8 Days / 7 Nights Tour PA 05 (Round trip from Santa Cruz)Round Trip in 4WD from Santa Cruz to Pantanal PN OTUQUIS (RAMSAR Site)With several days speedboat rides and caves exploration, optional horseback riding of Bolivian Pantanal; visiting on the way Jesuit Missions of the South Chiquitanía (UNESCO Site); the Sanctuary and Tower of Chochís; Hot springs of Aguas Calientes. The Bolivian Pantanal itself includes a considerable variety of landscapes and fauna: from the rivers and lagoons with their alligators, capybaras, giant otters, many aquatic birds, etc.; through the floodable pampas and palm forests with their swamp deer, rheas and anacondas) until the dry forests with monkeys, tarantulas and seriemas. Thanks to the recent improvements of the road, the --stops included- 2 days trip each way from (and-or to) Santa Cruz, allow pioneer visitors to visit additional attractions of enormous beauty, unsuspected when you travel at night by train. We are opening new routes, some to hills in the past sacred, with petroglifs and rock paintings; others to sanctuaries and former Jesuit missions, these by UNESCO declared members of the Humanity's World Patrimony; also to thermal rivers of healing properties in gallery forests; or underground caves with stalagmites and particular fauna. Here we invite you to visit Pantanal, crossing by daylight with 4WD vehicle an almost uninhabited region, although rich in past architecture and history, where (leaving programmed stops aside) each few kilometers gives reasons to stop, either to admire a group of monkeys, ñandúes, ibises, birds of prey, either a great snake, or the rapid crossing of deer, foxes, grisons and others. This 8 Days Round Trip Program is a round trip from Santa Cruz or Samaipata, returning to the same towns.The 6 Days One Way Program to Pantanal from Santa Cruz or Samaipata can also be made in contrary sense, starting in Pantanal and ending in Santa Cruz or Samaipata.The 6 Days Round Trip Program starts at the Brazilian border, visiting all the Bolivian attractions here described.YOUR HOLLIDAYS in Bolivia with Michael Blendinger Nature ToursVisit www.discoveringbolivia.com or contact us please info@discoveringbolivia.com
