The rainforest of the amazon jungle has the largest number of species
of fauna in the world. Peru has created reserves and national parks to protect
these areas and provide places for scientists to study the plants and animals
of the rainforest and persons interested in travel in the jungle to visit.
Among the reserves set aside for these purposes is the Pacaya-Samiria Nature
Reserve. The Pacaya-Samiria Reserve is located in the jungles of northern
Peru in the Department of Loreto. The Reserve is the largest in Peru and
lies between the Marañon and Ucayali rivers. The Pacaya-Samiria Reserve
can be reached from Tarapoto by a one hour flight in 8 passenger plane contracted
specifically for our guests or for small groups we will hire a motorboat
to travel from the city of Yurimaguas on the Huallaga river.
On arrival at the entrance to the Pacaya-Samiria Reserve you will be
accompanied by one or more local guides who have lived in the rainforest
jungle all their lives and paddle the dugout native canoes, giving you the
opportunity to observe the incredible quantity of wildlife. The guides know
the Pacaya-Samiria reserve like the palm of their hand and can point out
the numerous species of animals found there. The best time to visit the
area is during the dry season from June to October to see the greatest variety
of mammals but the Pacaya-Samiria Reserve can be visited at any time of
the year.
Among the species that can be found in the Pacaya-Samiria Reserve are: sloth,
ocelot, jaguar, tapir, fresh water dolphins and hundreds of varieties of
birds. One of the best attractions of the reserve is the different species
of monkeys such as: howler, saddleback tamarin, capuchin, squirrel and spider
monkeys. Los Chancas Expeditions offers the visitor the opportunity to visit
this area of the Peruvian amazon by native dugout canoe accompanied by English
speaking guide with the option of a professional biologist expert in amazon
rainforest fauna.
