WHAT TO WEAR

 

Birds are very sensitive to colors like: white, red, yellow, pink and bright colors. For that reason, we suggest to bring khaki colors like green and brown. Remember that we will be in South Argentina where the climate is cold and windy, so you should bring warm clothes!

If you are a birdwatcher you should bring your binoculars. Your tour guide will have a scope for long distances. If you are a bird photographer, bring your camera.
