The Peruvian Amazon

The few days we spent at the Manu Wildlife Centre were amazing. From Puerto Maldonado we took a 3 hour van ride, followed by a 10 minute boat ride to cross a river. Into local taxis for an hour and a half, then a five hour boat ride. The jungle got thicker and darker the more we traveled. 
The area around the lodge was absolutely filled with wildlife - the tapir visited, macaws were plentiful and watching a troop of squirrel monkeys frolic in the trees was an absolute delight.
