A once in a lifetime trip

I was supposed to go on this tour a day earlier but the other group cancelled last minute and on the way there I realised I didn’t feel comfortable going completely alone as a solo female. The company understood and was very nice about it, they took me back to my hostel and offered for me to join the next day when there would be other people. The trip was very professional and a once in a lifetime experience. The guide José was extremely knowledgeable about different plants and animals in the rainforest and was realistic about what we could potentially see and what was unlikely. I saw lots of amazing wildlife on the trip and really enjoyed the jungle walks. The accommodation was obviously basic but I was surprised at the lodges having wifi and I even had phone signal as well. The food was incredible the chef is very talented and makes sure to cook enough that nobody goes hungry throughout the day. I would 100% recommend the tour to everyone.

Unforgettable experience in Manu

The Manu rainforest tour with José and Vilca was an unforgettable, one-of-a-kind experience. José‘s skills to spot animals allowed us to observe wildlife such as insects (butterflies, gigantic cicadas, leaf-cutter ants, bullet ants), a baby tarantula, frogs, colourful birds (cock-of-the-rock, quetzal, potoo, oropendolas, hummingbirds, Amazon kingfisher, orange-backed troupial, screamers, hoatzins, macaws, parakeets, Psophia trumpeter bird, white-throated toucans), fish (Pacu) and mammals (tayras, monkeys, capybaras (even if it was just a glimpse of a hidden individual)). He‘s been a guide for 20+ years and it shows: he frequently shared stories and facts about Peru, Manu and the local flora and fauna. The program was diverse and included a visit to an Inka cemetery, waterfalls, a hummingbird observatory, boat trips, jungle walks during the day and night, a raft ride and a clay lick visit. We were positively surprised about the delicious meals, which included various vegetarian options and even desserts. What we particularly enjoyed was the privacy of double rooms, options for single beds and en-suite bathrooms. All in all, it was an extremely well-organized trip that I can highly recommend to anyone who‘s eager to venture into the jungle and immerse themselves in the extraordinary Amazon rainforest.

Fantastic 4D/3N tour to Paititi Lodge Manu with Michell

We had a great tour with Michell, he was a really knowledgeable and friendly guide. The journey from Cusco to the jungle is spectacular. The Paititi Lodge was comfortable and Wilfredo the cook did a fantastic job of catering to the many dietary requirements of our fellow travellers. What really exceeded my expectations was the wildlife- we saw many spectacular birds and monkeys, capybara, insects and plants. We spent nothing beyond the cost of the trip itself - apart from a tiny amount for breakfast on day one and a visit to a bird sanctuary to see hummingbirds. All in all great value if you are travelling on a limited budget.

Operator response

Dear Traveler, Thank you for your fantastic review! We are so glad you had a great tour with Michell and enjoyed the spectacular journey from Cusco to the jungle. It is wonderful to hear that Wilfredo provided excellent meals at Paititi Lodge and accommodated everyone's needs so well. We are also thrilled that the incredible wildlife exceeded your expectations and that you found the entire experience to be such great value. Thank you for choosing Expediciones Vilca, and we hope to welcome you back again! Best regards, Martha

A magnificent experience

Magnificent experience at the Manu park. Everything was organized to perfection from start to finish. We had the opportunity to observe a large number of animals, plants and discover a unique lifestyle in this Amazon rainforest. I highly recommend this experience that allows you to discover another part of Peru.

Manu in 4 days

The booking did not show up on Viator, but once we found the organization and contacted them, it was no longer a problem. Changing the departure date also went smoothly. Our guide, José, was funny and very knowledgeable (thanks!). The drive to/in the national park is long with many switchbacks (it is actually 2 days of travel). We saw many animals and had a great group. We went rafting and were on a giant swing! Hummingbirds, monkeys, spiders, and especially ants!

Operator response

Dear Traveler, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with Expediciones Vilca! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your time with José! He is indeed a fun and incredibly knowledgeable guide, and we will be sure to pass your kind words along to him. It sounds like you had a fantastic adventure enjoying the rafting, the giant swing, and spotting all the amazing wildlife from hummingbirds and monkeys to spiders and ants alongside a great group of travelers. We also appreciate your honest note about the journey. The drive to the National Park is indeed long and winding, but as you discovered, reaching such untouched nature makes the travel time completely worth it. Thank you again for choosing to travel with us. We hope to welcome you back for another jungle adventure in the future! Best regards, Martha

Great to but book not though Viator but directly at the touroperator

ATTENTION: DO NOT BOOK TROUGH VIATOR. SCAM! I paid 400€ euro. If you book directory at the office you pay 300 dollar. Currencydiff. 150€. But: the tour was great! Great food! Great guide Mitchel who is motivated and enthousiastic. Rooms are good. And the nature is stunning! Great tour!

Operator response

Hello! Thank you so much for your feedback and for highlighting the great work of our guide Michel, the delicious food, and the stunning nature of Manu! We are thrilled to hear that the tour itself was such a success. We completely understand your frustration regarding the price difference and want to clarify why booking through third-party platforms like Viator costs more. Please rest assured this is not a scam, but rather the standard business model of global online travel agencies. When you book through Viator, the premium price goes toward the infrastructure and services they provide, such as platform commissions that allow them to market tours globally, highly flexible cancellation policies that act as premium travel insurance, 24/7 global customer support in multiple languages, international payment processing, and guaranteed advance availability to secure your spot. While walking into our local office directly avoids these third-party costs, it also comes with the risk that our tours might already be fully booked upon arrival. Booking online means you are paying for the security, convenience, and guarantees of a massive global platform months before your trip begins. We are so glad that, despite this surprise, you loved the jungle and our team's service, and we truly thank you for recommending the actual tour experience! Best regards, Martha

An unforgettable experience in Manu!!

An absolutely unforgettable experience in Manu!!! We want to especially thank Wily, our guide, for his great professionalism, knowledge, and passion for nature; he made every tour unique. Also to Don José, our driver, for his commitment and enormous dedication throughout the trip, and to Frida, whose excellent cooking made every meal a true pleasure. Just as a suggestion, we believe it would be important to review the driver's working conditions. The safety and well-being of the team are as important as the travelers' experience, and having adequate rest times would benefit everyone. Thank you very much for an adventure we will always remember!

Operator response

Tomamos muy en cuenta tu sugerencia sobre los descansos del equipo; la seguridad y bienestar de todos es nuestra prioridad. ¡Gracias por acompañarnos y por ayudarnos a mejorar! Saludos, Martha

The best trip with the best crew!

Miguel was an absolutely incredible tour guide! He was extremely knowledgeable on so much of the local flora and fauna in the jungle! Not only was he informative but he was absolutely fun and hospitable! He made sure we were always comfortable, well informed, and accommodated to the absolute best of his and our abilities. He also allowed there to be room for some free time where we could decide what we wanted to do and how to spend our time if we had something in mind. The food was phenomenal and the views were spectacular! 10/10 would recommend and definitely plan to make this trip again in the future!

Operator response

Thank you so much! We're thrilled that you had a 10/10 trip with us. Miguel will be so happy to hear your kind words about his knowledge and hospitality, and I'll definitely pass your compliments to our kitchen team as well! We can't wait to welcome you back on your next jungle adventure! Best regards, Martha
