Barba Azul - december 2013

Country forums / South America / Bolivia

Hello,

we will visit Bolivia in December 2013, with a focus on wildlife and landscapes. The Barba Azul reserve is on our list, but prices are high, especially as you have to charter a flight. If there are any other people who would like to share a visit to Barba Azul, they can contact us through this forum, which would enable us to keep prices lower. We would probably like to go around 12-15 December, but we are a little flexible and can also go a little later. We are a European couple in our early 30ies. More information on Barba Azul: http://www.birdbolivia.com/Barba%20Azul%20Nature%20Reserve.html

Pity! I would love to meet up with people, but will only be in Bolivia nov 20 - dec 5 or 6.
Good luck finding people!

Hello,

during this season Barba Azul can not be reached by road. Chartering a cessna costs around 250US$/hour, and Trinidad-Barba Azul is ca 2 hours flying during the wet season, so the price would be ca 1000 US$.
