Excursion en bateau sur la nature et la faune du fleuve Paraguay au départ d'Asunción

Great way to view Paraguay countryside and wildlife. The guide/driver was excellent. The wildlife was not at its peak because it was the middle of a 3-day windstorm that had most of the critters seeking shelter elsewhere but we still saw a lot of birds.

Saw many birds. Informative guide. Beautiful scenery. Highly recommended!

Our guide, Esteban, was amazing. Warm, personable, and extremely knowledgeable about Paraguay wildlife. With his assistance we saw 35 species of birds, including the elusive Toucan, as well as monkeys and even a fox! The drive was easy, the boat ride peaceful and we got a good glimpse into life in this beautiful country beyond Asuncion (which we enjoyed as well). See Paraguay now before the secret gets out!

Estéban was such an amazing tour guide! Gave lots of information, and he’s definitely an expert at identifying and finding wildlife; I was impressed at how quickly he was able to tell what we were seeing. Definitely recommend bug spray to avoid mosquitoes. We enjoyed the empanada snack, as well as the refreshments provided. Would highly encourage anyone visiting Paraguay to get outside of Asunción on this tour.

Best day ever! Guide was knowledgable on every topic. Fun and funny too. Perfect English. The ranch is more than idyllic - kind family, fun pets, great food. Highly Recomended! 😀😀

Our family of 2 adults and 4 kids were looking for a way to discover some of the natural beauty in Paraguay. We found this service online and it was better than we ever could have imagined. By car and by boat we were guided through some wonderful areas where we were lucky enough to see many bird species, caiman, fox, frogs, toads, insects. Estaban was able to tell us so much about the area and species. The boat trip and reception at Arturo's place is also perfect. Our next visit to Paraguay will include another (longer) trip with them to the Chaco. I am certain this will again be a highlight that we will be talking about for many many years.

This was one of the best tours I’ve been on. Esteban went out of his way to make our day special. He even took us to a special store on the way home so my daughter could buy a specific souvenir. Arturo and Dianna were gracious hosts. Breakfast was delicious. Birds, birds, and more birds. Parakeets, kingfishers, hawks, toucan, herons, and so much more. The rivers were beautiful and the morning tour beat the heat. If you’re considering a nature tour, this one won’t disappoint.

This was an amazing day trip as we saw so many birds and a monkey. I am travelling solo and joined a small group (5 plus our guide) which was really nice. It was very well organised. The guide was extremely friendly and very knowledgable about the wildlife, surrounding area and Paraguay in general. The lunch and snacks provided were amazing. The pace is super relaxed. We walked briefly in parts and took the boat on 2 rivers. It was ideal and a great way to see nature. I would highly recommend this trip and the company as they provide multiday tours.

This was such a unique experience I’m writing this review a few years later, I still think about it often. Very unique cultural experience; very raw and real. If you’re going in the morning I suggest drinking coffee beforehand because the boat ride is so relaxing me and my friends fell asleep. We saw so many incredible bird species and saw the locals fishing and taking care of livestock. Raw untouched nature is all around you. Highly recommended for nature lovers.

First, my sincere thanks to the company for going off the standard itinerary to accommodate two truly old travelers (not just “senior citizens”). That flexibility set the tone for a memorable day. Our small group—my wife (French), myself (USA), a gentleman from Romania, and our French guide—made for an easy, friendly dynamic aboard the boat. The river ride itself is wonderful. The water is opaque and muddy, so don’t expect to see beneath the surface—but that hardly matters. The banks are dense with lush, vibrant greenery, and birdlife is abundant and beautiful. It’s a peaceful, immersive experience. We stopped at a rural farm. “Rural” here meaning genuinely remote and very basic. There is no electricity or running water, which gives you a real sense of how people live off the grid. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted by an enthusiastic and affectionate young dog named Oso (“Bear”), who quickly became part of the experience. The farm is a working cattle ranch, with cows and chickens roaming freely. To an untrained eye, some of the cattle appeared lean, though they are grazing on open pasture and are likely well adapted to those conditions. One young calf, however, appeared to have an infected front leg and digestive issues that seemed to require medical attention, which was difficult to see. Overall, this was an authentic and memorable excursion—beautiful scenery, rich birdlife, and a glimpse into a way of life far removed from the usual tourist experience.
