Posted on Tripadvisor 悦桐 曾Verified Fantastic! Fantastic trip!! Really nice guide, fun jungle exploration and cool tubing! By the way, food is really tasty!Posted on Tripadvisor Adventure17148511439Verified Highly recommend Highly recommend it!!! The host provided truly warming assistance and guidance. The tour and memory with them is really great. Really appreciate that! The food here is good as well by the way. :)Posted on Tripadvisor Bas vVerified Great all in one experience! Some trips are once in a lifetime. This was one of those trips. Together, we took the plunge and traveled over 500 kilometers through the Peruvian Amazon in seven days with our private guide, Vidal. We became part of his family for a week, and he treated us accordingly. He taught us a great deal about the area, the animals and insects, the sounds, surviving in the jungle, taking night walks for several hours in the pitch black, and crossing waterways, both on foot and by boat. There was no internet and only 3 kilos of luggage (your choice). The activities were sometimes tailored to your level of activity, and there was plenty of opportunity for questions and friendly conversation. The tree houses were comfortable, and the entire setting of the "camp" was beautiful. We would recommend this seven-day trip to everyone. For us, three days would be too short due to the vast distances you have to cover to get from point A to point B. Vidal is a fantastic guide with an incredible amount of experience. He was born and raised in the jungle. He made our trip a great success!Posted on Tripadvisor Bas vVerified Best guide ever! Some trips are once in a lifetime. This was one of those trips.

He was born and raised in the jungle. Many thanks Vidal and family!Posted on Tripadvisor Claudia RVerified Very personal, family-run experience We joined a 5-day tour into the Reserved Zone of Manu National Park, and it was an unforgettable experience. Because of external reasons, the planning had to be done very spontaneously, but Vidal managed to organize everything on very short notice. He involved his family right away, which made the whole experience feel very personal and well taken care of. The atmosphere during the entire trip was extremely relaxed, friendly, and full of laughter. Vidal grew up in the jungle and has deep knowledge of the local nature, wildlife, and environment. His English is very good, making explanations and conversations easy and enjoyable. The food was another highlight of the tour. Vidal’s wife, Daisy, cooked amazing vegetarian meals for us every day. Even during long boat rides, she managed to prepare fresh food – something we did not expect at all in such a remote place. Manu National Park is a truly unique and magical destination, and experiencing it with such a warm, knowledgeable, and well-organized team made the journey even more special. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable Manu experience.Posted on Tripadvisor MBS_0804Verified Amazing tour of Manu National Park! I had a wonderful time at the Amazon Treehouse! Vidal took our group on many amazing forest walks, where we saw macaws, capuchin monkeys, a white caiman, a bamboo rat, and many spiders and other insects, and he enlightened us on his indigenous culture’s ways. The treehouse accommodations were delightful, Daisy’s cooking was magnificent, and Romario was a terrific driver. I highly recommend for a first exposure to the Peruvian portion of the Amazon basin.Posted on Tripadvisor Cindy CletoVerified Unforgettable Manu National Park Tour! Amazing 4-day trip to Manu National Park. Vidal and Deysi were wonderful guides and hosts. We stayed in a beautiful tree house overlooking the forest and river, with tasty, fresh Peruvian food cooked for us throughout. Such a unique experience! The walks through the jungle were incredible, with Vidal spotting and showing us a variety of monkeys, birds and reptiles. Incredible opportunity to see wildlife where it belongs! We also had wonderful experiences like floating down the river, fishing and night walks. Unforgettable experience with an amazing Peruvian host! We've made friends for life. Would highly recommend. Thank you!Posted on Tripadvisor susang178Verified Magic adventure At Bio Manu we had an adventurous 4 days in the jungle sleeping in the treehouse, with night and day walks in the jungle and delicious meals. It was a great occasion to see many amazing trees, insects, birds, monkeys and even a caïman! We loved going down the river on inner tubes with nothing but the forest and its sounds around us. Many thanks to our wonderful guide and amigo Gabriel who took good care of us and showed us the magic of the jungle! All our best to the whole team at Bio Manu including Daisy, Vidal, Melia, Marco and our super driver Freddy. Thanks everyone! Susan and Raphaël (France)Posted on Tripadvisor Hélène AVerified Un séjour inoubliable ! Nous avons passé un séjour exceptionnel avec Vidal! Le logement se trouve dans un lieu paradisiaque, en pleine selva et loin des touristes, et le balcon de notre belle chambre donnait sur la rivière. Nous nous sommes régalés tous les jours, les plats étaient fins et délicieux, et nous avons découvert la cuisine péruvienne à chaque repas, bravo Lady !! Vidal est un guide hors pair, nous avons fait des excursions de jour et de nuit et avons vu plein d'animaux. Encore merci à toute l'équipe pour cette expérience que nous n'oublierons jamais 🥰Posted on Tripadvisor Clement2335Verified Amazing experience in the jungle It was an amazing experience ! Everything was great, it a dream come true to walk an explorer this incredible place! All the walks in the jungle, the activities and the meals were wonderful! Vidal and his family are truely kind and lovely people who will do everything possible to make your stay the most awesome experience possible. I will never forget them! Thank you so much again!
