What you might see

Sightings

While we cannot guarantee what nature will reveal, many of our travelers see howler monkeys, pink dolphins, blue morpho butterflies, scarlet macaws, caimans, capybaras, and anteaters...

Other critters you might see include turtles, butterflies, capuchin monkeys, squirrel monkeys, Victoria Regia water lilies, numerous orchid species, wood storks, harpy eagles, sloths, green & yellow macaws, parrots, horned screamers, and numerous other birds, mammals, reptiles, and amphibians.

Other large animals that inhabit the area and have been seen by our travelers include anacondas, tapirs, manatees, jaguars, and pumas. We're never quite sure exactly what you'll see - every trip is a new adventure for us too, and that's what makes it true exploration.

Riverboat and excursions

Riverboat

After major renovations in 2000, the renewed Reina continues to navigate the Mamore, Ibare, Secure, Tijamuchi, and other rivers, exploring night sky, remote lagoons, footpaths, lakes, white-sand beaches, savannas, and jungles of the Beni.

Our focus is nature - flora and fauna, and responsible interaction with the environment. 

We team with four small indigenous villages that co-manage our horseback, handicraft, wildlife viewing, and lagoon canoeing programs. We pay each village for every traveler that visits. We also work with CYMA, a small group of university-trained, native Bolivian biologists that provide expert guiding to our groups.
