What is the difference between Madidi National Park and the Pampas tour?

Madidi National Park gives you this really dense, traditional Amazon rainforest feel, with a focus on flora and hiking, even if it can be a bit slower and more grounded. A Pampas tour, meanwhile, leans into open wetland savannahs, and you’ll usually move by boat so you can spot wildlife without the whole tree cover issue.

If you’re chasing high volumes of animals like pink dolphins, capybaras, monkeys, and anacondas, the Pampas usually wins hard because there’s less hiding in foliage. Madidi is more for travellers who want full jungle immersion and that thrill of hunting down elusive, well-camouflaged species, rather than just scanning for movement.
