Estancia Alice in Argentina
The adventure starts . at the antique sheep shearing shed where the walking tour begins through trekking ... paths that lead to the lagoon “Laguna de los Pájaros” and the lake “Lago Argentino”. The expedition to our nature reserve includes birdwatching of over 40 migrating species .. which visit us from the beginning of Spring and which often nest in the reserve by the lagoon. The tour continues to the ancient Indian camping ground where archeologists .. from the University of La Plata have been excavating and studying their culture. . It is hard to imagine this trip without watching our Kelpie dogs mustering the flock from their pastures to the shearing shed. There you will see how sheep are shorn and how wool is baled. The tour ends with a delicious patagonic lamb barbecue, fresh salads and homemade desserts at our cozy restaurant with a magnificent view over the "Lago Argentino" and the "Cordillera de Los Andes".

Nearby:
The Upsala Glacier is a huge mass of ice 902 square kilometers,
60kilometers length, 4 kilometers width and 60meters height above the
water level. It has two main fronts, the occidental and the oriental,
which is frankly diminishing. Part of its front is hanging in the air
not even touching the water; this provokes total or partial breaks of
its steep fronts, and large icebergs floating on the lake. One of the
best views to the oriental front is from the Cristina Watch point in
Estancia Cristina.

Brazil Adventure in Brazil
Specialized trips to the Amazon,Patanal, sand dunes,Amazon fishing trips and anywhere else off the beaten track. Our goal is to show our guests the various ecosystems and cultures that define the region in a relatively short period of time. Though fishing is a primary part of our trips, we also offer side excursions to areas of interest, such as Amazonian cattle ranches and local Indian Villages. Due to the inaccessibility of Brazil's vast interior, this land of plenty has been overlooked by tourists for years. After having lived in the interior and experiencing daily the wonder of the region the owners of Brazilian Adventure Travel formulated a plan to bring Americans to the area so that they too, could experience this lost treasure.
