★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 75 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $79

Spend about eight hours rafting the Urubamba River with Mayuc River Rafting, then cross the river by zipline and warm up in a sauna. Guides such as Amerigo, Anderson, David, and Gabriel lead the activities, with safety kayakers, equipment, lunch, hot showers, and hotel pickup from Cusco included.

“I’m so glad I had this experience. I’ve never done it before and I was traveling off peak so I happened to be the only one to book for the day. They still accommodated me and even though I was super nervous about the lack of people, I was reassured it would be okay and we took to the river and it felt amazing. The scenery alone was worth every minute. I never felt unsafe even as a complete novice. I opted to not zipline and spent time in the sauna and ate a delicious quinoa and pumpkin soup and chicken and potato dish that was probably easily some of…”

3.4 Day Tambopata Amazon Wildlife & Canopy Experience

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 72 reviews · 4 days (approx.) · from $585

Spend four days near Puerto Maldonado with a small group of up to eight people. Ride the Madre de Dios River, search for caimans, walk to Sandoval Lake, climb into the canopy, fish for piranhas, visit a parrot clay lick, and meet a local jungle family. Guides such as Andres, Carlos, Tito, and Romario have earned special praise.

“The lodge was in terrible condition. Our bathroom was dirty, and although a cleaner came daily to make the bed, they never actually cleaned the room. The pool smelled awful and was completely green — clearly neglected. The room also had numerous spider webs, which only added to the overall lack of cleanliness. To make matters worse, we later discovered that we paid double the price compared to another couple who booked offline at a local store — a frustrating revelation given the poor quality of the experience. The guide was able to help us spot animals, but offered very little information about the Amazon unless we asked specific questions.…”

“Really enjoyed the Adventure Hike, lots of pros with only a few cons, see below breakdown of the 4 days (I travelled early June 2024), some tips and a packing list of what to take. Day 1, Bike and Raft: Bike was great fun, very easy/beginner friendly as mostly downhill but get to pick up some speed while catching the views. Rafting was excellent with a few decent rapids. Accommodation was terrible, very basic shared hostel with only cold water shower (not ideal after rafting), food was average but didn't go hungry. Day 2, Hike: I'd class myself intermediate hiker and I found it pretty easy, there's a few hills…”

“We had a good time on the rafting trip. We didn’t get the bread that was advertised above. I do wish they stated that you needed to bring a towel and swim suit. The tour guides were great and very knowledgeable. I was worried about the water and getting sick but all good. We couldn’t do the zip line because it was raining so don’t plan on it if you go to Cusco in rainy season.”

Expect mountain views, safety gear, a small group, separate transfers between activities, and extra fees for site entry.

“So, this probably didn’t have a ton of reviews yet because it’s technically two separate tours - BUT they’re both awesome, and as long as you’re OK going with the flow, it’ll be a wonderful way to see some of the amazing elements of the Sacred Valley and Moray! You begin with one group which covers the ATV trip, Moray, and Maras. Our guide, Floyd, was amazing, and he gave us a super fun ATV ride AND amazingly detailed and insightful notes on the history behind the historical sites. This is where it gets a little weird - your first group will drop you off at the Zip Lines and…”
