Chullpas de Ninamarca - hullpa or chullpar is an ancient funerary tower of Aymara and Quechua origin, with an angular or round base, originally built for people of high status in the Aymara and Inca cultures.1

The Collao chullparia tradition dates back to the 13th and 14th centuries, after the fall of Tiahuanaco, and its use as a mausoleum for authorities quickly became traditional in areas adjoining the highlands until the beginning of the 16th century (colonial-early).2

A superb expedition - Top organization. The Guide was a very good companion. Lots of advice, lots of explanations about fauna and flora. We were able to observe an incredible amount of birds, observe and follow colonies of monkeys in the forest, observe lobos del rio in one of the 2 lakes we sailed on. The captain and sub-master of the boat were also great and participated in the success of this trip in Manu Park

Perfect trip to observe wildlife and meet locals - I went to this 7 days /6 nights tour in Manu with two other friends, accompanied by Edson as a guide. We had a wonderful experience from all points of view: well-organised logistics, very kind and professional staff (captain, guide, cook) and of course the incredible contact with the local populations, the nature and the landscape. Edson is an excellent guide, he has lynx eyes to spot birds and other wildlife, and he patiently shows them to you. I appreciated that he stopped to observe wildlife, not just rushing through. His English is good and he has extensive knowledge about wildlife and the local customs. Highly recommended! Hasta la proxima!

A ride into the deep of the jungle - We went on a seven-day tour to the reserved zone of Manu National Park. Our guide Edson was knowledgeable and passionate about nature. He shared lots of information about the wildlife and planned the day to our wishes. He also gave us an insight about the local communities in Manu. The wildlife was impressive! We saw black and white caimans and giant otters in their natural habitat. Walking through the jungle, we enjoyed the rich flora including the giant trees. The colorful macaws and parrots were a highlight as well as seeing the national bird. We also saw different kinds of monkeys like capuchins, howlers, and spider monkeys. The only point to consider is the long ride by car and boat to get deep into the jungle, but it's worth it for the experience. I recommend this tour for anyone interested in nature and wildlife.

Lots of jungle and lots of laughter - Excellent experience. We saw a lot of flora and fauna, beautiful landscapes and together we soaked up the Manu River, the jungle, its sounds and inhabitants. The guide José Medina is a high-level expert and a very good travel companion. Together with the other two passengers we met on the tour we spent an unforgettable week. Highly recommended.

Taz (tour guide) amazing, organisation not so - Due to medical reasons we downgraded to the 4 day tour. Taz our guide was amazing and it was clear he really cared about this important environment. He was also very knowledgeable and good a spotting animals and we saw lots in our 4 days including cappuchins, spider monkeys, lots of big bugs, capybara, tapir and lots of birds! He was also really personable and had great English skills. It was really lovely to have a very passionate tour guide. I can however not give 5 stars as the organisation beforehand was terrible. I requested a vegetarian meal through viator multiple times, and whatsapp however we get to the first lunch and I get the meat option. Luckily Taz and the chef were able to sort a vegetarian option for me for the rest of the trip. We also really struggled to clarify the pick up location as they say they'll pick you up from your hotel but gave no option to tell them which hotel and even after I told them we still recieved no confirmation that we would be picked up from there. The lodges we stayed in were nice, however the fly nets in the windows and the mosquito nets above the bed had holes in. Patiti lodge also had steps that were very treacherous and our room wan out of water and never really properly worked again after that.
