Rooted in the Amazon.Guided by Nature.
Tambopata Wild is a locally based Tambopata tour operator in Puerto Maldonado, Peru. Our team of naturalist guides and river captains creates thoughtfully planned Amazon experiences shaped by firsthand knowledge of the rainforest, its wildlife and its people.
We organize journeys through the Tambopata region, from canoe excursions on Lake Sandoval to rainforest trails, river exploration and early-morning visits to macaw clay licks.
Our approach combines local knowledge with practical coordination. We help travelers arrange transportation, accommodation and guided activities while leaving time to appreciate the natural rhythms of the forest.
For us, exploring the Amazon is about more than visiting famous places. It is about observing, listening and discovering the landscapes and unexpected moments that make Tambopata distinctive.
Local Roots.Years in the Rainforest.
Our story begins in Puerto Maldonado, where the rivers and forests of Madre de Dios have always been part of everyday life.
The guiding experience behind Tambopata Wild dates back to 2003, followed by independent tour operations from 2015. Over the years, that experience has developed into a locally managed tourism business focused on natural history, wildlife observation and personal service.
Working in Tambopata means understanding that every day is different. River levels change, trails respond to the seasons and wildlife follows its own patterns. This firsthand knowledge helps us plan realistic itineraries while leaving room for discovery.
Today, we continue to share the Amazon through the perspective of people who live and work in the region.

Respect for the Forest Shapes Every Journey.
We believe responsible Amazon tourism begins with respect for wildlife in its natural habitat, for the people who live in the region and for the changing conditions of the rainforest.
Our guides encourage patient observation, environmental awareness and realistic expectations. Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed, and the experience is about appreciating the forest as a living ecosystem.
