Rainforest Adventure Road Trip Macaw’s Clay Lick 2 Days

Day 1: Transfer to Wasaí Tambopata Lodge

A staff member will wait for you at the airport to transfer you to Wasai Puerto Maldonado Ecolodge, where you will be welcomed with a delicious tropical juice. After a brief explanation of the tour and accommodating the luggage, we will head for the Inter Oceanic Highway, where we will see small villages and farms with livestock of tropical breeds.
Afterwards, we will take a shortcut in direction to Venado Station. The shortcut is a narrow dirt road that initially runs through plantations of local species, as we get away from the highway and into the deep jungle; human presence gradually reduces until we reach the Venado Station.

There we will have lunch. Afterwards, we will start our trekking of 4 kms through primary forest until we reach Wasai Tambopata Lodge. Reception and accommodation in the lodge. After a
short rest we will have a night tour through the forest to observe and hear the insects, bats, frogs, and maybe have an occasional encounter with some nocturnal mammal. Dinner. The various sounds of the jungle will accompany you through your first night in the Amazon.

wait for the macaws to arrive.
Halfway through the morning we will return to our Wasai Alto Tambopata Lodge, located at the entrance of the National Park, after 1 hour from the Macaw Clay Lick. A fantastic voyage
