YANAVICO Expediciones de Naturaleza is a specialist tour operator based in Jujuy, Northwest Argentina (RNAV 18.304 – Res. 872/23). We design and lead high-quality, tailor-made experiences focused on the exploration, observation, interpretation, and photography of Argentina’s unique nature and biodiversity. Our work is guided by a strong commitment to conservation and a genuine respect for local cultures, following sustainable tourism principles.
The name YANAVICO derives from the local term for the Puna Ibis (Plegadis ridgwayi), a distinctive yet uncommon species of high Andean wetlands.
We offer one-day excursions and multi-day expeditions for nature enthusiasts, from casual travelers to experienced birders, photographers, and naturalists. Our experiences mainly focus on birding, wildlife observation, natural landscapes, and stargazing, across some of Argentina’s most remarkable ecosystems.
All tours are led by professional guides with extensive field experience, ensuring a high level of expertise, personalized attention, and truly memorable experiences. Most of our tours are private, flexible, and tailor-made, designed for small groups seeking a more immersive and exclusive experience.
As tailor-made itineraries require careful planning, we recommend booking in advance.
