You will make a stop at the famous Santo del Fraile, a rock formation that offers a spectacular view of the Lima coast.

In ancient times, Pachacamac was considered an accurate oracle capable of predicting the future and unleashing the fury of the earth (remember that Lima is a city prone to strong earthquakes), which is why it received hundreds of pilgrims who came from all over in search of answers to their troubles and to pay their respects.

Refugio Amazonas
The Refugio Amazonas Lodge is a simple yet comfortable lodge located on a tributary of the Amazon River, two and a half hours away from Puerto Maldonado.The 200 hectare private reserve bordering the Tambopata National Reserve is ideal for soft adventurers and families. The 32 rooms are equipped with private bathroom and common areas for eating and socializing. The bungalows and rooms at Refugio Amazonas are built using logs and palm leaves, staying true to the local architecture.
Macaw Clay Licks, Lake Condenado & Night Walk
On most clear mornings of the year, dozens of large macaws and hundreds of parrots congregate on a large riverbank nearby in a raucous and colorful spectacle that inspired a National Geographic cover story: the Macaw Clay Licks. Discretely located fifty meters from the cliff, you and fellow guests will observe Green-winged, Scarlet, and Blue-and-gold Macaws and several species of smaller parrots as they arrive to enjoy their all-natural daily serving of clay. Outings are at dawn when the lick is most active, so expect to wake early for this unforgettable experience. Afterward, navigate around Lake Condenado looking for wildlife such as the hoatzin or Shansho, which is said to be a pre-historic bird. Alligators, Martin fishermen and many other species are commonly spotted, and if you are lucky, you will be able to observe the family of otters that live here (however, they are very shy and notoriously difficult to see). As the day shifts to dawn, you will be invited to set out on a night walk through the jungle when many mammals, amphibians, reptiles and arachnids are active but difficult to see; at least without the help of an expert guide.

Brazilian Nuts & Medicinal Plants of the Amazon
Brazil nuts are large and selenium-dense, and native to the Amazon rainforest. Curiously, although called a nut, they aren't. Instead, what you'll find are technically seeds inside of a large, coconut-like fruit. Today you will learn much more as you visit a Brazil Nut camp very close to the property. Here you'll find immense chestnut trees and meet the local people who harvest them once a year during the rainy season. The chestnut is one of the main sources of income for the local population of Puerto Maldonado, and it serves as one of the most sustainable economic activities in the region. And while Brazil nuts are exotic and interesting to learn, nature abounds with incredible plants that have impressive medicinal properties. With that in mind, later today you'll set out on a medicinal plants trail to discover the great variety of plants and trees that the local population has used for years to heal their body and soul. Perhaps you have heard of some of them such as Sacha-Ajos, Una De Gato, Sacha, Charcot, Para-Para, and Ayahuasca, to name just a few. In the evening, researchers from the Wired Amazon Project will present a fascinating Night Lecture about the opportunities and challenges of this project in the Tambopata National Reserve.
