The Pantanal wetlands, stretching across central Brazil, are a paradise for wildlife enthusiasts and photographers. Unlike dense rainforests, the open landscapes here make animal viewing easy and rewarding. Our journey begins in Campo Grande, traveling through Aguapé Lodge’s grasslands where Giant Anteaters and Armadillos roam. We continue to Bonito for a spectacular encounter with Hyacinth Macaws before flying north to Cuiabá and onward to Porto Jofre — the heart of Jaguar country. For four full days, explore the river channels by boat, where sightings of Jaguars hunting along the banks are common. The adventure ends at South Wild Pantanal Lodge, offering an unforgettable evening with the elusive Ocelot. Expert guides, small groups, and prime locations make this Brazil wildlife tour the ultimate way to experience the Pantanal’s raw beauty and unmatched biodiversity.
