WHY TAMBOPATA JUNGLE?
Before letting you know why Rainforest Expeditions, we want to tell you who we are and how we do it.
How We Do It?
- You visit the Amazon rainforest with us, probably because you want to experience millions of acres of ancient trees with monkeys and macaws in them.
- We facilitate your experience by providing creature comforts (clean rooms, good food), an enriching context (knowledgeable guides, local connections), and access to a vast tropical rainforest wilderness.
- We share the income from your visit with our neighbors: native communities and farmers who have been around here a lot longer than us, many of whom work at the lodges and have become guardians of this natural wonder.
- Our partners and neighbors connect your visit to their economy. They also understand your visit depends on a healthy wilderness. They commit to its health and sustainability
Who We Are?
Rainforest Expeditions is a Peruvian Ecotourism company. Since 1989 our guests and lodges, have added value to standing tropical rainforest, transforming it into a competitive alternative to unsustainable economic uses, engaging local communities in its protection and care.
