This “jungle city” is nestled into the middle of some of the thickest jungles in the world. Now is your oppertunity to experience diversity and wildlife of the Peruvian Rainforest” Day 1: Cusco – Puerto Maldonado – Jungle Lodge Upon your arrival to Puerto Maldonado, we will have a guide take you on a quick tour of the center of town and their exotic local markerplace. Depending on your arrival time, we may eat a quick lunch here or we may eat it on the way to the lodge. To get to the lodge we will board a boat, that will then take us downstream to our jungle lodge. Once there we will have a short break to settle in, while drinking a “welcome drink”, before continuing on the next event of the day: Monkey Island. In the afternoon, we will take a scenic, 30 min boat journey to arrive to the famous Monkey Island, where you will be able to appreciate a great diversity of monkeys such as the “Maquisapa”, “Martin”, “Little Lions”, “Frailes”, “Achuñis”, Ronsocos” etc, as well as a rich variety of birds and plants. After a good while of picture taking and “getting to know” the monkeys, we will continue back to the lodge. We will then enjoy a typical jungle dinner in the lodges´dining room.
