Home About Us

Founded in 1988 by Luis Raffo, Tambo Blanquillo Lodge was born as a natural refuge in the heart of the Peruvian Amazon. Spanning over 400 hectares within the buffer zone of Manu National Park, our lodge protects a unique ecosystem that is home to three lagoons, an impressive macaw clay lick, mammal clay licks, and a panoramic tower rising above the rainforest canopy.

Since our beginnings, we have been committed to conservation and to providing authentic experiences in direct connection with nature. Our guides, deeply connected to the environment, accompany each traveler on a journey that goes beyond observation—a true immersion in one of the most biodiverse places on Earth.

Today, staying true to our essence, we take a step forward and expand our experience to Cusco, integrating new destinations that celebrate the cultural richness of the Andes. This expansion is rooted in a deep belief: every place has an essence that deserves to be preserved.

For this reason, we work hand in hand with local experts who keep ancestral traditions alive and share their knowledge with respect and authenticity. Our approach is not only about showcasing destinations, but about honoring their identity and creating a positive impact on the people who call them home.

Traveling with us goes beyond traditional tourism. It is about connecting with nature, with living cultures, and with oneself. These are experiences that transcend the journey and remain in your heart for a lifetime
