Tambopata Peru Nature Amazon Rainforest.

The concept of releasing captive animals into a safe environment is a popular concept for conservationists worldwide and Taricaya was the first official centre of its kind in Peru. Laws did not exist for such centres in Peru and we pioneered the concept amidst an ongoing battle for rights to sanction the release of confiscated animals. Now we

host many enclosures that allow animals to recover their health before release back into their natural habitat. Thus far we have released 24 species of mammal, 13 species of bird and 4 species of reptile back into the wild.

With qualified staff and associated vets constantly monitoring the progress of our residents the future looks very bright for all our animals and those yet to come into our care. With 39 animals in the centre currently we continue to pioneer work in this field and have plans for captive breeding programs and the reintroduction of groups of certain species that have been hunted to extinction locally.

Along the route, you can encounter species of all kinds, including river otters, alligators, otters, turtles, and even harpy eagles.

Moreover, the Tambopata National Reserve is home to native communities that have inhabited the area since ancient times, such as the Eja and Pukineri ethnic groups. If you wish to learn more about them and experience their way of life, paying them a visit will provide you with valuable insights into their worldview.

In this community, you’ll need to pass through a checkpoint with a fee of 60 soles, marking the entrance to the reserve. You will then be transported by boat to the areas that can be visited on a tour lasting approximately an hour and a half. The best time to visit Tambopata is during the dry season, between May and November, when the weather ranges from 50 to 95 °F.
