Puerto Maldonado, Peru: Family Adventure at Posada Amazonas Lodge – Day 3. Today, get ready for an exciting search for the true treasure of the Amazon: wildlife. Travel by boat and walk through the jungle to reach Tres Chimbadas Lake, where you will glide silently in a canoe, searching for the elusive giant river otters. This will be a fascinating encounter for the whole family. Along the way, spot caimans, turtles, and exotic Amazonian birds in their natural habitat. For kids, it is an unforgettable opportunity to see these incredible animals up close.
In the afternoon, enjoy a sunset cruise, a magical moment when the sun paints the river in shades of gold and orange. As the jungle bids farewell with its own light show, the family will share a toast with an Amazonian drink and reflect on the real treasure of the Amazon: the beauty of untouched nature.
After dinner, young explorers will become scientists for a night by joining the Wired Amazon Discovering New Species program. With the help of biologists, they will examine samples in search of insects and other species that could be entirely new to science.
