Our tour extension to the Apolo region north of La Paz is focused on looking for the recently described, enigmatic Inti Tanager and the recently rediscovered Palkachupa Cotinga, the latter thought to be extent for the past 98 years. We'll drive as far as Charazani the first day, birding nearby forest in the afternoon. From there we continue north to Apolo. Once there we'll have two full days of birding, one day to the south near Aten for the endangered Palkachupa Cotinga and a second day in the Machariapo Valley for the Inti Tanager. On the final day we typically depart very early for the drive south toward La Paz, as we want time to stop for some morning birding in the Apolo Yungas en route. We'll go as far as Charazani, where we'll spend the last night. The following morning we'll transfer to La Paz, which takes about 4 hours. We may do some birding en route as time permits. The tour ends in La Paz.
