Getting there

Adventurix Advantage Members can have us book your flights to Argentina from the USA. We can book you directly into the Montevideo Airport (MVD), or create a custom itinerary to compliment your duck and Perdiz hunting.

American Airlines now offers direct flight into Montevideo, Uruguay (MVD) out of Miami, Florida. The Los Gauchos host will greet you at the airport and transfer you or your group in a private van to the Uruguay Duck Hunting Club. The drive is about 3.5 hours on paved national highway.

At El Sauce/Hotel you may shoot decoying ducks all day if you wish, or opt for a PM Perdiz option.

We use English-speaking guides and Labrador Retrievers for all duck hunts: only two hunters per blind—with no crowds or "party shooting".

The Los Gauchos/El Sauce duck hunting region is located near flooded rice fields close to the Brazilian border. The 200 square miles of wetlands surrounding our location are a wintering ground for hundreds of thousands of divers and puddle ducks. Uruguay duck hunts are as consistent as any destination in Argentina or Mexico, and these ducks have never seen duck decoys before. Perdiz are hunted in the afternoons as an option to ducks. The lesser Tinamou—named "Perdiz" in Latin America—is slightly larger than a bobwhite quail. These birds are distantly related to the ostrich, and stick their heads down in a similar way in order to hide from predators by blending in perfectly with the grass; they are so adept at this that they are capable of hiding in grass that is a thin as the rough of a golf course fairway.

The Los Gauchos Duck & Perdiz Hunt hosts hunters (and non-hunters) in a 5-star deluxe estancia. The estancia, Parque Oceanico Hotel, is located right on the Atlantic Ocean. This is a beach side resort. The estancia includes an indoor heated pool and Jacuzzi for post-hunt relaxation. A full service restaurant and bar provides outstanding meals including premium beef and fine Uruguayan wines. Rooms are double occupancy with single occupancy available if reserved. Rooms all contain private baths and many have views of the beach and Atlantic Ocean.
