Stay at Sacha Lodge

Anyone in search of a remote jungle adventure in the Amazon will not be disappointed by Sacha Lodge. The observation tower suspended 94 feet above ground is almost reason alone to come here. From the treetops, you will discover an arboreal world few of us humans get to encounter – watch troops of monkeys moving effortlessly from branch to branch and a host of birdlife feasting on fruit and insects. There is also a canopy walkway through the treetops to access life in the trees at another level.

Whilst the lodge blends seamlessly into its natural surroundings, it does not forgo the comfort of its guests. The cabins have high thatched roofs and shady terraces where you can lie back in your hammock and listen to the sounds of the rainforest. The open-air Balsa terrace looks over Pilchicocha Lake, where an array of birdlife, caiman and giant otters come to bask and feed. At meal times, the restaurant serves fresh, organic meals inspired by the rich nutrients of the forest.

Experiences

Observation Tower & Canopy Walkway

The observation tower is suspended 94 feet above ground; from the treetops, you will discover an arboreal world few of us humans get to encounter - watch troops of monkeys moving effortlessly from branch to branch and a host of birdlife. Also, venture along the canopy walkway through the treetops to access life in the trees at another level.

Nature Tours

Visit the Yasuni parrot lick - an exposed clay riverbank full of life with many parrot species gathering there in the early hours. The butterfly house is another on the list, here they are breeding over 40 native species. Another option is to head into the rainforest with a guide and see the fascinating flora and fauna.

Creek Paddling

Hop into a dug out canoe with a guide and wind your way down streams. Feel like you are drifting into a lost word with the incredible bird song and spectacular sightings of swinging monkeys overhead.

Caiman spotting

Truly magical - not to be missed. Head off in a canoe accompanied by a guide when darkness hits, your path lit by starlight. Look out for the red glow of the caimans eyes glaring back at you as they float along.

True Travel was an absolute pleasure to deal with as we planned a special anniversary trip to South Africa. We worked with Felix who was always helpful, responsive and super informative. Everything was 5 star and perfectly planned. The hotels were superb and the tour guides were top notch. Felix filled our days with great activities and booked all of our delicious meals. The app kept us informed during the planning and as we travelled. The transfers were prompt, safe and informative. A FABULOUS trip all around. This was our second time using True Travel and I recommend True Travel to friends and family (and I already have). We cant wait to plan another special trip with them!
