the transition zone between the Andean foothills and the tropical lowland rainforest, right on the banks of the Alto Madre de Dios River.
The altitude range of the property is between 500 m to 1050 m, with different types of habitats. This variation in altitude explains the high diversity of wildlife (see bird list). It is a Peruvian paradise for birdwatchers, scientists, nature lovers, and photographers.
Amazonia Sandoval Lake Lodge is a sustainable lodge with a solar-powered hot water system and its own hydroelectricity.
You can enjoy a radiation-free and natural environment, away from civilization.
You can reach Amazonia Lodge in one day by car/minibus from Cusco, traveling via the famous Manu road, plus a 20-minute boat ride from Atalaya.
We recommend a minimum of 4 days to explore the area, including the cloud forest.
Since July 2016, Amazonia Lodge has been part of Amazon Trails Peru, a small company that has been operating quality Manu tours since the year 2000, from natural history to birdwatching and other special interest tours, as well as tours for families.
Amazonia is one of the best places for birdwatching in Peru, with more than 630 bird species recorded so far. Our intention is to preserve this pristine and biodiverse ecosystem. Students and scientists are also welcome.
The Yábar family, from Cusco, established the lodge in 1980, which used to be a tea plantation in the 1970s. The book ‘Birds of South America’ by Robert S. Ridgely refers to the lodge as Hacienda Amazonia. The property has more than 75% primary forest, mainly in the foothills. The rest is mature secondary forest with reforestation.
