Tronco Tambopata Adventure

We were picked up from our arrival as soon as we got there which was really convenient since we had travelled all night and were pretty tired. The food was reaaallly yummy. We had two vegans in our group who they were able to cater for and who said their food was also really great. The guides we had were really friendly and there was a good balance of activities and rest time. The groups were also quite small so it felt quite private and at times we were the only ones. We were able to see 3 different species of monkeys, a sloth, turtles, otters, toucans, among other animals. There was also a monkey that lives at the resort who loves to play. The rooms were nice, clean and they had hot water and electricity. The rooms were also serviced during the day while we were out. We really enjoyed our two-night stay and would’ve definitely loved to do the 4 day stay as well.

Our stay at Tronco Lodge was truly unique and unforgettable. We spent five days and four nights enjoying every moment. The food was amazing—always plentiful and delicious, with a great variety of drinks. One of the best parts was the friendly monkey and parrot living at the lodge. They brought so much fun and character to the place. Our room was cozy, very clean, and a perfect place to relax after each day’s adventure. Every excursion gave us the chance to see incredible wildlife and explore the jungle in a way that felt truly special. If you're looking for a unique jungle experience, Tronco Lodge is the perfect choice.

My experience with this tour was mixed due to poor organization and communication. The groups, with varying lengths of stay, were all managed by one guide, so there was no clear itinerary or schedule—everything was decided by the guide on the fly. On my last day, I was expecting to leave by 4pm as per my itinerary. Initially, the guide planned for a morning trip to the Tambopata River, but later decided to move it to the afternoon so he could avoid making two trips for different groups. This change meant I wouldn't return until 6pm, despite my planned 4pm departure, and no alternate activity was offered to replace the morning tour. While this issue was eventually resolved, I felt that my time was not respected, and the situation was poorly handled. The guide implied I wouldn’t have anything to do if I checked into my next hotel earlier, which wasn’t for him to decide. Communication was also an issue. The guide requested an additional $20 for a night walk, which should have been complimentary for me. Though this was sorted out, it added to the disorganization. Lastly, when we were at Tambopata Reserve, the guide made an inappropriate comment, telling me I was beautiful and that he loved me, which was uncomfortable and out of place, especially since we were alone on the lake. While I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt, considering English wasn’t his first language, the entire situation was unsettling.

Best 3 day trip ever!! The guides (Wallie, Sebastian, Andrea and Ramao), were brilliant. They had so much knowledgeable and passionate, sharing our excitement for finding different plants and animals. Each day was scheduled very well to give us a different experience and lots of opportunities to see different wildlife. The accommodation was beautiful, calm and very clean.The hosts were kind and the food they made was fantastic. I couldn't recommend this place enough! I will be telling everyone to visit!

We spent 4 days and 3 nights at Tronco Tambopata with our group of 6 adults and 6 children. The property was amazing. It is well laid out and well-maintained. The cabins were clean and comfortable. The food was excellent and varied, and the beer was cold. Our compliments to the chefs and managerial staff! The excursions were great. We saw so much flora and fauna in Lago Sandoval. The sunsets and sunrises off the boat were stunning. The resident monkey Macaco and the parrot Pepe kept the kids entertained. Our guide Bryan was knowledgeable, resourceful, patient, kind, and all around awesome!
