Puma Safari Patagonia

We are proud to bring this amazing opportunity to see Pumas in the Argentina wilderness on our small group Puma safari in Patagonia. This program has only just started and you will be one of the first visitors to an area where the Pumas are now seen on a regular basis by the local scientists. Because it is private land the number of visitors is strictly controlled, so you will not experience some of the crowds you find in the Pantanal, or parts of Chile. The cost of the trip is also very competetive given the exclusive nature of the experience. We can also easily add on extentions to other South American countries, such as Spectacled Bears, Anteaters and the Galapagos Islands.

Day 5

Puma Safari, Wildlife, Trekking & Landscapes

8:30 am departure to the Andean Condor lookout spot. Condors usually take off less than 100 meters from cliffs or ancient inactive volcanoes and usually fly over us. I consider it the best place to photograph the largest flying bird in the world. A unique view of the Pinturas River Canyon. We leave by vehicle and choose the best area to walk and observe Pumas.

Sunset on the banks of the Pinturas River, exploring on foot and observing Condor perches and species that inhabit the Cañadón, such as the largest owl in Patagonia, the Tucuquere.
