Founded back in 1991, the Libertador Tambopata Lodge is one of the most established eco-tourism lodges on the banks of the Tambopata River. There are now a total of nine rainforest lodges in the Puerto Maldonado area, reinforcing the status of the region as one of the major rainforest eco-tourism destinations in South America. With a capacity of 59 it is also one of the smallest lodges, which is how they intend to keep it. Smaller groups, they believe, contribute to a more fulfilling visit and reduce the impact on the many species of fauna that abound in the surrounding forest.
Situated on the banks of the Tambopata River in the heart of the Tambopata National Reserve, the remoteness and tranquility of their lodge will make your stay an agreeable one. The lodge employs around twenty Peruvian staff, the majority of whom are resident in Puerto Maldonado. In addition, there are a number of naturalist guides, both from Peru and abroad, who are available. As well as guiding and introducing visitors to the many marvels of the forest, a number are undertaking research projects, thereby contributing to a greater ecological understanding of the area.
The lodge has something to offer everybody, from those who just want to escape from the noise of the city, to naturalists and professional photographers. The experienced nature guides are always willing to help guests understand and better appreciate this unique area. Each bed is protected by a mosquito net and the cabins all have a private bathroom with running water.
