Our guide will teach us about the area, the spectacular flora and fauna, the birds and the fruit in this vibrant area in Cusco, Peru. Tonight we will sleep and eat under the stars.

Day 3:

Passing through small jungle towns with their effervescent atmosphere we make our way to the port of Ivochote. Here we will board our motorized canoe for the journey through the magical Pongo de Mainique and the rich jungle.

On arrival to the Pongo we will have the opportunity to admire the beauty of this truly spiritual area and the waterfall portal to the afterlife for the Machiguenga Indians.

We will then leave the Pongo for Esperanza campsite our home for the next few days.
