Day 01: Monkey Island (Isla de los Monos)

Arrival to the city of Puerto Maldonado. Up on arrival we will transfer you to the river dock where we board our boat and go for an unforgettable journey down the Madre de Dios River and towards our lodge. Along the way we can observe caimans, turtles (charapas) and other fauna, as well as herons, king fisher and other varieties of bird species. Upon arrival at the Lodge we will enjoy an exquisite –and typical- welcome drink and you will be settled in our comfortable bungalows. Lunch ensues shortly. Afterwards, in the company of our specialized guide, we visit the Monkey Island ("Isla de los Monos"). Located in the middle of the Madre de Dios river, the Monkey Island hosts an ample variety of species of monkeys: from the noisy ones such as the Maquisapa (Spider Monkey), the happy Achuñi (Nasua nasua d.), the very impressive Fraile (Squirrel Monkey) to the very little and funny Leoncito, "little lions" (Tití –Cebuella pygmaea). The trip to the island affords very beautiful sightseeing of the local landscape as well as the flora and fauna that they host. B, L, D.
