 Established in 1964, 80 km (50 mi) down
the Amazon River, Explorama Lodge is deep in primary rainforest
and offers two-day or longer excursions. Romantic kerosene
torches and lamps illuminate palm-thatched houses with
10-17 private sleeping rooms. Covered connecting walkways
lead to the Tahuampa Bar, the Dining Room, the Sun Porch
and two Hammock Houses. Showers & toilet facilities
adjoin each house. A variety of treks are offered, including
the Seven Bridges Trail.
Explorama Lodge is the first of 5 different
lodges in the same area under the guidance and management
of Peter Jenson, a pioneer who started to put his vision
into practice in 1964. The other lodges are Ceiba
Tops, ExplorNapo Lodge, ExplorTambos
Camp, and the ACTS Field
Station. The map shows location of all these. You can
stay at several lodges during your trip to the area, and
this is frequently done. For suggested possibilities, see itineraries.
