What's included
Itinerary
Today, we will pick you up early from your hotel in Cusco. During our Peru Amazon Tours, we will make important stops at various points. Our first stop is Ninamarca, a highly appreciated place where we observe pre-Incan tombs called "chullpas" from the Lupaca culture. We then continue to Paucartambo, a well-known colonial
town with narrow streets and a beautiful church, where local people still maintain their ancient customs. Afterward, we ascend to Acjanaco Pass (3,550 meters above sea level), considered the entrance to Manu National Park.
At Tres Cruces de Oro viewpoint (3,700 meters above sea level), we have the opportunity to admire the stunning view of the Amazon basin.
From there, we begin descending into the heart of the Manu jungle, passing through the elfin forest and then the cloud forest. We make stops along the way to explore and take short walks, experiencing the incredible
biodiversity of the Puna Grassland. With some luck, we may encounter the Andean fox, gray-tailed deer, and if we're fortunate, even the Andean bear (Tremarctos ornatus).
we observe the various ecosystems and ecological levels found in these open forests, epiphyte forests, and enjoy breathtaking views.
In this forest, we encounter a great diversity of species, including the iconic Peruvian national bird, the Andean cock-of-the-rock. Visitors will be amazed by the beautiful display of the male birds during their lek. We also have
the chance to see the woolly monkey, spectacled bear, and other exotic bird species such as toucans, golden-headed quetzals, crested quetzals, and trogons, showcasing their vibrant colors. As for flora, we observe ferns,
lichens, bromeliads, and orchids such as Odontoglossum, Epidendrum Pachyphyllum, Stelis, and Scaphyglottis.
In the afternoon, we arrive at our lodge, Pilcopata Inn (700 meters above sea level). There, we freshen up with a refreshing bath and enjoy a delicious dinner. Afterward, we rest in our private rooms at the Peru Amazon Tours lodge.
After enjoying breakfast, we will continue our journey in private transportation for approximately one and a half hours to the main port called Atalaya (500 meters above sea level). There, we will board our outboard boat to continue our trip along the Madre de Dios River. As we navigate the river and its rocky shores, we will observe
wildlife such as birds, capybaras (known as ronsoco), turtles, and sunbathing charapas (giant river turtles) on the beaches or fallen logs. Upon arriving at the lodge, we will be accommodated in our respective rooms. We will then explore the primary forests to observe a great diversity of species, including tarantulas, ants, butterflies, various monkey species, towering trees, exotic plants, and palm trees.
After this activity, we will return to the lodge for a delicious lunch. We will have a brief break to enjoy a refreshing bath in the hot springs or simply relax at the lodge. In the afternoon, we will visit Machuwasi Lake on wooden
rafts. At the lake, we will explore and observe a diverse range of animal species, including the prehistoric bird known as the hoatzin, reptiles, caimans, insects, groups of turtles, capybaras, armadillos, and sloths.
After this walk, our Peru Amazon tour will be unforgettable. We will return to the lodge to enjoy a delicious dinner. Later, we will engage in a nocturnal activity to appreciate other species such as monkeys, insects, birds, frogs, toads, and other animals.
Finally, we will return to the lodge to rest in our comfortable rooms with bathrooms and showers available.
Today, we will start our day very early, awakened by the melodious songs of birds. Afterward, we will hop onto a motorboat and cruise down the Alto Madre de Dios River for approximately 25 minutes. Along the way, we will prepare ourselves for a remarkable sight—the clay lick where parrots, parakeets, and macaws gather every
morning to feed on the salty clay found on the river's edge. Our knowledgeable guide will provide fascinating insights into this behavior, making it an unforgettable experience. We will then return to the lodge for a delicious breakfast.
After breakfast, we will pack our belongings and head to the port to board our outboard boat. We will make our way back to the main Atalaya port, where a private vehicle will be waiting to transport us back to the city of Cusco. The estimated arrival time in Cusco is between 6:00 pm and 6:30 pm,
