Nowhere inspires more awe and wonder at the raw beauty of remote nature like the Amazon Basin of South America. Pioneered by Major Candido Rondon de Silva, explorations in this region of Brazil became the stuff of legend, as Rondon enabled the first telegraph line and subsequently the first road, to cross the Brazilian Amazon. He discovered numerous indigenous groups, named several major rivers, and is hailed by many Brazilians as one of the true heroes of Brazil’s native people and lands.

Our short extension to Acre is the perfect complement to our tour to Pousada PiraAçu, giving us an extra opportunity at finding Rondonia Bushbird, as well as a good number of low-density species restricted to the terra firme and bamboo forests of southwestern Amazonia.

What our clients say about us

Stephan Lorenz

The trip was excellent, and there is no praise too high for Stephan Lorenz!

Alexander Alvarado
PC, Brazil - Pantanal: Birds & Wildlife II 2026

Great local guides in Martin and Leo. There knowledge and relationship with Alex was fantastic. Alex was very good ensuring everyone got “eyes on.”

Robert Wilcox
JG & AS - Pantanal 2022

We really appreciated our trip. Our Rockjumper guide, Bobby Wilcox, and the local guides were awesome; always on the lookout for new birds and other animals, even on the long drives. The organization was flawless, the lodges were great and perfectly located. Our triplist and lifers goals were exceeded! The group was great and always well controlled by Bobby. Very well done! Our long sighting of a female jaguar was certainly the peak of this trip !!!

Robert Williams
JH, Brazil 2018

Rob Williams was helpful above and beyond the call by going out of his way to make it an enjoyable tour.

Bradley Davis
GB, Brazil - Manaus & Rio Negro 2026

Brad Davis is one of the very best birding guides with whom I have had the pleasure of birding. I told him that he was the Hank Aaron of birding guides; the only guide I've ever birded with who would deserve an even higher rating was Brian Finch in Kenya. Brad knows the ID of the birds, the vocalizations, the taxonomy, the binomials, and so forth. He also possesses vast knowledge of Brazil's plants and wildlife, beyond just birds, along with geography, culture, and so forth. On top of that, he speaks perfect Portuguese, as best I could tell (being a non-Portuguese speaker myself). Those are rare traits to find all in one guide! This was a very good trip indeed. As I am writing this, I am so tired from the long trip back home, that I am not in my best frame of mind, and have probably overlooked something that might be food for thought in this survey response. I would like to add that the boat portion of the trip was excellent. I was particularly impressed with "Junior" Moasir, who was the rep from the boating company aboard." He was personable, knew the birds and wildlife, and helped make that part of the trip fun and memorable. Oh, and the food was excellent throughout the trip! I don't need a member of the team to contact me regarding my feedback, but if someone does want to contact me, that is fine, also.
