Highlights
Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime journey into the heart of the Manu Biosphere Reserve. We’ll travel across the Andes into the mysterious cloud forest, where short walks allow us to spot exotic birds, orchids, and possibly monkeys. After an overnight stay at our private Manu Nature Lodge, we’ll embark on a 12-hour boat ride deep into the reserved zone of the Amazon, stopping at natural hot springs along the way. In the heart of the jungle, we’ll explore untouched primary rainforest, home to countless monkey species, colorful parrots, and giant trees. We’ll also visit the spectacular Macaw Clay Lick (Tambo Blanquillo), where dozens of macaws gather at sunrise. At night, a guided jungle walk reveals tarantulas, frogs, and other nocturnal creatures. We end our adventure returning to Cusco by boat and road via Colorado and Puerto Carlos, crossing both jungle and scenic Andean landscapes. A truly immersive and authentic Amazon experience.

About Cusco
Cusco, the old Inca capital high in the Peruvian Andes, blends massive stone walls with colonial churches and is the gateway to Machu Picchu.
The Plaza de Armas is the heart of the city, framed by the cathedral and the Jesuit church of La Compañía. Inca stonework survives throughout the centre, most famously at the Qorikancha, the sun temple on which the Spanish built a monastery, and in the twelve-angled stone on Hatun Rumiyoc street. San Blas, the artisans' quarter, climbs steeply with workshops and cafés.
Top-ranked sights in Cusco: Aguas Calientes, Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo Ruins.
