Exotic Wildlife

The Tambopata National Reserve vibrates with life. Even when you can’t discern exactly what crafty critters are with you in the jungle, the rustling leaves, jiggling branches and bubbling waters will leave you in no doubt that you have company. With more than 600 bird species, 200 mammals, 100 reptiles and amphibians, and thousands of different types of insects, the biodiversity of this national reserve is simply astonishing.

Take a naturalist-led excursion around the reserve and with a little luck, you’ll see creatures you’ve never seen before, except perhaps behind bars in the zoo. You might spy the rare giant otter floating around the oxbow lakes; monkeys clawing up trunks and along branches; or – if you’re lucky – the notoriously evasive jaguar.

Personalized tours in Peru’s Tambopata National Reserve often include a stop-off at the macaw clay lick, where resplendent flocks of macaws, parrots and parakeets gather en masse at sunrise.

A glimpse, however brief, at one of the exotic animals of the Tambopata National Reserve can be a magical moment and a highlight of your private Peru holiday.  Contact us today and get your free Peru trip quote.  At Kuoda Travel, all trips are custom and personally designed for you by one of our professional travel experts.
