The Manu Reserved Zone 6 Days And 5 Nights tour with localtrekkersperu is a complete, start-to-finish expedition into one of the world's most precious natural reserves. From the moment we pick you up in Cusco until we drop you back at your hotel, every step of this journey is an expertly guided exploration of Manu National Park and its staggering biodiversity, which includes 210 species of fish and over 1300 species of butterflies. This adventure is designed to be a seamless, educational, and breathtaking experience.
The Journey
We begin in the Peruvian Andes, where your guide will introduce you to the fascinating history of Paucartambo and the ancient Pre-Inca Tombs of Ninamarca. The journey then takes you into the cloud forest, a stunning transition zone where you will search for unique plant life and animals like the national bird of Peru, the -of-the-Rock, before settling in at the Bamboo Lodge.
The next leg of the journey is by river. You'll board a motorized boat at Atalaya Port, traveling down the Alto Madre de Dios River to explore the beautiful Machuwasi Lake by catamaran. After a relaxing stop at the natural thermal baths of Aguas Calientes, you'll reach Dorado Lodge for your first night in the deep jungle, complete with a night walk to look for nocturnal wildlife.
The true highlight of the Manu Reserved Zone 6 Days And 5 Nights tour is entering the Restricted Zone itself. It's here that the chances of seeing a jaguar on the riverbanks are highest. Your guide will take you to famous sites like Otorongo Lake and Salvador Lake, where you can watch for giant river otters. You'll also visit a Macaws Clay Lick and spend time with the native Matsiguenka tribe. The adventure continues with an optional night at a shelter to observe large mammals at a clay lick. Your final journey is a scenic trip by boat and private transport back to Cusco, leaving you with memories that will last a lifetime.
