there are many agencies in Cusco where you can quote prices but be careful, usually, after covid 19, other agencies stopped working or closed permanently, and there are irresponsible agencies that only sell to sell, prices vary between backpackers with a price of $ 280 with a group of 15 people and more VIP $ 650 with small groups of 8 people, and also looking at your trip advisor can decide your best option

there are 2 options to reach the Manu National park, one of them is starting from Cusco by bus which is 240 km passing through Paucartambo which is 9 hours by bus, then down the river to Boca Manu and following by the Manu river to reach the national park.
These 2 incredible zones are located in the Manu Reserve which is the common name and well known worldwide, the Cultural Zone or Buffer Zone which is the area adjacent to and surrounding the Manu National Park, in this area one of the plans and objectives is to reduce the pressure of human activities, of course, the Buffer Zone is also known as the cultural zone where there are guiding activities of 3 days and longer trips are in the Reserved Zone of Manu Park which are 6 days or more.
Peru has and hosts 14 different parks throughout its territory, it aims to preserve the different species of flora and fauna for future generations who want to visit this exotic place and make known through the tours the vast history of Peru and Manu national park.
The extraordinary Manu National Park is located in the regions of Madre de Dios and Cusco, Peru. It protects a number of diverse ecosystems consisting of humid forests and cloud forests.
Tingo maria is located in the famous region of Huanuco, its main attraction is the cave of the owls, MANU is located in the region of Cusco and Madre de Dios.
Manu National Park, for a long time neglected, today the Peruvian government taken more importance and is a refuge that is becoming popular worldwide, located at the point of the tropical Andes and the Amazon basin, in the southeast of Peru.
Every year it is becoming popular worldwide for the impressive animals of the extraordinarily rich and diverse fauna of Manu National Park, where we have the most outstanding animals, the Peruvian jaguar, the ocelot, the giant otter, the puma, the armadillo, the tapir, the cock of the rock, the deer, macaws and a great variety of monkeys.
The Manu National Park protects one of the richest varieties of flora and fauna of the Amazon basin includes more than 1000 species of birds and a great variety of mammals and it is important because it is considered the last lung of the earth and the task of all is to protect it for the next generations.
before there were no bathrooms and they were very uncomfortable for the passengers, nowadays the different agencies bought land and built very cozy places, basically lodgings where the client is more comfortable.
in the Manu National Park, in the different camps, there are places to charge your cameras, cell phones etc , until 9 pm because they use solar panels and other camps have electricity but the recommendation is to carry portable batteries
be careful in drinking water on this tour, they are not treated for human consumption or to brush your teeth, all companies carry bottled water to drink just have to ask the cook or guide to not have stomach problems.
yes, but the most recommendable is to book with a travel agency in Cusco or by internet and learn about flora and fauna since all the guides study from 3 to 5 years and do a 3-month course every year.
the food is very varied, breakfasts offer scrambled eggs, pancakes, oatmeal, bread, jam, coffee, and butter.
For lunch, they offer soups, noodles, scrambled vegetables, and pasta.
For dinner, noodles, and vegetables.
In general, the food is typical Peruvian dishes and with Afro-American and Chinese fusions, in this tour, not much meat is consumed because it spoils quickly even in the refrigerators due to the humid climate.
The best season to visit is between the months of April to September where there are sunny days to see the diversity of flora and fauna and to take the best photos and at night with a full moon and make tours of some animals that usually walk, in general, you will not regret to make this excursion these months.
The best option is to take a tour with an agency to learn more about the flora and fauna and be more confident that your guide will be attentive to any questions you may have.
The Manu National Park is divided into 3 distinct zones: reserved, cultural, and intangible. The government has set aside 2 zones for tourism activities and the intangible zone is dedicated only to scientific expeditions and is the largest area.
Reserved zone: there are many activities that you can do one of them is to navigate the Madre de Dios river to observe birds and different species such as the jaguar and there are day and night tours.
Cultural Zone: This is the most accessible zone where you can appreciate the biodiversity, see the customs and traditions of the indigenous people, and taste the food of this place.
