Pantanal
Wildlife Wetlands
The world's largest tropical wetland, ten times the size of the Everglades, where jaguars stalk riverbanks, hyacinth macaws wheel overhead, and caiman bask on every shore. The Pantanal is Brazil's answer to the African safari, with a density of visible wildlife that surpasses the Amazon.
We also reach Porto Jofre along the Transpantaneira for jaguars, arriving via Cuiabá (CGB) or Campo Grande (CGR).
