Paraguay / Uruguay Travel Packages
The most under explored pocket of South America, this area is rich in farmland, forest and folklore. The area is great for rural tourism.
Paraguay is a land locked country and the remains of Rio Parana is a testament to a major social experiment on the continent. The people are warm and hospitable and the mate flows freely.
Uruguay is a land of rolling hills best explored by horseback. Montevideo is the capital and the main port with seaside neighborhoods and a refurbished historical center.
A very popular resort is Punta del Este or travel the empty beaches and fishing villages toward Brazil to see sea lions, penguins and the occasional old fortress. Be sure and bring you binoculars because the bird watching is excellent.

We start our tour in the wonderful city of Montevideo. The next day we continue our ride in the amazing coastal province of 'Rocha' - protected area and declared world biosphere reserve - when we arrive at a hotel built in the same style as the nearby 17th century fort, right on the border with Brazil.
