1. Rurrenabaque – Pampa Estancia
We leave Rurrenabaque around 08h30 by private car for the Estancia. After about 40 minutes we arrive in the village Reyes where we visit the
archaeological and ethnographical museum. Here you can find archaeological, historical and traditional objects as well as explanations on the
customs, daily life and the region’s history. We continue and along the way we might be able to see a sloth, a caiman or a capybara. Upon arrival we
are greeted by the guide and we have time to get installed before we meet in the “comedor” where we have lunch with the workers. After lunch we can
relax in the hammocks or saddle the horses for a first ride to discover the surrounding pampa. On horseback we follow the entrance path to the
Estancia in order to get used to our horse and learn the basics of the way the “vaqueros” ride. We head towards “Los Macheros” which is an isolated
patch of tropical forest in the middle of the Pampa. We stop in front of an enormous “Mapajo” (giant tree) and go for a short walk through this unusual
area to discover the flora and fauna. Maybe we are lucky enough to see a sloth or the “lucachis” monkeys. We get back on our horses and continue
through the Pampa and we will most certainly pass herds of cattle and horses. Back at the Estancia we can practice our lasso skills before dinner. If
you want we can go for an evening walk to the “laguna de los caimanes” (the caiman lake) and see their red eyes in the beam of our lamps.

2. Pampa Estancia
After breakfast we leave either on horseback or on foot to the “Acrecito”, a humid area which borders the laguna by the same name. On our way we
pass the open spaces of the Pampa and tropical forest where we might by lucky to see the “chinchillos” (small monkeys with yellow coats). For lunch
we can either return to the Estancia or enjoy a picnic. After lunch we can sail in canoes on the “Acrecito” lake and if you wish we can bring fishing
canes to try and fish piranhas or “Tucunare” which are abundant in these Lagunas. By mid-afternoon we reach the opposite bank where we might be
able to see capybaras (the biggest rodent in the world). We get back on our horses to reach another laguna where we can appreciate the sunset over
the humid surface of the Pampa. We return to the Estancia for dinner and if our fishing trip has been successful we can enjoy the fish we caught.

7. Pampa Estancia – Rurrenabaque
After breakfast we leave by horse to “Portugal” the area of the Copacabana Estancia where our guide lives. Before discovering this other part of the
Pampa we make a short stop by an old cemetery which dates back to the time of the sugarcane exploitation. We arrive at “Portugal” where we have
lunch with our guide and his family. He will show us his “chaco” where we amongst others see yucca, banana and corn plantations and we can also
see some leather work. After this encounter and a busy day we return to the Estancia where we say goodbye to the workers at the Estancia and at
16h30 a car will bring us back to Rurrenabaque. End of our services
