Two jaguars in a day! Giant otter baby. Six species of primate and over 75 species of bird.
We had amazing sightings of wildlife at Manu Wildlife Centre and in Manu National Park from the boat.
We had an amazing time and loved all aspects of the tour, the local people, food and wildlife. We wish we had longer and would recommend doing Lima first to get over the travel (jet lag and altitude, but we appreciate that had to happen with tour length. We were really surprised at the lack of tourists – we were the only people at Romero and Manu Wildlife Centre and it is concerning to hear how quiet these places are since covid. We would recommend Peru to anyone wanting to see wildlife and culture!
Two weeks before [the winter solstice in June] they celebrate in Cuzco every day, with parades, music and dancing. We loved seeing all these celebrations and would definitely recommend this time of year to visit.
