We planned to spend 2 days in the Guembe resort but at the end we prolonged to three days and skipped the Samaipata. This was our end of 3 weeks travelling around Bolivia and we wanted to rest before flying home. Why we loved the place: 1. interaction with animals. We were so close to parrots (all kinds, but we loved the huuge Aras), monkeys and butterflies like nowhere else. 2. butterflies. This all started with butterflies and they do great tours where they explain how the butterfly is born and how long they live.. and the species that have are amazing / butterfly bigger than my hand.. 3. pools. There are so many places to rest near water.. two main pools and several smaller ones plus natural ponds where we rented a kayak. 4. many activities for everyone> animals, mini golf, beer garden, a spot for kids to play 5. morning/evening walks. we stayed overnight and had the park and animals for ourselves. They open at 9:30 and close around 6pm. Ther service is nice, food okay, espresso small and strong enough :).

3 hours by bus from Santa Cruz to Samaipata on a bad road. We did not have time but we would have visited the Inca archeological ruins el fuerte, Cuevo and Amboro national parkt and wo wineries that can be visited. Also, visit the Samaipata Fort.

Jardin Botanico Santa Cruz Yesterday we visited the Botanical Garden, with the high hopes of catching a glimpse of a hero of mine - a Sloth! Unfortunately, the sneaky guy was nowhere to be found. Mind you, this park is 217 hectares of lush forest and trails. We only spent about 3 hours there and even though we sprayed ourselves twice (with citronella) the mosquitos were relentless. My fiancee was their victim, as she got quite a few bites. We did see plenty of birds and fishes, an alligator and a few turtles in the lagoon. Another turtle was roaming the park like a maniac and almost got me This place is definitely worth a visit if you're in town
