This itinerary is based on a sample flight from IAH to Montevideo, Uruguay using United and Copa Airlines which are airline partners to Montevideo. Our travel department will be glad to research the best schedule for your group to Montevideo.
Once you arrive to Montevideo, your group will be met by a fast track VIP service who will meet you as soon as you get off the plane and whisk you straight through immigrations. You will then be placed in the VIP Salon where you will relax as they secure your baggage. Once your bags have been collected they will escort you outside to your waiting van from Santa Clara who will transfer you 2 hours 15 min to the lodge.
After introductions and receiving your room assignments, you will have lunch and then proceed to a warm-up afternoon dove shoot on property.
These will be three full shooting days from Estancia Santa Clara involving six sessions, two sessions each for pigeons, perdiz and ducks.
A typical day depending on the species you hunt in the morning, will have you up for a full breakfast follow by a short drive to a productive field or lagoon for ducks, doves, pigeons or perdiz. There are 50, 000 on-property acres offering ten different duck lagoons/ponds, three sanctuary lakes offering refuse for the ducks. They also offer good volume dove/pigeon shooting on one their many feedlots and or roosts. The partridge shooting here at Santa Clara is the best in the country and their kennel of dogs are spot on.
After the morning shoot you will come back to the lodge for a full lunch, or if the weather cooperates, an asado out back with the fire pits ablaze. After lunch your group will proceed with an afternoon shoot on a different species for the day. We must stress that drive times are short so programs can be flexible depending on the needs of each groups.
Drinks at 7:00 and dinner at 8:00.
This will be one last morning hunt followed by your transfer back to MVD to meet your evening flight home.
Your group will arrive home this day.
