This was our 3rd trip to Brazil and Boute Expeditions have helped us on all 3 of them. They have been very good to work with and have given us many good recommendations to make our trips just how we want them. Their customer service is excellent.
On this trip I left my fanny pack in a shuttle van and Paulo went out of his way to get it back and then got it returned to me very quickly. Without his help I doubt I ever would have seen it again! My cell phone was in the pack and it would have been both costly and extremely inconvenient if it had not been retrieved.
Paulo and Marluce are always very helpful, efficient and friendly to deal with. We hope to make more trips to Brazil in the future and will definitely use Boute Expeditions every time.
Best Trip Highlights June, 2021.
Tuco-Tuco? What is that??
Tuco-Tuco sounds strange but, please, don´t blame yourself if, you never heard about it…Tuco-tuco is a rodent that lives underground, rarely seen or photographed…At the end of June, we had a guest, from USA, that came to Brazil for a Mammal Tour, and, the Tuco-tuco, was one of his targets. Where he saw and photographed it? The answer is: Reserva Biológica Alagado do Pacheco, located at the County of Viamão, at the Greater Porto Alegre, which is the Capital of the Brazilian State of Rio Grande do Sul. It was not an easy task: It was cold, windy & overcast…But, we made it! Congratulations & Thanks to Everyone that helped on this task, from the board of the directors of this important reserve,and, the local guide: Adilson.Birding during the pandemic? Is that possible??? Yes!!!
