Megadiversity Tour - From the Andes to the Manu lowlands (17 days/16 nights)

Departure::
                   2006 - August/07th

From Cusco we descend the famous Manu Road through elfin and cloud forest to the Amazon lowlands. This route is known as the finest birding road in the world as no other route offers 1,000 species in so little time. In the lowlands we stay at the renowned Manu Wildlife Center, which features the world’s most visited macaw clay lick, a massive trail system, and multiple canopy platforms.

It has a huge trail system (including bamboo!) with a scientifically-designed grid system of trails that allows you to follow mixed flocks and hear all signing males. The Center offers a comfy blind at an enormous parrot and macaw clay lick, two 130-foot-high (40 m) canopy platforms, mobile platforms at fruiting trees, and two oxbow lakes.
