Immersive Bolivia wildlife tour: into the Amazon Rainforest
The Amazon region of Bolivia is one of the most diverse places in the tropics for animal watching, which of course, brings the excellent possibility of both birdwatching and photography.
This tour will give you the optimal opportunities to see many different, unique and endemic flora and fauna while being surrounded by the impressive natural beauty of the environment in places where very few people see.
With parrots and monkeys providing the ambient soundtrack, bathing with piranhas for the thrill, and the constant, unspoiled tropical fragrance, the Bolivian Amazon offers a complete change of scenery in a seemingly timeless environment.
It’s an adventure of discovery, what are you waiting for?

La Paz
Tag 1: Welcome to La Paz!
Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed by your driver and then transferred to the comfort of your hotel.
La Paz is one of the world’s highest capital cities and any stay here means an adventure with altitude.
Today is an essential day for your trip where you’ll be able to rest and acclimatize to the altitude and conditions during your stay. This smooth transition via rest will assure that during the following days, you can enjoy your tour without any concerns about altitude sickness.
The rest of the day will be free to rest or to continue exploring at your own pace and leisure. Why not explore the city via the new cable car system?

A private driver will pick you up from your hotel this morning and take you to the airport for your domestic flight to Rurrenabaque.
Upon arrival, we'll embark on a boat trip to visit a local community to learn a little about the way of life in the jungle. During the boat ride along the rivers Beni and Tuichi we can enjoy magnificent landscapes such as the Bala Canyon.

In the afternoon, we will walk to the top of a mountain where we can see macaws, parrots and other birds. From there we can watch these colorful birds, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the rainforest and a stunning sunset.
That night, if you want, we can take a short walk during which we have a great chance of spotting armadillos, snakes, monkeys, tapirs, nocturnal birds, etc. Often at night, you can hear the roar of the jaguar or puma.
