Guyana, Suriname, Brasil, Paraguay, Uraguay, Bolivia, Argentina Trip

Hey fell TTers,

Been reading the forums for a number of years, and decided its about high time I get on here for some advice, insight, comments, etc! I'm a 26yr old guy, traveling solo for the first time, but pretty experienced traveling in general.

I'm coming down from Toronto, Canada for 2 months in South America, and looking to make the most of the time I have. Going to be end of November till the end of January. Definitely going to be taking some flights to cut down on some time, but not too many because I actually like traveling on the ground and seeing the sights.

I'm starting in GT, Guyana with some friends and then making my way solo for the rest of the trip to Suriname for a day or two. From there I'm thinking a boat trip from Manaus to Belem, bus (or plane if there is no bus) to Salvador, and then bus to Rio, with stops wherever in between. I'll definitely be in Rio for at Christmas and New Years, thinking two weeks as there's a lot I want to see and do nature and activity wise, as well as party wise (definitely want to party up in SA). Then onto Sao Paulo, Fernanda de Noronha possibly if I can afford it, and at least 4-5 days in the Pantanal as I'm huge into wildlife. Iguaza Falls of course as well. I'm up in the air from here as the best way to get to BA, Valdes Peninsula, other animal spots and check it out as well as the Salt Flats in Bolivia. Uruguay and Paraguay I haven't researched too much yet, but their right in between so I want to stop there too.

I know its probably too much to do in 8 weeks, but do you think its possible, and what kinda route? If not, things I might want to cut out? I definitely want to see the major sites such as the falls and Corcovado, but as much wildlife as possible, and a lot of partying and dancing. Also planning on a bunch of activities like bungee jumping, skydiving (depending on cost), cliff diving, hang gliding, rafting, climbing etc.

Planning on doing this on a budget of 3-4000CD, which is basically USD. Haven't booked anything in terms of internal flights, places to stay or activities, so I have an open schedule, even if I have a basic itinerary I can divert to do what I want when I'm there. I'm guessing I should be booking stuff in Rio though because of the the time I'm there?

So would appreciate any advice in terms of travel, stay, places to see, party, wildlife, recommendations, everything pretty much. Nothing in set in stone, so I'd love your help! Thanks a lot in advance!
