Manu National Park - is one of the most important tropical parks in the world, and was declared a " World Biosphere Reserve" by UNESCO in 1977. It is home to many different ecological zones between 4,000m (13,120ft) and 300m (984ft) above sea level. Manu harbors a unique variety of wildlife. Over 1000 species of birds, 200 species of mammals, many reptiles and 10% of all the plant species on the planet have been recorded within the park's boundaries. The great altitudinal range within the park means that Manu is home to several different ecosystems, which enormously increases the biological diversity of the area. The most southerly point of the park, Acjanaco, lies at 3500m above sea level and is described as Tropical Alpine Grassland. It has short, scrubby vegetation and the weather is often cold. Lower down is the Elfin Forest, characterised by low trees, cold humid air and very diverse fauna, including a rare species of high altitude Toucan.

Further down, between 1000m and 2500m above sea level, the Cloud Forest begins. This is a unique ecosystem which receives high rainfall and hosts a large number of endemic species such as the Spectacled Bear with glasses and the Cock-of-the-Rock (the national bird of Peru). One of the Manu Biosphere Reserve's many distinctions is that it currently protects the largest area of undisturbed cloud forest in the world.Lower still lies the High Forest, between the Cloud Forest and the Amazon Basin, a diverse landscape rich in fauna. Here many indigenous ethnic tribes have made their homes. The lowland Amazon Basin itself lies at about 350m above sea level. No other park on Earth can compare to Manu in terms of variety of life forms. It boasts 13 species of monkey and one of the world's rarest mammals: the Giant River Otter.. Access is either by chartered air or by a very long drive from Cusco. 3-9 day options for lodge-based, camping or combination tours. 9 Day Manu Wildlife Center and Camping , 7 Day Manu Nature Paradise , 7 Day Discovery Manu , 6 Day Manu Bio Trip , 6 Day Manu Adventure , 6 Day Paradise & Macaws , 4-5 Day Manu Wildlife Center , 3-7 Day Paradise Lodge , 3 Day Cock of the Rock Lodge , 5-7 Day Camping

Amazon Expedition - A unique trip down into the steaming Amazon basin of the Manu and Amarakeiri National Parks, far away from any form of tourism, in little boats, on cargo platforms of trucks and classic wooden freighters through Amazonia. Watch exotic wild animals “live“ in one of our earth’s largest rainforest areas, illegal gold seekers and Brazil nuts croppers at their work, participate in mysterious shamanic rites, live together with jungle farmers, take a swim in rivers in the middle of the jungle, ride on freight steamers and open pickups toward the Amazon metropolis of Manaus, jungle walks and visit salsa, cumbia and samba dance bars …There’s still plenty of the freedom of genuine traveling in Amazonia, every new day is still unspoilt and every human encounter awakes curiosity. This is a trip that adapts to the group of travelers and the circumstances in countless little details, something very special arises out of the trip itself!
