Arrival in Puerto Maldonado and Journey to Sachavacayoc Farm

Your Amazon adventure begins with a seamless arrival in Puerto Maldonado. Whether flying into the airport or arriving by bus, our experienced guide will meet you and ensure a smooth transfer.

  • Welcome and Orientation: Our professional guides, with in-depth knowledge of the Amazon rainforest and its conservation, will escort you to our central office in Puerto Maldonado. Here, you’ll repack essentials into a provided carry-on bag—keeping things light for easier boat travel—while your main luggage stays securely stored.

  • Onboard Experience: Savor a delicious box lunch on the boat, with vegetarian, vegan, or custom options available upon request. Stay hydrated with refillable water stations.
  • Arrival at Sachavacayoc Farm: Settle into our eco-friendly lodge amidst the jungle sounds. After a short rest, join an introductory forest walk to immerse yourself in the ecosystem. As night falls, embark on a guided night hike to search for nocturnal creatures like tarantulas, owls, and insects.
  • Evening: Relax with a hearty dinner at the lodge, featuring fresh, local ingredients.

This day sets the tone for your sustainable Amazon exploration, emphasizing minimal environmental impact.

Rise early for one of the Amazon’s most spectacular natural phenomena—the world’s largest macaw clay lick.

  • Early Morning Departure: At 4 a.m., head up the Tambopata River for about 2 hours to El Chuncho Clay Lick. Arrive before the birds for the best views. Watch hundreds of macaws, parrots, and parakeets gather to consume mineral-rich clay, a vital part of their diet.
  • Breakfast and Wildlife Spotting: Enjoy a buffet breakfast while observing the colorful spectacle. En route, keep an eye out for capybaras, caimans, jaguars, or tapirs—the Amazon’s elusive giants.
  • Return and Rest: Head back to the lodge for lunch and downtime to recharge.
  • Afternoon Adventure: Venture to pristine Lago Condenado, a 1-hour hike from the lodge. Paddle a canoe across the lake, spotting monkeys, caimans, hoatzins, and possibly anacondas. This serene spot offers a chance to connect with the jungle’s tranquility.
  • Night Walk: After dinner, opt for another guided night stroll to experience the Amazon’s symphony of sounds and sights under the stars.

Our tours highlight biodiversity hotspots like El Chuncho, supporting local conservation through eco-tourism.

Dive deeper into the Tambopata Reserve with a full day focused on one of its hidden gems.

  • Breakfast and Hike: Start with a nourishing breakfast, then embark on a leisurely 2-hour walk to Sachavacayoc Lake, nestled in the reserve’s core. Along the trail, observe the intricate web of Amazon life.
  • Lake Activities: Upon arrival, board a rowboat to explore the lake’s edges. Look for spider monkeys swinging through trees, giant otters fishing, anacondas basking, and tapirs grazing. This is a prime spot for rare wildlife encounters.
  • Full-Day Exploration: Enjoy a provided box lunch lakeside, allowing ample time to soak in the surroundings. For those preferring relaxation, return to the lodge earlier for lunch and leisure at our farm’s amenities, like hammocks or birdwatching platforms.
  • Evening River Cruise: As dusk approaches, cruise the river to spot nocturnal caimans with their glowing eyes.
  • Dinner: Wind down with dinner at the lodge, reflecting on the day’s discoveries.

Sachavacayoc Lake offers a unique, off-the-beaten-path experience, ideal for photographers and wildlife lovers seeking authentic Amazon encounters.

Conclude your journey with final glimpses of the Amazon before heading back.

  • Breakfast and Departure: Fuel up with breakfast at Sachavacayoc Lodge, then board the boat for a 2-hour return down the Tambopata River. Use this time to spot any last-minute wildlife along the banks.
  • Arrival in Puerto Maldonado: Back at our office, retrieve your luggage and receive assistance for your onward travel—whether to the airport, bus station, or a local hotel.

We had the best time with Mach Picchu Peru Travel company, not only in the Tambopata Amazon rainforest, but our one day Machu Picchu tour! We struggled to find reviews with them on the rainforest portion so we weren’t sure what to expect and it was so amazing!!!Our guide, Javier was super knowledgeable, easy-going and all around wonderful. Everything was taken care of from transportation to and from the airport, to the beautiful accommodations, to the best food we’ve had in Peru. We even asked them for some of their recipes on this four day excursion because it was so well flavored. They accommodated vegetarian and dairy free! We saw a lot of animals thanks to our guide and I would recommend the four day tour because otherwise if you only do three days you just have one day to potentially see animals! We could not recommend using this 100% Peruvian travel company more!! We would love to come back and use them again!They also were very communicative via WhatsApp and laid out all the details for both the Amazon rainforest tour and the one day Machu Picchu tour.

We booked the private Machu Picchu experience for two, including a private car transfer from Cusco to the train station, the Vistadome train, and a private guided tour of the site. It is certainly a premium-priced experience, but for such a once-in-a-lifetime destination, I would absolutely do it again.

Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. Communication with Tania was excellent throughout the booking process. She was always responsive and helpful, and even came to our hotel the day before to hand over all our tickets, explain the itinerary in detail, and answer all our questions. That personal touch was greatly appreciated.

When we arrived at the train station, our guide, Willy, warmly welcomed us and stayed with us throughout the entire visit. He was incredibly friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights into the history, culture, and significance of Machu Picchu. His English was excellent, making every explanation easy to understand. He also knew all the best photo spots and helped us capture some unforgettable memories. To top it off, he recommended a very good restaurant (not included in the price) for after our visit, which was the perfect end to the visit while waiting for the return transfer.

Be prepared for a long day from Cusco—our day started at 5:00 a.m. and we returned around 8:30 p.m. Most of the time is spent on transportation, transfers, and waiting (each way is around 4 hours: car+train+bus), while the visit to Machu Picchu itself lasts around 2.5 hours (we had booked Circuit 1, which offers the best views although you are not able to enter the village itself (this would be circuit 2). However, every minute is absolutely worth it.

A big thank you to Tania and especially to Willy for making this unforgettable experience so smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommended!

We travel 15 day around Peru 🇵🇪. It was and excellent but very exhausted experience. Every place with its own magic, mystery and culture.
As always, when you get out of your country, you become to be very vulnerable and a good traveler agent is KEY. In our case Tania our agent was wonderful and make us fell secure at all times.
All places we visited were rich in culture, full of very sweet and kind people.
Food was good but, I did not had the opportunity to to have any extraordinary food.
Some trips like the visit to Arekipa were made in a flash, rushing at all times.
But in essence it was a great trip‼️
Again dear Tania, THANK YOU VERY MUCH 💕💗

Machu Picchu Peru travel arranged all of my solo travel to Peru, covering Cusco region (History/Culture, Humantay lake, Machu Picchu, Rainbow mountain) as well as Paracas, Huacachina & Nazca. The entire arrangement was seamless and last minute adjustments were accommodated as well. I recommend them.

Visiting Machu Picchu was one of the highlights of our trip to Peru, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Everything was very well organized, from the pickup and transportation to the guided tour itself.

Our guide was knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about the history and culture of the Incas. We learned so much while enjoying the breathtaking beauty of this extraordinary place.

A truly memorable day and an experience I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Peru. Thank you Tania for your help 💫🦋🌸

I can’t recommend this agency highly enough! They made our vacation in Peru an unforgettable experience. From the very beginning, they stood out for their attentiveness, punctuality, excellent organization, and incredible coordination throughout the entire trip.

I would especially like to mention our guide, Will, in Cusco. His professionalism, knowledge, and passion for history made every visit even more fascinating. We were amazed by all the interesting facts he shared about Inca culture, traditions, and the different archaeological sites. Having a guide like him made our experience much more enriching and allowed us to appreciate each place in a completely different way.

I would also like to give a special thank you to Tania, Celestino, Jesus, Yusof, and Don Neri in Lima for their kindness, attention, and for making us feel so well taken care of throughout our trip.

We traveled from Costa Rica, and we are taking home wonderful memories of Peru. Thank you to the entire team for making sure everything was so well organized and for treating us with such warmth and care.

Without a doubt, an excellent agency for exploring Peru. We highly recommend them!

Warm regards,
Yuliana, from Costa Rica 🇨🇷❤️🇵🇪

​I dreamed of going to Rainbow Mountain from the moment I first saw photos of it. As someone who usually prefers planning every detail of my own trips, realizing how overwhelming and way more costly this journey would be on my own was tough. I dug deep into social media to find the right agency, sent a WhatsApp message late one night to Machu Picchu Tours, and that’s when my friendship with Tania began.

​I asked endless questions, and Tania gave us absolute white-glove treatment. From the second we landed in Cusco until the moment we departed, not a single detail was missed or overlooked. Our guides were incredible—deeply knowledgeable, immensely proud of their Incan heritage, and so passionate about sharing it that their energy was palpable.

​Our Sacred Valley tour served as the perfect bridge, giving us the history and context we needed to truly appreciate Machu Picchu. Though Rainbow Mountain was my original focus, our excursion to Machu Picchu was world-class—with a special shoutout to Leo, whose guidance made it unforgettable. Ending our journey with the climb to Humantay Lake was both a physical challenge and a priceless gift. Pushing ourselves to reach the summit was the most rewarding way we could have ever closed out our time in Cusco.

​What blew me away even more was how Tania handled the unexpected. When bad weather caused our flight to Lima to be canceled, she stepped in like a total pro. Within a matter of moments, she rearranged our flights, secured us a hotel, and organized our transportation for an unexpected extra night stay. She turned what could have been an overwhelming situation into a stress-free extra day of memories by taking care of everything seamlessly.

​Machu Picchu Tours made my Cusco experience far more than I could have ever planned, dreamed of, or imagined. I actually left Cusco shedding tears because my heart simply wasn't ready to end such an incredible journey.
​If traveling to Peru or South America is on your bucket list, work with the team at Machu Picchu Tours. They won't just make a dream come true—they will give you an experience you will talk about for the rest of your life.

We had an amazing experience exploring Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley with this agency, largely thanks to the owner, Tania, who is incredibly sweet, professional, and always highly responsive. For Machu Picchu, she seamlessly arranged our round-trip train tickets and paired us with an excellent private tour guide. Even when we encountered a few minor difficulties during the tour, Tania was immediately available and helped us resolve everything quickly.
