PUQIO ECOLODGE

The accommodation is located about 20 to 30 minutes from Tarapoto. Tarapoto is a stressful city. In San Antonio de Cumbaza, on the other hand, you can find peace and quiet! In Puqio itself, you can really feel nature. The place is very natural and has many beautiful artistic details. It really is a dreamlike place! However, mosquito protection is essential in the area. Light-colored clothing also helps. ;-) Daniel and Mayra, the owners, are very nice and helpful. It was really nice to meet them! A must is swimming in the Cumbaza River – it's a great way to recharge your batteries! A trip to Catarata Huacamaillo is also highly recommended. You should allow enough time (at least 5 hours) to enjoy it to the full. You cross the river six times and then back again! Really great! It's best to visit the jungle during the dry season. Then you can go on more excursions. We also visited the Salto de la Bruja waterfall, which is very beautiful. All destinations can also be visited privately. You don't need a tour. However, you should find a taxi driver right at the beginning, because you will definitely need one to go on further excursions from Puqio. We traveled with Nixon – he was great! A visit to the Amazonia chocolate factory should also be on the agenda. We stayed at Puqio with our two children (8 and 11 years old) and really enjoyed it! The children fell in love with the place from the very first moment. For younger children, the location could be difficult, as the property is somewhat steep and you have to go up and down a lot. In addition, the houses are not designed for smaller children. It was perfect for our children. We had a very relaxing week at the Puqio Ecolodge and can highly recommend this accommodation!

Great place to relax. Very quiet. You feel immersed into nature in your lodge. Comfortable beds. The hosts are very kind and a good source of information for trips. Excellent breakfast.

Wonderful nature around the lodge. The hosts from puqio are very kind and helpful, they help you with everything you need to know and give you tips for some interesting daytrips. They have two wonderful dogs and cats and usually there are some chicken around.

Very nice location in nature and lovely hosts. We also liked the cats and dogs they have. If you want to get out of loud and busy Tarapoto and sleep in the almost as loud jungle, this is the place.

It takes like 30-40 minutes to get there from Tarapoto and there are not a lot of options for eating out. Also It wasn't clear if we can eat at the place. Often there was no water in the afternoon until the next morning, so we could only shower in the morning.

I had a very peaceful stay at Puqio! The area is absolutely beautiful and the hosts were lovely. Perfect place to relax and unwind. I hope to return soon!
