NEED TO KNOW

  • The Inkaterra Reserva Amazonica Lodge is located in a private ecological reserve and research centre of 10,000 hectares

THE HOTEL
Inspired by native Amazon design, Reserva Amazonica offers 30 thatched roof cabañas - all combining natural materials with contemporary amenities and built in the native Machiguenga and Ese-Eja style.

Four cabaña options are available - each individually decorated in an elegant, rustic style to create the most luxurious lodges in the Amazon.  The Reserva is the place to go for an authentic, safe and comfortable stay in the biodiversity capital of Peru, where a single giant tree is home to more insect species than in the whole of the UK

EXAMPLE ITINERARY

Morning flight to Puerto Maldonado and transfer to the river. A motorboat then takes you one hour down the Madre de Dios River to the Inkaterra Reserva Amazonica Lodge. Afternoon group guided walk along the Lodge's extensive system of jungle trails, offering an excellent introduction to the environment of the forest including trees like the kapok and the giant strangler fig and excellent opportunities to watch birds and observe the insect life.
