Birdwatching
4 Days / 3 Nights
The Peruvian Amazon groups together more than 2,000 species of birds and some 250 aquatic species. Although it is a large number, it increases seasonally with the migratory birds of Patagonia and North America. For this reason, in Muyuna we thought it was necessary to give it the importance it deserves, making a special program to observe birds and learn their customs, told by expert guides from the area. There is no other paradise in the whole world like the one around the Amazon River, specially for those who love bird watching. The most important and emblematic bird in the area of Muyuna is the Wattled Curassow (Crax globulosa). It is an Amazonian bird in critical danger of extinction, which sighting motivates birdwatchers to travel from all around the globe to observe this majestic bird. Peter Kaestner, among the top-5 Ornithologists on the planet according to ebird.org, recommend this package.
