- The Complete Manu Biosphere Reserve Experience
Manu Jungle Trips – Manu National Park: This Trip is the Complete Manu Experience because we visit all points of interest in the Manu Biosphere Reserve and National Park. From Cocha’s Salvador and Otorongo, the pristine Manu River, the Blanquillo Macaw Lick, Mammal and Tapir Licks and walk-up Canopy Towers. A fantastic combination of comfortable lodges and wildlife attractions.
MANU NATIONAL PARK RESERVE CENTER: The Manu Biosphere Reserve is one of the most pristine areas of wildlife in the Peruvian Amazon, which in the Manu River in the park. Activities such as hunting and fishing are not performed. The Reserve is very strictly controlled and visitors are only allowed to visit with tickets and guides with their professional card, especially with its operator agency of the Manu National Reserve. All of your time in the park will be with your guide, from your departure from the city of Cusco until your return to the city of Cusco. Tours to Manu National Park must be organized in advance in order to avoid any problems with your departure for the Manu tour.
LOCATION EXTENSION AND ZONES OF MANU NATIONAL PARK: Manu National Park is located in the southern part of Peru in the departments of Madre de Dios and Cusco Province of Manu and Paucartambo. Territories of the districts of Fitzcarralt of the province of Manu and district of Challabamba and Qosñipata of the province of Paucartambo comprise all the the Manu River Basin and the left bank of the Madre Madre River; the area of the park lies 65% in the department of Madre de Dios and 35% in the department of Cusco.
THE MANU NATIONAL PARK HAS THREE ZONES: The Core or Natural Zone, which makes up the intangible area that covers an area of 1,532,806 hectares, is the indigenous territory where the land is used according to tradition, without any restrictions for native groups, where tourists and any other foreigners are prohibited to enter without authorization from the headquarters of Manu National Park.
The Transitional or Cultural Zone of Manu National Park covers an area of 91,394 hectares where the colonists and some indigenous communities of Machiguengas are found, forming a buffer zone in the core of the Manu National Park, where there are no restrictions on economic activities, as can be seen in our maps. The three areas that make up the Manu National Reserve contains 13 different ecological zones ranging in altitude from 200m to 4,000m, meaning that it has an incredible variety of flora and fauna.
Excursions to Manu National Park are expensive as (Manu Biosphere Reserve) (Manu Cultural Zone) However, it is sometimes possible to get discounts on official prices. If an agency has a fixed departure for a day or two and if it still has spaces, it may be willing to offer our departure date are fixed for this 2017 (if you have a date available for the tour to the Manu we need a deposit of 50 %, minimum of 2 people, maximum 10) You can make your reservation with our company Manu Jungle Trips.
International companies operate in the Manu Reservation with their own transportation, such as land transport and river transport, and they have their own land and shelter that leave no income to the communities and indigenous peoples who for years and centuries kept this reserve in its natural habitat. Today just some agencies try to work along with them, giving work income for their families and generating work for the local population inside and outside the Manu National Park Reserve. The Reserved Zone consists of an area of 257,000 hectares designated for tourism and researchers with a rational treatment of resources.

Travel Program
Day 1: Cusco to the Mountains of Manu Cloud Forests
Leaving Cusco after breakfast around 7:00 am we travel through traditional Quechua communities and through the spectacular eastern ranges of the Andes to the village of Paucartambo, passing snow-peaks and small Andean farmsteads. We will have time here to look around this picturesque village with its colonial stone bridge and handsome plaza. We then ascend to the last pass overlooking the Amazon Basin and begin the breath taking descent from 3500 meters to 1600 meters above sea-level to our comfortable lodge in the orchid laden Cloud Forest. This is a spectacular journey passing cascading waterfalls and multicolored birds along the way. In the late afternoon, we’ll walk into the lodge to the sounds of Quetzals, Trogons and Gray-breasted Wood-Wrens. Night at our selected Cloud Forest Lodge (Paradise or Cock of the Rock Lodge)

This is a wonderful sight, as up to 25 bright red-orange males dance and sing, attempting to attract the favors of the duller, burgundy colored females. After visiting this lek we return to the Lodge for a leisurely breakfast and continue in our bus to the Madre de Dios River and our motorized dugouts and begin our journey down the river, through the last folds of the Andes past the isolated Pantiacolla range where the lost gold mining city of the Incas, Paititi reputedly lays hidden!.

Day 3: El Dorado Lodge to Cocha Salvador
If there is activity, we may visit a clay lick where many parakeet and parrot species eat clay in the mornings. Also the smaller macaws such as the Chestnut-fronted and the scarce Blue-headed Macaws can be found there. Heading down the Madre de Dios River after breakfast, we’ll pass settlements and native communities during the trip. Just before we get to the village of Boca Manu we pass the native community of Diamante. Their culture is Piro and this is the largest settlement of Amerindians in the area. We turn up the Manu River leaving the relatively clean waters of the Madre de Dios behind; we enter the clay-laden waters of the Manu River. We’ll check in at the park ranger station at Limonal to present our permits and may visit an overgrown oxbow lake where many Parrots and Macaws come in to roost. We are now deep in the pristine Manu National Park and Rainforest. We head upriver – as deep into the park as allowed, to Cocha Salvador. Beaches, especially in the dry season, are loaded with nesting birds and feeding Herons, Egrets, Orinoco Geese, Terns and Skimmers to name but a few. Some beaches will host sunning White and Black Caimans (South American relatives of the Alligators) and breeding Side-necked Turtles. Hundreds of Sand-colored Nightjars roost during the day on logs and beaches and there is a chance of encountering a sunning Jaguar – the world’s third largest cat. In 2016 one in three of our trips saw Jaguar in Manu. We will see some species of primate on this river trip, possibly Colombian Red Howler Monkeys or the smaller Black-headed Squirrel Monkeys.

Day 4: Cocha Salvador
A full day at Cocha Salvador. Some of the time will be spent canoeing the lake on floating catamarans observing ox-bow lake animal life from the water. We may encounter an Agami Heron or a Sungrebe and Shock-headed & Large-headed Capuchin Monkeys are usually feeding on fruits nearby. Specially constructed piers that jut out into the lake enable us to look for a family of Giant Otters that live here. These, the world’s largest freshwater carnivores, remain common only in Manu and few other places on earth, having been hunted to extinction throughout most of their former range. Each animal consumes between 4 and 5 kilos of fish daily and often they can be seen eating large fish on logs at the lakeside. This morning we have time to explore the trails in the area and a visit to the lake of Cocha Otorongo is planned, where observation piers and a 20-meter observation tower in the rainforest canopy overlooking the lake are available for observing wildlife. We will also be on the lookout for a large family of Giant Otters that inhabit this lake. Night at our selected tented camp.

The afternoon is set aside to relax or, if you want, to explore a trail through the untouched forest to a canopy platform and an observation tower. The canopy platform is accessible via a spiral staircase so everyone can get to enjoy the rainforest canopy. Those who wish can participate in a night walk with your guide in search of nocturnal animals and visit the Tapir Lick. Tapirs, the largest South American land mammals are frequent visitors with up to 12 animals visiting in one night. We watch them from the comfort of mosquito nets and mattresses from our specially constructed blind. Other nocturnal creatures are always possible.

Day 6: Manu Wildlife Centre
Early in the morning we’ll make an early start for the Blanquillo Macaw Clay Lick. This is truly one of the world’s great wildlife spectacles as hundreds of Parrots and their larger relatives, the Macaws, congregate at this traditional locality to eat the mineral rich clay that is essential to their digestion. The Blanquillo Macaw Clay Lick is a section of the banks in the Madre de Dios River 6 meters high and 250 meters long. Hundreds of Orange-cheeked, Blue-headed parrot, Mealy and Yellow crowned Parrots other species parakeets attend. A little later in the morning, Red and Green and Scarlet Macaws arrive. Not only birds use this clay wall as a source of needed antacids. Mammals such as Tapirs, Red Brocket Deer Colombian Howler Monkey can be found. Eating clay is mainly to neutralize their pH, which has been acidified as a consequence of eating green fruits and also to absorb various nutrients of clay, which are not found in their daily diet. The observation platform or blind is a platform-observatory 8 meters high and 50 meters long This blind/hide is very well located only 50 meters from the clay lick wall, which allows extraordinary photos and due to its positioning, it’s possible to take very sharp pictures when the early morning sun illuminates the lick. The blind counts on comfortable swivel chairs and a long table used for equipment support. A hearty breakfast is served in the comfort of this location. To enter, you have to arrive early in the morning (5:20 am) and walk for about half an hour (at a normal pace) through a trail that crosses secondary forest. The noise alone is incredible and the sight of these brightly colored birds at the lick is a sight not to be forgotten. Here too are groups of Black Spider and Capuchin Monkeys. We head back to the lodge for lunch and a siesta in the hammock area of the roomy cool lounge area of the lodge. In the afternoon we can explore the forest, lakes and trails around the lodge. We’ll explore trails where groups of Manakins, perhaps the most enigmatic of neo-tropical birds, perform their strange mating dances. We may want, to explore a trail through the untouched forest to a lookout point on a cliff over the river to watch roosting flights of Parrots and Macaws as the sun sets or along quite trails looking for primates such as Emperor and Wedell’s Saddleback Tamarin’s, and we have seen the rare Goeldi’s Monkey and the strange Pale-winged Trumpeter e have seen repeatedly in this area. We’ll be on the lookout for Gray’s Bald-faced Saki Monkey, an uncommon and rarely seen monkey of the terra firma forest that is occasionally seen here. Night at the Manu Wildlife Center

About the meteorological conditions of the climate, we try to organize the trips of each tour in the best season to have the best views and enjoy the selected trip but sometimes even is good season we can have bad weather, in this case on hiking or treks trips The complications are minimal, but when this happens during high-altitude climbing expeditions, the complications can become very difficult, that is why the bosses or leaders of the local guides must always make the most correct decision for the safety of our passengers, so we always recommend listening to the best advice from the local guide assigned for each tour. If you have any other questions please contact us. For calls or inquiries to this number: +51 943 081 066
Can I join a group?
We as a local company and connoisseurs of tours have departures on different dates. The best thing to do is to join a travel group to take care of your budget, and of course you can join our groups, but on trips like mountaineering we recommend going in small groups. To join a group, ask us for the dates and we will send you the necessary information to be able to join any of our trips.
Why go in a private trip: For trips whether trekking or high mountains, going privately is the most recommended option, but the costs are more expensive. So, if one joins a group, the prices will be more reasonable. In the mountains, the only disadvantage is if you are in a wall with another partner and if one of the participants gets tired or gets sick. In this case, you have to abort or cancel the summit and return together. For more information, contact us. We can schedule a call via WhatsApp to clarify all your questions.
In a mountain, for example, if 3 people go and one of the participants falls ill on the route, for security reasons they have to cancel or abort the summit or return all together. The same in a technical mountain if the climbing partner gets sick they all have to return, for these reasons sometimes it is better to go private only because for a single person the costs are more expensive for the same reason that the trip would already be private .
