Hacienda Herrera: where the jungle becomes an experience
Before becoming a lodge, Hacienda Herrera was a territory of living forest, river and family memory. Located on the banks of the Lower Madre de Dios River, the property belongs to the Herrera Zegarra family, guarding an Amazonian landscape that remained intact and full of life.
Nine years ago (2017), Kenny Herrera and Ruth Torres, ecotourism specialists, decided to transform this space into a purposeful project. More than building accommodation, they imagined a place where nature, education and responsible tourism could coexist authentically.
The first steps of Hacienda Herrera were always linked to science and education. In alliance with the Center for Education, Science and Conservation of Tambopata (CECCOT), they began to receive groups of students, including young people from the University of Miami, who found in this space a living laboratory to understand the Amazon.
Over time, the need arose to give sustainability to the project. This is how the ecotourism proposal of Hacienda Herrera was born: the design of experiences, programs and tours designed for travelers seeking a real connection with the jungle, local culture and biodiversity.
Today, Hacienda Herrera is a consolidated ecolodge recognized for excellence in service, quality of infrastructure and authenticity of its experiences. Our lodge is among the highest rated on platforms such as Trip Advisor and Booking, reflecting our commitment to each visitor.
Hacienda Herrera is more than a place to stay. It is a space where the Amazon is lived, learned and protected.
We are a tourism company that offers ecotourism and adventure tourism programs in the region in a personalized way, acting responsibly with conservation, research and education in the Peruvian Amazon.
To be a consolidated and leading company in the Madre de Dios region, a role model for other tour operators, strengthening research, restoration and conservation of biodiversity through sustainable development, with an impact on the inclusion of local populations.
Our team is made up of professionals specialized in ecotourism, dedicated to offering experiences that combine comfort, authenticity and environmental responsibility.
Each member of our staff has been carefully selected and trained to provide high-level personalized service, always maintaining sustainable practices that protect the natural environment and respect local culture.
Our local guides are true interpreters of the Amazon, with deep knowledge of regional biodiversity, including birds and mammals, as well as the traditions, stories and ancestral knowledge of the area. Through each tour, they invite our guests to live an exclusive and conscious experience, strengthening the connection between the traveler, nature and Amazonian identity.
The lodge is located just 10 minutes from Puerto Maldonado, in a pleasant boat trip.
Puerto Maldonado has easy access by air from Lima, Cusco and Arequipa, as well as land connections. From the city, the journey continues by river to reach the lodge, offering a first experience in contact with Amazonian nature.
