The nearby Manu National Park and Tambopata-Candamo Reserve offer what may be the best wildlife viewing in the entire Amazon Basin. Manu National Park, half size of Switzerland, boasts more than 200 species of mammals including 12 kinds of primates, more than 800 species of birds, the highest diversity of amphibians in the Amazon Basin, and more insect species in one tree than all the insect species recorded in the British Islands.
Tambopata-Candamo Reserve shelters dozens of endangered species, and is home to macaws, herons, kingfishers as well as scores of other rare birds that are seen nowhere else on earth.
