Secure
flights between Cusco and Boca Manu
The
Cessna Caravan has proven itself to be one of the most reliable,
versatile, and cost-effective airplanes ever built. Almost
10 years of experience managing first class tours programs
in Manu, InkaNatura Travel knows that Cessna is an excellent
choice for safe air transportation between Cusco and Boca
Manu, the air strip in Manu area.:
Cessna's top-of-the-line Caravan
lives up to its grand name. Thanks to a Pratt & Whitney
PT6A-114A engine and three-blade prop, it carries 100 cubic
feet and 500 pounds more useful load than similar aircrafts.
See for yourself why,
from Cusco to Manu, the Caravan is the preferred aircraft
for transporting people interested to know about this pristine
rainforest area.
Some Manu tour operators recommend
traveling through Puerto Maldonado, but they do not mention
that clients will spend more than 11 hours sitting in uncomfortable
fast boats/buses and, in addition, this route does not have
clean and decent bathrooms.
