Experiences
Experiences in the Forest of Infierno
For four days, you will navigate the Tambopata River accompanied by people who grew up listening to the language of the forest. You will walk among giant trees, explore hidden trails, and discover how the jungle transforms completely after nightfall. Here, the Amazon is not observed from a distance — it is experienced from within. Every journey reveals something different: the sound of monkeys at dawn, the stillness of the river, ancestral knowledge of medicinal plants, and the constant feeling of entering a territory that still remains authentic.
Extreme nature
Explore the wonders of the Amazon rainforest alongside Ese Eja guides. Navigate the Tambopata River, discover Pichicoya Creek, and explore Tres Chimbadas Lake in search of giant river otters, caimans, and tropical birds. From natural clay licks to nighttime walks and primary rainforest trails, enjoy four days of exploration and unforgettable wildlife encounters.
Ese Eja Spiritual Retreat
Amid the silence of the Amazon, far from everyday noise, a journey inward begins. For six days, you will participate in traditional ceremonies guided by an Ese Eja shaman, learning about medicinal plants, ancestral practices, and forms of spiritual connection deeply linked to nature. More than a retreat, this is a space for wellbeing — to listen to the body, calm the mind, and restore a more conscious relationship with oneself and the surrounding world.
Ese Eja Cultural Experience
Share everyday life with the Ese Eja Community of Infierno and discover knowledge that cannot be found in books or conventional tourism circuits. Learn ancestral hunting techniques, participate in local culinary experiences, and walk through the forest alongside people who have lived in balance with this territory for generations. Through the oral transmission of stories and memory, a culture still deeply connected to its land gradually reveals itself. An intimate, human, and profoundly authentic experience.
Nature in Infierno
Discover Tambopata's extraordinary biodiversity through its rivers, lakes, and rainforests. Watch macaws at natural clay licks, explore Tres Chimbadas Lake in search of giant river otters, and experience traditional piranha fishing. Guided by local Ese Eja experts, uncover the secrets of the Amazon through forest walks, river excursions, and nighttime wildlife exploration.
Wild Ese Eja Experience
Two days of adventure to discover the rainforest through the eyes of its people. Explore Tres Chimbadas Lake, search for caimans after dark, and hike through primary rainforest alongside Ese Eja guides. Learn traditional fishing, navigation, and survival skills while discovering the wildlife and ancestral knowledge that connect this community to its land.
Cultural and natural experiences designed for travelers seeking something deeper than a simple tourist journey.
About us
Tambopata Infierno was born as a community-based tourism initiative in the heart of the Tambopata National Reserve.
We represent a way of protecting something increasingly rare today: an authentic relationship between people, nature, and time.
In an era shaped by speed, disconnection, and the constant consumption of superficial experiences, this project proposes something different:
- To offer authentic experiences that allow travelers to discover the Amazon through a more human, conscious, and respectful relationship.
- Every experience seeks to create genuine connection between visitors, nature, and community, while also promoting environmental conservation, cultural preservation, and sustainable local development.
- But it also seeks to provoke something more intimate: That visitors return home seeing the world differently.
ESE EJA INFIERNO
Native Community
The Ese Eja call themselves “the true people.”
For generations, they have inhabited the Amazon territory while developing a deeply integrated relationship with the forest, the river, and the natural cycles surrounding them.
Today, while much of the world moves toward increasingly accelerated and isolated ways of living, their culture preserves knowledge and sensitivities that invite reflection on other possible ways of existing.
Sharing part of this knowledge with conscious travelers also becomes a way of preserving culture, identity, and territory.
DIFFERENTIAL VALUE
Genuine human connection
Beyond the landscape, this experience allows travelers to coexist with real people, listen to life stories, and understand a relationship with the forest profoundly different from the Western worldview.
Ancestral knowledge, survival & spirituality
Knowledge passed down orally through generations survives here as a living part of Ese Eja culture.
Personal transformation
Many visitors arrive seeking adventure. They leave carrying silence, reflection, and a renewed sensitivity toward nature and time.
Responsible & sustainable tourism
Each visit directly contributes to the cultural strengthening and well-being of the Ese Eja Native Community of Infierno, which receives 5% of the profits generated, as well as to the conservation of one of the most important ecosystems on the planet.
