Shortening the travel time …
To visit the Manu National Park, the reserved are<b>a</b> was not possible. So most programs were rigid and requesting a minimum of 6 days. Consequently, depending on arduous overland transport from Cusco. As a matter of fact, the Park was less visited and the traffic of boats on the Manu river basin was minimum. As a result, the forest and rivers remain less impacted. In contrast to other rainforest destinations In Peru; Iquitos and Tambopata. Both these areas have become more visited and gained much more popularity due to the provided facilities for larger tourism scale.
The Reserved Zone of Manu is a magical place and certainly holds more wildlife within it. This is the above all, jungle experience where few feet have wandered.
