Life-changing wildlife experience in Manu National Park We went on a 6D/5N tour to Manu reserved zone with Alex. This was an awesome experience and we would 100% go with Green Amazon tours again and recommend them to others. It was very wildlife focused which was exactly what we wanted. If considering a trip to the Peruvian Amazon and are a wildlife enthusiast you must book a trip that goes into the RESERVED zone rather than just cultural zone. Although expensive, Green Amazon charges a rate comparable to other operators that go into the reserved zone and we thought it was good value for a once in a lifetime experience. Alex is incredibly knowledgeable about the local flora and fauna having grown up locally in the jungle. He has a knack for spotting and listening for animals, and was kind enough to help us get great photos using our phones with his high resolution telescope. He is friendly, respectful of others including wildlife, professional and speaks excellent English. He went out of his way to make sure we got the most out of the tour, including answering our many questions. We were lucky enough to see many giant otters, black caiman, cabybara, macaws, toucan, >30 other species of birds, many species of monkeys. We were not lucky enough to see jaguar, sloth or tapir. Heavy rain on our first night in the jungle and high river levels likely affected this (going during dry season would optimise your chances accordingly to Alex). Alex however did his very best to try optimise our chances including modifying / personalising parts of the tour for this. I understand many of his clients do see these animals with his expert knowledge and spotting ability. 6D/5N was a good amount of days to ensure we weren’t rushing into the reserve, and that we had adequate time while there. The long drive and boat trips did not seem arduous due to frequent stops for wildlife spotting and walks. It is a small locally owned company which is part of the reason we chose Green Amazon. There was just 2 of us on our tour, but the groups are limited to 6 maximum to ensure a more personal experience. We felt very safe and cared for during the trip. Accommodation was good (basic as one might expect in the jungle!) with mosquito nets and clean toilet facilities, and the food was great during the tour. We did not go hungry! Thanks so much Alex and Green Amazon Tours!

Nice Discovery My friends and me, enjoyed an unforgettable 6-night, 7-day adventure through the vibrant rainforest of Peru with Green Amazon Tours, combining wildlife exploration, cultural encounters and immersive nature experiences. We traveled deep into the Amazon through guided hikes, night safaris and trips along pristine jungle rivers. Every day revealed new surprises - colorful birds, playful monkeys, giant trees and breathtaking landscapes. We stayed in comfortable eco-lodges surrounded by pristine nature, enjoyed fresh local food and expert guidance from trained naturalists. It was truly a great discovery.

Great experience with space for discovery and personal wishes We had the most amazing and special experience in Manu Park with Green Amazon tours Peru. For five days we were guided by Alex where you are taken from the high mountains through the cloud forest to the rain forest. Alex took the time to admire animals and nature and there was a lot of flexibility for adventure so we ended up at beautiful waterfalls and spontaneously went swimming here. You sleep in nice places surrounded by nature and are well looked after by a cook who travels along. A big plus of all is that Alex has a lot to tell from his previous experiences growing up in the forest, volunteering as a ranger and as a research assistant.

Amazing, once in a lifetime experience! We did the 3-day / 2-night Manú national park tour with Green Amazon Tours Peru. It was an amazing experience and I would suggest everyone to do this trip if they have time to spare in Cusco. Our tour guide was Alex and he was the reason that the tour was so great. Clear communication from the beginning, forthcoming and helpful. After being picked up from the hotel, we started our journey to the jungle. Along the way we stopped multiple times for animal watching and Alex's incredible ability at spotting animals made this trip unforgettable. We saw so many amazing animals throughout this trip hidden in the trees and bushes of the jungle. With the help of Alex's telescope we saw the animals up close and could take amazing pictures with our smartphones. You have the real jungle experience sleeping in lodges close to nature, which is an experience I never had before (you have running water and WiFi!). The boat trip was our highlight and the hike through the jungle was perfect. Alex was very knowledgeable and was eager to share his knowledge with us. Also the night and morning hikes were super cool and allowed us to see night active animals. Moreover, you can enjoy local, typical and tasty food throughout the trip. We felt really taken care of and will recommend this trip to anyone of our friends!

Authentic, safe, and deeply insightful Amazon tour—Alex’s passion & expertise made it unforgettable. Highly recommended! We joined Alex and his team for the 5-day/4-night Reserved Zone tour, and it was truly exceptional. From start to finish, Alex demonstrated outstanding professionalism, deep knowledge, and genuine passion for the Amazon. He shared so much insight with us—not just during the guided activities, but even during transport, where he remained alert and often made spontaneous stops to show us something fascinating.We always felt safe and well cared for. The tour was intense in the best way: immersive, educational, and full of memorable moments. Communication was smooth throughout, and Alex’s English is excellent. His team was incredibly attentive and made sure we felt comfortable at all times.This was one of the most authentic and enriching travel experiences I’ve had. I wholeheartedly recommend GreenAmazonTours to anyone seeking a meaningful and well-organized adventure in the Amazon.

An amaz(o)ing experience with the best guide We booked the 6 days / 5 night tour into Park Manú and it was an AMAZING experience! Where to begin?! First, Alex is the perfect guide; extremely knowledgeable, a great (great!) eye for spotting and very easy to communicate with. His crew (cooks, driver, captains) are very good at their job and everything ran so smoothly (from pick-up to drop-off, timing of activities and of breakfast/lunch/dinner). This allowed us to just enjoy everything we saw and did. The longer trip allowed us to go into the reserved part of Park Manú, which added to our experience. What we saw was incredible: so many birds, insects, mammals, trees, ... complemented with stories/context by Alex. The 2hour long encounter with the Giant Otters may have been my favorite. The fact that we were with a small group (first 1,5 day with 6 people, then continued with 4 for the longer trip) also added to the experience. The food was great as well: both the vegetarian as the non-dietary restricted meals were very tasty and well calculated: always more than enough, but not too much leftovers either. Rereading my review, I see it's with a lot of superlatives, but every one of them is true. We're very grateful for this experience and cannot recommend Alex and his business enough. Thank you!
