Pantiacolla Tours

Pantiacolla Tours is a Cusco-based ecotour operator running birdwatching, wildlife, and natural-history trips into Manu National Park — a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the most biodiverse protected areas on Earth. The operation is co-owned by a biologist and a partner born and raised in Manu, giving the company deep local roots in the buffer-zone communities. Manu's checklist exceeds 1,000 bird species, and Pantiacolla's itineraries traverse the full Andes-to-Amazon gradient from cloud forest down to lowland river systems. The company also operates the Pantiacolla Lodge in the park's lower reaches, where the absence of hunting pressure produces unusually good encounters with macaws, cracids, and large mammals.
