What you can expect

You will be picked up at your accommodation in Santa Cruz by our driver. He will drive you to the nature reserve of the Bolivian foundation AFASI. The ride takes about one hour. After a welcome drink (fruit juice) our experienced local guides will lead you through the wildlife sanctuary and explain in detail the characteristics and secrets of the local wild animals. You will see among others 5 different species of monkeys, pumas, coatis, martens, wild pigs, foxes, toucans, macaws and land turtles . In the “kindergarten” you can meet young monkeys and, depending on the condition of the animals, also pet them. The tour of our sanctuary lasts about 90 minutes.

After a short break we will start our discovery tour through the swamps and along picturesque lagoons (we will probably see caimans, but surely water turtles) and depending on the weather also frogs and other reptiles. Our rainforest is very interesting because we have plants from three different climate zones (Gran Chaco, Amazon and influence of the nearby Amboro National Park). With a little luck we can observe sloths, wild monkeys and different birds. We will also show you how beautiful the flora is in tropical Bolivia. We will adjust the length of the hike according to your wishes.

We will have lunch in our homely restaurant, while wild monkeys are watching us. We also have a vegetarian option.
Then we start our tour to very interesting rock formations in a dry valley, only about 15 minutes’ walk away. These red rocks fascinate all visitors very much and the vultures there are omnipresent. This tour takes about one hour. If you don't want to do a 2nd hike, that's no problem at all! Just relax in our restaurant during this time.

At 5 pm at the latest our cab will take you back to Santa Cruz.

We are looking forward to meeting you!
