Colombia’s eastern Los Llanos region is one of the world’s richest tropical grass plains. Located East of the Andes mountains and North of the Amazon rainforest, this hidden corner of South America is one of its most remote wilderness areas. The landscape, being characterized by savannas, wetlands, rivers and forests, houses some of the continent’s most iconic animal and bird species along the Orinoco river - the rumored road to El Dorado. Around 700 different bird species is found here, as well as over 100 mammals and reptiles.

Los Llanos is a paradise for wildlife photographers and nature enthusiasts because of the high concentration av wildlife, hence its nickname the «Serengeti of South America». Especially the reserves Altagracia and Hato la Aurora are two prime locations for observing the regions flora and fauna. Giant anteaters and giant river otters are both high lights of this tour, but in none other parts of the region the chances are higher of seeing the mighty jaguar, South America’s largest feline. This is also the best place in the world to see the world’s heaviest snake, the Northern green anaconda, and one of the world’s rarest reptile, the Orinoco crocodile.

We’ll be staying at local accommodations and explore different habitats on foot, with jeep and in cano to focus on the best nature experiences and the best opportunities for wildlife photography. This is an expedition designed to give you a unique nature experience and to let you explore this remote region of Colombia. Colombia is one of the world’s most biodiverse places, and the country with most bird species, so this will be a nature expedition you’ll never forget.
