    It was a good tour, but I wish we had done everything on the itinerary. Lots of things in the itinerary did not happen because of the rain.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Dear Yarline, Thank you very much for your kind words and for choosing to explore Tambopata with us. We’re delighted to hear you had a good and unique experience in the rainforest. At the same time, we truly regret that weather conditions prevented us from completing some activities as originally planned. In the Amazon, rain can occasionally require adjustments to ensure the safety and well-being of our guests. We sincerely appreciate your understanding and your valuable feedback. It would be a pleasure to welcome you again in the future for an even more complete experience. Warm regards, Paradise Tambopata Ecolodge

    Amazing experience

    EMMANOUIL_N, Jan 2026
    Great tour with plenty of zip line, canopy walk and walks to the jungle. Our tour guide Willy was amazing and funny and managed to change the activities according to the weather changes!

    Response from Host, Jan 2026

    Thank you very much for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear that you had such an amazing experience in the Tambopata National Reserve and that you enjoyed the zip line, canopy walk, and jungle excursions. We’re especially happy to know that Willy made your trip even more memorable with his enthusiasm, sense of humor, and flexibility in adapting activities to the weather conditions — we’ll be sure to share your kind words with him. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back to the Amazon in the future! Warm regards, Paradise Tambopata Eco Lodge Team

    Nice glimpse to the rainforest

    IOANNIS_R, Jan 2026
    If you haven't see the amazon rainforest before this is a nice glimpse. Otherwise you don't see many animals as the lodge is close to the city and the trips to the area are very touristic. If my group haven't insisted to the guide to do the trips we payed maybe we have done the half.

    Response from Host, Jan 2026

    Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are pleased to know that you were able to enjoy an introduction to the Amazon rainforest. Wildlife sightings in the Amazon are naturally unpredictable, as animals live freely in their natural environment, and sightings can never be guaranteed. Our lodge is located near Puerto Maldonado to provide accessibility and comfort for our guests, which means some areas are more frequently visited. Nevertheless, all excursions included in the program are scheduled to be carried out, and our guides are instructed to ensure that guests fully enjoy the activities offered. We regret if at any moment this was not clearly communicated and truly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve both our service and guest experience. Thank you for visiting Paradise Amazon Lodge, and we hope to welcome you again in the future. Warm regards, Paradise Amazon Lodge Team

    Response from Host, Jan 2026

    Good morning, Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We are delighted to know that you enjoyed the experience and that the organization met your expectations. Our team works very hard to provide a caring and memorable stay, so it means a lot to hear that you felt well looked after during your time with us. It was truly a pleasure to welcome you to Paradise Tambopata EcoLodge, and we would be honored to host you again for another Amazon adventure in the future.

    Worth every penny

    We had three amazing days, much thanks to our fantastic guide Boris. He really knew how to spot the animals, shared soo much interesting information about everything we saw, on top of that he was a great photogafer, funny and patient. The lodge was great too and the food was lovely. The rooms are basic without windows only mosquitonet, but that is the experience you want, I loved falling asleep to the sound of nature. The only downside was that the bathroom and particularly the shower had not been cleaned for quite some time, so we did not use the shower. Bring a powerbank as electricity is limited to a few hours a day. The program was not exactly as stated but we did not mind. We had more freetime than experted but we enjoyed the rest after the early mornings and the opportunity to cool down by the pool.

    Response from Host, Nov 2025

    Hello, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are truly happy to hear that you had an amazing three days and that Boris made your visit so special. He will be very glad to know you appreciated his knowledge, patience, and photography skills. We’re also delighted that you enjoyed the lodge, the food, and the natural atmosphere of the rooms. Falling asleep to the sounds of the jungle is indeed a unique experience. At the same time, we sincerely apologize for the issue you mentioned regarding the bathroom and shower cleanliness. This is not up to our standards, and we have already informed our housekeeping team to ensure this is addressed immediately. Thank you for bringing it to our attention. Thank you as well for highlighting the limited electricity hours and the power bank tip — this will be helpful for future guests. We appreciate your understanding regarding the slight changes in the program, and we’re glad the extra free time allowed you to relax and enjoy the pool. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back again in the future for an even better experience. Warm regards, Chantal

    Good overall

    Hayfa_A, Apr 2025
    Wonderful experience, only issue was lack of electricity which we found very difficult and were not aware

    Response from Host, Oct 2025

    Dear Hayfa, Thank you very much for sharing your feedback and for choosing to stay with us. We’re so happy to hear you had a wonderful experience overall! We’re sorry, however, that the limited electricity hours came as a surprise and caused some inconvenience. As part of our sustainability efforts, our lodge operates on panel solar that runs only during certain hours of the day — but we’ll make sure to communicate this more clearly before arrival so future guests can be better prepared. We truly appreciate your understanding and your kind words, and we hope to welcome you back one day for another Amazon adventure! Warm regards, Chantal Paradise Amazon Lodge
