berraco del madidi-day tour

I highly recommend this tour company. The price is very reasonable (more than budget pampas and jungle tours, but less expensive than expensive eco-lodges), the guide and staff were very knowledgable, friendly and professional. The the huts and tents were comfortable and the food was delicious. Hammocks and the fruit and vegetable garden are a wonderful touch. We saw much more wildlife than expected. Catfishing was very fun. Overall a very active and enjoyable trip!

+ the Berraco Lodge is located deep in the Madidi National Park. The boat ride from Rurrenabaque takes about six hours to the lodge, so you are definetly away from civilization.+ the accomodation are modern tents which are set up on wooden platforms. In the tents are very comfortable bed-matresses, much better than we expected. The tents and the platforms are very solid and clean. Currently they have three of these platforms which are nicely separated from each other, so you have your private area.+ there is a shared shower & toilet house, which is separated from the sleeping-platforms but not too far away. It has white tiles and is 100% clean, in the middle of the jungle! The toilet is a modern sitting toilet with toilet paper and the shower provides a lot of fresh water.+ food is served on the living-room-platform, a couple of meters away from the sleeping-platforms as a buffet. There are always nice fresh juices with the great meals. The food was very tasty and sufficient for all of us.+ most important was the english speaking guide who did a fantastic job! He was extremly knowledgable and could tell and show us so many things in the jungle that we did not stop learning for three days. + activities are jungle walks at daytime and at nighttime, where you see lots of animals and plants and together with the explanations of the guide these are very interesting walks. We went fishing one afternoon and caught a catfish and one morning, we did handicraft work and produced rings and necklaces out of nuts and other natural materials. It was awesome what our guide showed us and what we produced. My 12 year old daughter loved it!+ staff overall was very professional and very friendly. They were very flexible as well and adapted to our wishes concerning food or activities.- the boats are not equiped to protect you from heavy rain. On the way back we got in a tropical rainfall. Without our ponchos, we would have gotten very wet ;-)

La empresa Berraco del Madidi es una empresa que tiene un real compromiso por el medio ambiente, sus ambientes son excelentes, el cuidado y la atención en la limpieza es impecable. Y a uno le cuesta creer que esta en medio de un parque nacional

Fui con mi novio en enero del 2012 al campamento sobre el rio Tuichi de Berracos del Madidi. Habiamos arreglado el pago y los detalles en la oficina que tienen en La Paz en la calle Sagarnaga.Durante esos 5 maravillosos dias fuimos tratados con la mejor atencion posible. Dormimos en un area techada montada sobre una estructura de almendrillo realmente muy bella.Nuestro guia fue insuperable, ensen/andonos sobre el lugar, las plantas y los animales. La cocinera Kindra nos hizo todos los dias menues diferentes con ingredientes de la zona y todavia recordamos los panqueques, licuados y pescado cocinado en can/a de Bambu.Nadar a las tardes en el rio Tuichi fue increible. Una experiencia inolvidable!!!
