Amazon Rainforest Tour Manu 6 Days 2026

Manu National Park 6 Days, We begin our 7-hour drive, by private vans, reaching an altitude of 3,905 meters (13,000 ft.). We’ll do a quick stop to visit “Ninamarca”, a pre-Inca cemetery, and the colonial town of “Paucartambo”.

Then we will descend the east slopes of the highland through “Cloud Forest,” which has lush vegetation (ferns, orchids, bromeliads, bamboos, etc.) We will enjoy spectacular views of the highland, and you’ll observe the wildlife such as: “The red Cock of the Rocks” (our national bird – “Tunky in Quechua”), Dazzling colored Tanagers, Quetzals, Trogon,s Tucans, and Hummingbirds. If we’re fortunate, we will be able to see our first yellow Monkey.

In the afternoon, we will arrive at “Mirador Lodge” (Lookout Lodge – 700 m), where you’ll have good accommodations to rest for the night (double rooms & private bathroom).

After dinner, your guide will brief you on the next day’s activities.

After breakfast, we will continue our drive to the Port of Atalaya (500 m). On the way, we will stop at an animal rescue shelter. Afterward, we will have a short hike to look for orchids, bromeliads, bamboos, monkeys, and birds. From the Port of Atalaya, you’ll embark on a 7-hour journey on a 15-meter canoe down the Madre de Dios River to get to the lowland rainforest.

While we drift down the river, we’ll enjoy the changing landscape and have the opportunity to see wildlife (flora and fauna) along the rocky banks of the river.

On our path, we will visit “Diamante”, a Piro Indian town with traditional homes.

In the afternoo,n we’ll arrive at “Maquisapayoj Lodge” (translated as “Place of the Black Spider Monkey”). Accommodations include double beds with a private bathroom. You’ll have an evening night walk to survey the area where you’ll find insects, frogs, snakes, caiman (alligators), and butterflies.

We board our motorboat early to travel upriver, making our way back to Cusco. Of course, during our boat ride back, we’ll have the chance to see more animals like capybara, turtles, or caimans. If time allows, we can make a stop at Aguas Calientes (Hot Springs) to have a swim, or we can visit Machuwasi Lagoon to look for some more wild animals. In the afternoon, we will arrive at “Soga de Oro Lodge”, where we’ll spend the night (double beds & private bathroom). You can also explore the night.

Very early wake-up call and breakfast. We embark on the motorboat for about 30 minutes to the parrot’s lick, where we will see the green and yellow parrots, birds, and other smaller animals.

Afterward, we will return to “Machuhuasi Lake” to board another raft for a boat ride (1 and 30 hours). Here you’ll have the opportunity to view other wild species of bird-like hoatzin. Finally, we will hike for one hour in the jungle. We stay the night at the lodge.
