  • Community

    The Posadas Amazonas Lodge is actually owned by the native Infierno community! Rainforest Expeditions has worked with the community since 1995 and they support the marketing and management of the lodge. Each year profits are shared among the households of the community, providing 25% increase to annual incomes, and around 20 full time jobs at the lodge.

  • Environment

    The lodge has been running Macaw research projects since it's inception and continues to support conservation of the species. They've also gone to great lengths to reduce their carbon footprint in all of their lodges - using locally sourced materials, installing energy and water efficient systems and much more. However, generating some carbon emissions is inevitable, so what they can’t reduce, they offset. Their three lodges are the first carbon neutral lodges in the Tambopata National Reserve.
