Quick answer One night, a 35-metre tower and the 13:00 flight rule
PVTravel's two-day Tambopata trip costs $280 and holds a 4.6 from 60 reviews. Day one is the transfer, lunch, the 35-metre canopy tower and its zip line; day two is the walk in to Sandoval Lake and the canoe on it. Three meals, one night at the lodge and entrance fees to every site are included. Flights must land before 13:00 and leave after 15:00.
Key takeaways
- Entrance fees to every site are inside the price, unlike IZI Peru's $275 two-day, which adds about $20
- The canopy tower is 35 metres, with a zip line off it, the only two-day tour here with both
- Excess luggage is stored at the operator's town office while you are in the forest
- Arrival before 13:00, departure after 15:00, or the transfers do not work
- The $230 Tambopata Wild trip is cheaper and has a private bathroom, but skips Sandoval Lake
What One Night Actually Buys
Day 1: office, lodge, tower
You are met at the airport or bus station and taken to the operator's office to register and leave anything you do not want in the forest. Then the transfer to the lodge and a welcome drink.
After lunch the group climbs the canopy tower, 35 metres, above the canopy line, and zip-lines back through the forest. That is the afternoon; the evening belongs to the lodge.
Day 2: the lake, then out
An early start for Sandoval Lake: the boat, the walk in through flooded forest, the paddle canoe on the water where the giant otters live, and the walk back out. You are returned to the airport or bus station in time for an afternoon flight.
That is the whole trade of a two-day tour. You get one night walk or one evening at the lodge and one morning on the water, and you miss the second dawn that longer trips give you.
Two Days, Three Days or Four with the Same Operator
The same lodge at three lengths
PVTravel sells this trip at three lengths and the differences are additive rather than structural.
All three run from the same lodge with the same guides and the same inclusions policy, so the comparison below is purely about time and what each extra night adds. Prices were read from the GetYourGuide listings in September 2026.
| Length | Price | Reviews | What the extra nights add |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 days, 1 night | $280 | 4.6 (60) | Canopy tower, zip line, Sandoval Lake |
| 3 days, 2 nights | $370 | 4.5 (395) | A second night excursion and an unhurried lake day |
| 4 days, 3 nights | $387 | 4.8 (11) | A parakeet clay lick and a riverside family visit |
The $17 step that is worth taking
The jump from three days to four costs $17 on these listings and adds a clay lick and a community visit. If your dates allow it, that is the best-value night on this page, with the caveat that the four-day version has only eleven reviews behind its 4.8, against 395 for the three-day.
Questions About the Two-Day Tambopata Trip
Is two days enough for the Amazon?
It buys one night in the forest and one morning on Sandoval Lake, a real experience, not a sampler, but you get one active wildlife window instead of two. If a third day is possible, the 3-day version is the bigger jump in quality.
What time do I need to arrive?
Your flight has to land before 13:00 and your return flight has to leave after 15:00. Outside that window the transfers do not work.
Is the reserve entrance included?
Yes. The listing includes entrance fees to every site visited, which is not true of the two cheaper two-day tours here.
How high is the canopy tower?
35 metres, with a zip line from it. It is on the first afternoon, before dinner.
What can I leave behind?
Excess luggage is stored at the operator's office in Puerto Maldonado while you are at the lodge.

The tour was excellent! We had an amazing experience in the jungle.
Great overall trip, would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to see the Amazon jungle. 5/5 stars. They suggest you leave your bigger bags and just take what you need, which worked well.
