We booked a 7d/6n tour of Manu, with the aim of experiencing the Amazon Rainforest and seeing lots of wildlife. Manu Explorers certainly made this happen before and our question was answered quickly, and during the trip our guide was brilliant, a real Manu expert. I would highly recommend!

The excellent service provided made the tour highly enjoyable for all group members, also the guide knowledge of the local flora and fauna was attending. Furthermore the tour itself was amazing, made better by the almost handless services of the crew; overall an incredible experience and I would by recommend Manu Explorers Peru.

A great trip where you really got to experience the jungle for real, our guide was the best at spotting different animals and knowing their behavior, and was very concerned about our safety .The cook was really excellent and we were well fed. On my birthday he even managed to cake in the middle of the jungle.

Overall a very good experience .I value your connection to Casa Machiguenga the local people .Manu Explorers provided a great eco –Tourism adventure, visiting casa Matsiguenka deep in the Manu jungle was unlike any others travel. I have experienced the people who work for the company really represents the spirit of the indigenous people honor the beauty of this rare landscape.

Carlos was fantastic! His knowledge of all the species of plants, animals and history was vast .Most important,he has ability to communicate that knowledge at an extremely high level .I d highly recommend him to anyone interested in tours Manu. Agustin was amazing in the kitchen .I did not expect to eat as well as medio .I particularly liked that he featured specialties of the jungle such as juane .Everything was fresh and delicious.

It's been a while that we got back to Switzerland but we still love to think and talk about our time in South America. We especially love to look at our amazing pictures from Manu national park. We had a fantastic time there. Thank you very much for this experience.

My friends and I had an amazing time on the 7 day tour into the reserved zone of Manu National Park. I have been travelling for three months and this trip was by far and away the highlight for me. Our guide Alci was outstanding. She was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable as well as being able to spot every insect from half a mile away. Manu Explorers have clearly done their research on the best routes to take and the best times to visit certain areas. Blanca was the name of our cook and her food was absolutely superb! Her and Alci made us all feel very comfortable and ensured that we had the best time possible.
I would highly recommend Manu Explorers as a great Company to book through.

Just done the 7 day 6 nights Manu tour by bus in November and it was amazing! Very, very informative and useful guide who clearly knew a huge amount about the jungle and could use this to find some amazing animals and birds for us to get the chance to see. Although there is a lot of travelling over land for this tour it is very interesting travel mostly as within a few hours from Cuzco by coach you are already in the cloud forest. The lodges which we stayed in were all great and the food which was prepared for all our meals was amazingly good!! (Never had the same thing twice!) This tour is a lot of money, but well worth it!

Hallo Wilbert, I want to thank you very much for the wonderful travel to Manu with your company. My friend Hilke and I really enjoyed the three days in the Manu National Park. But you were right, 3 days are to short for this great experience. So the next time we will book a 9 days tour.
The guide Darwin was an excellent enthusiastic guide, who was not content until we have not seen so many animals and his knowledge about the Selva and its animals and plants was enorm. So I think he was a very competent guide.
Fernando was really an excellent driver and in some difficult situations on the street he reacted very calm and competent. The cook was very nice and we enjoyed her home cooked meals. So all in all we enjoyed our exclusive travel and were sad that it was much too short.

Manu Explorers was our best Choice!!! we had great days with full adventure, exiting moments and fun, the whole team did their job, we always feel well and safe.
We all enjoy our days in Manu!!
2010-09-25 Helmut Schneider
We had the best experiences with Manu Explorers, still a small company with familiar touch!
Guides have a lot of knowledge and made our 9 days in the jungle a perfect time. Stay a familiar and friendly company as you are now!
2010-09-25 Lukas Capitany
Manu Explorers is a great company, because the people who work with them are above you and the guides know a lot and are professional and nice. The members of Manu Explorers did a Great Job and they are an excellent choice if you want to have a great and enjoyable time in Manu National Park.

I can highly recommend this company to everyone! Everything was just perfect. Our guide Rive has a great knowledge about flora and fauna. He spotted every tiny insect from a far distance.The food was outstanding! Prepared with love!
I could have stayed much longer than one week. It was so relaxing, far away from traffic and hectic. If I come back to Peru, I definitely will go to the selva with manu explorers again.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

This trip was incredible. It was one of the most intense experiences of my life. I have never been so close to nature and for me this trip was a dream come true.
The guides were very informed and explained everything there was to know about this environment. They were good friends along the way and not only did they explain a lot, but we had a lot of fun together.
I would recommend this trip to everyone that once wants to experience this unique habitat of the rainforest!
The tour was not at all commercial, as we feared a little bit, that we would be driven from one marketplace to the other and have to buy souvenirs everywhere, but on the contrary. we were far off all people, civilization and stress.
It was a great trip, thank you so much for this experience!!
