Great Company! The guides are all extremely competent and the gear top o the line!

Two of us just returned from a week with BBX on the Futuleufu. Fantastic! But you must know this is not the normal multi-day river trip. It's a tremendous base camp from which numerous activities are possible each and every day: rafting different segments of the FU is central on both easy and much more challenging water, but horseback riding, short and longer hikes (some spectacular), and flyfishing are all in order--with small groups ranging from two to twenty. The guides are tremendous and each brings both global experience (Zambesi, Peru, western US, Bhutan) and special skills (professional yoga instruction, two amazing successful professional musicians, etc). The camp itself is special: hot tubs, sauna, separate library, individual semi-isolated tents on rain-sheltered platforms, home-cooked meals on-site twice daily. To repeat, this is not the usual multi-day river trip with successive daily stops, but it is multiple days of remote outdoor activity, all with special people from a special spot on a great river and a couple of its tributaries. We're going planning to book another different trip with BBX and we're planning to return to BBX on the Fu next year

I have been on 2 trips with Bio Bio X and both times they exceeded my expectations. The Zambezi explorer was a magical journey where the animals and game drives almost out shined the world class whitewater. The accommodations and the food were fantastic and the guides were amazing. The bar was set pretty high with this trip so I had very high expectations for the patagonian multi sport camp on the Futaleufu river. The Fu turned out to be the best one week adventure I have ever experienced. My wife and 14 year old daughter were both thrilled with the accommodations and the daily activities were just too much fun. The rafting and horseback riding along with the duckying and mountain biking were great. The in house masseuse and hot tubs and sauna were just right after a day of fun adventuring. The morning yoga sessions are held on the most beautiful outdoor platform you can imagine. The river is incredibly beautiful and the guide are so good that even the big class 5 rapids feel fun and safe.The food and communal dining area are spectacular and the riverside bar is by far my favorite bar in south America. But the most impressive part of the trip is feeling of community and family that all the guides and staff exude toward each other and towards all of us. You can tell they all love being there and are genuinely happy that you are there with them. They also serve coffee in bed! Cheers BBX you are a class act and we will back next year and most likely many more to come.

My husband, Guy, and I traveled to Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia with Bio Bio Expeditions in October of 2018. Our experience with the adventure company was, in a word, extraordinary. The Safari Lodges Bio Bio contracts with are top notch in dining, room accommodations, service and photographic safaris. One of the highlights was spending a full day in Botswana's Chobe National Park. First we climbed aboard a boat and took a 2.5 hour tour of the Chobe River just upstream from the confluence with the Zambezi. We were struck by the richness of the fauna both in the river and along her banks. Hippos, crocodiles, monitor lizards, cape buffalo, antelope, and too many species of bird to count. We then climbed aboard a safari vehicle where we were treated to an awesome three hour overland look at the park's terrestrial residents. We literally saw herds and herds of elephants, a few giraffes, many zebras, lions, wildebeast, sable and impala. We even had the good fortune to spot a leopard lounging in the branches of a tree. We camped several nights along the mighty Zambezi, first canoeing her flat water, and then rafting her thrilling Class III - V rapids. What a rush! Guy and I truly cannot say enough good about Bio Bio Expeditions. Over the past twenty years, we have traveled to Chile, Peru, Ecuador, The Galapagos Islands and Tanzania with Bio Bio. Each trip was wonderfully staffed and extremely well orchestrated. We may never use another adventure travel company.

I booked a tour to Africa with this company and was shocked at the amazing quality of the experience. All of my expectations were greatly exceeded. We had a wonderful time, all accommodations were fabulous. Transportations between sites was seamless allowing me to just relax and enjoy the adventure. The value for what I paid was phenomenal. In addition, I was travelling in a time were COVID restrictions, requirements and plane cancellations were changing daily. Whenever I emailed Marc at Bio Bio regarding a new obstacle he was very prompt to respond and went out of his way to help smooth my travel arrangements even though this was not part of the companies responsibilities. To sum up my experience, the day after I returned from my trip I went on Bio Bio's website to see what other adventures they offered. Will definitely use them again.
