Pick up from the hotel to the airport, in the morning we will take the flight to Boca Manu. At noon we will stop in the village of Boca Manu and then continue the boat trip and one begins to realize why Manu is so famous for its wildlife.
On the banks of the river there are groups of turtles, white alligators or perhaps some ronsocos and much more. In the afternoon we arrived at our camp located in Cocha Otorongo, shortly after we organized a walk to visit the lake and the observation tower from where we have the opportunity to observe the wolves of the river.
At night, we return to our camp on platforms with roof and showers and toilets available.
Today we visit the Cocha Salvador which is 30 minutes away from Cocha Otorongo. We visit the lake to paddle silently on a catamaran that gives us the chance to observe the river wolves again and a variety of strange birds such as the sultana or the agami.
Later we walked on the main trails with the guide to appreciate the tropical forest. In the afternoon we return to our camp in Cocha Otorongo.
Today we woke up with the howling of some monkeys, but we have to get back to Boca Manu and fly back to Cusco. At airport the transfer will take you to your hotel.
