5.00Good way to get in touch with the life of the river: people, animals... history. And sunset...
The best way to get a feel for Paraguay's vast spaces, nature, and wildlife, and its people.

5.00This tour was epic. Guillaume (fluent in English, Spanish, and French) gives you a whole day exploring this river, with all its colourful and impressive birdlike, visiting some ranches, but otherwise enjoying the solitude of this tranquil river. Lunch was authentically Paraguayan and delicious. And the howler monkeys were a great bonus. This tour is a no trainer for visitors to Paraguay. Merci Guillaume!
Beautiful day in the heart of Paraguayan nature!

5.00An incredible experience in Paraguayan nature in the heart of biodiversity, cultural landscapes and local hospitality. Guillaume is an excellent guide (Francophone but not that) who knows how to share his passion for Paraguay during a getaway on the Rio Paraguay to observe many birds and screaming monkeys. Everything was perfectly organized and shared. Not to be missed!
If you like birds and boats, this trip is fo you!!!!

5.00Guillerme was great!!!! His knowledge of birds and animals is up there and he caters very good to people trying to get pictures of these animals. He keeps his boat very clean and the lunch and the added afternoon snack with coffee was an added experience. He helps out as much as he can and even changed the booking as it rained the day I booked it. A very accommodating person and very fun to talk to.
The best activity near Asunción

5.00Beautiful activity, very relaxing and close to nature. We were able to observe many birds and monkeys in their natural habitat. The duration of the activity is quite long, from morning to evening, with many stops. In addition, all the food is homemade and we enjoyed an incredible sunset by the river.
