Overview
Manu National Park Tours 7 Days
If a real exotic and tropical scenery features prominently in your Manu National Park tours 7 days. So Manu, Peru’s most famous national park, is the solution. Manu National Park & Biosphere Reserve, with almost a million hectares, is the country’s second-biggest protected area and one of the largest in South America. It’s also one of the greatest spots in South America to witness a wide range of tropical animals.
Manu National Park tours
Manu was designated a Biosphere Reserve by Unesco in 1977 and a World Natural Heritage Site by Unesco in 1987. One of the reasons the park has been so effective in maintaining such a wide tract of virgin rainforest and its animals is that it is distant and inaccessible to humans, and hence has not been exploited by rubber tappers, loggers, oil corporations, or hunters.
Manu is about as near to pristine rainforest as you’re going to get anyplace. Its environments are quite diverse, including the Andes mountains, cloud forests, and lowland tropical rainforests. A hectare (2 1/2 acres) of forest in Manu may include ten times the number of tree species found in a hectare of temperate forest in Europe or North America, and Manu has the most bird, animal, and plant variety of any park on the globe.
The reserve is one of the best in the world for birding (better than the rest of Costa Rica); additional fauna includes enormous river otters, cocks-of-the-rock, and maybe 15,000 animal species, as well as local Amerindian cultures that have remained undisturbed by modern civilization. The lower Manu River, the Rio Alto Madre de Dios, and a variety of lovely oxbow lakes are also part of the protected zone. More than 1,000 bird species — almost a fifth of all birds known in South America and 10% of all species worldwide — and more than 200 animal species have been documented. At least 13 endangered animal species, including black caimans, huge river otters, and ocelots, may also be found in the park. Botanists believe that Manu contains more plant species than any other protected area on the planet. Manu Zone Reserved 7 days

After this adventure, we return to Erika for breakfast, gather our belongings, and board our boat once more. We’ll go down the Alto Madre de Dios River to the hot springs of Aguas Calientes, which are surrounded by lush jungle. We’ll proceed to Boca Manu after soaking in the sea and eating a chilly lunch.

During this tour, you may witness a variety of bird species such as macaws, herons, pink rosettes, and, with luck, capybaras, caimans, river turtles, monkeys, and perhaps some felines lounging on the beaches or grazing in the nearby trees. In the afternoon, we spend our time trekking around this gorgeous forest in search of animals.
DAY 4. Reserved zone / Lake Salvador
The howler monkey will most likely wake us up early to declare his territory. We will discuss a morning stroll before breakfast since the temperature is more comfortable at this time of day and it makes it simpler to spot animals in quest of food. We will explore Lake Salvador via catamarán in the hopes of seeing the endangered gigantic otter. They are frequently observed fishing, playing, or swimming. We’ll be looking for the Black Cayman, Hoatzin, and other intriguing plants. We will visit Lake Otorongo and the observation tower, which is 15 meters high and allows us to completely enjoy the panorama of the surrounding primary forest, as well as the family of otters who live there. A brief night walk to search for American bullfrogs, horned frogs, tree frogs, and a variety of colorful insects may be possible.
