    Planning & reference

    We love the raw, untamed beauty of Paraje Los Indios; it feels like stepping back in time. The sunsets here are sensational, painting the sky in fiery hues that reflect across the vast plains. It’s a place where you can truly disconnect and immerse yourself in nature's grandeur.

    Gate Times

    The park is generally open from 8 AM to 6 PM daily. We recommend checking the official park website or contacting local authorities for any seasonal adjustments or specific entry requirements, as permits are sometimes needed for certain areas or activities. Booking in advance is wise during peak seasons.

    Tipping

    Tipping is appreciated but not mandatory. For guides, we suggest around 10-15% of the tour cost. For camp staff, a small daily amount of $5-10 USD per guest is customary. Rangers do not typically expect tips, but a small token of appreciation for exceptional service is always welcome.

    Dress Code

    We advise neutral, earthy tones like khaki, olive green, and brown to blend in with the environment. Layers are key: a light long-sleeved shirt and trousers for sun and insect protection, a fleece or warm jacket for cooler mornings and evenings, and comfortable walking shoes. Avoid bright colours and white.

    Photography

    Photography is generally permitted, but always ask permission before photographing people. Be mindful of wildlife; maintain a respectful distance and avoid using flash, especially at night. Drone usage is strictly regulated and often requires special permits; we advise checking park regulations beforehand to avoid fines. The light in the early morning and late afternoon is magical for capturing the landscape.

    Etiquette

    We always emphasize keeping noise levels to a minimum to avoid disturbing wildlife and other visitors. Stay within designated areas and always follow your guide's instructions. Never feed or approach wild animals. In camp, respect quiet hours and the privacy of other guests.
