Description

Day 1: Cusco - Cloud Forest - Pilcopata Lodge We will leave Cusco very early in the morning in one of our vehicles. We will cross beautiful valleys between the Andes Mountains and picturesque rural communities. We will visit pre-Inca tombs of the Lupaca culture and then stop in Paucartambo, a beautiful colonial town, and visit the interesting town museum. On the way we will have lunch in the cloud forest. We will continue our descent through the cloud forest, an area rich in endemic species, such as the Spectacled Bear and the Cock of the Rock, a Peruvian national bird that performs a unique courtship ritual. We will also be able to observe orchids, bromeliads, ferns, etc. We will continue observing the spectacular nature along our journey until we arrive at our lodge, Pilcopata Inn, where we will spend our first night. Day 2: Pilcopata - Amazon Manu Lodge We will have an early breakfast and then visit a coca plantation and a wildlife rescue center. Then we will head to Puerto Atalaya, located on the banks of the Alto Madre de Dios River at 500 masl.
