About our Company

We formed our company in the early 90’s on the mighty Bio Bio River in Chile. The Bio Bio River helped launch our company and out of deep respect for this iconic river and the indigenous people living on its banks, we found the name for our adventure travel company. It feels like no coincidence to us that “Bio” in Spanish means life, as it is the life affirming, life enhancing nature of low-impact adventure travel that is our passion. Unfortunately, the Bio Bio River was eventually dammed but we didn’t want to leave! We traveled further south, into Patagonia, and found ourselves on the Futaleufu River in Chile. Again, for true river lovers, the Futaleufu was the jackpot! We started small, built lasting and solid relationships with the local people, and slowly established ourselves as one of the premiere and respected companies on the river.
