WHY PANTANAL IS WORTH THE VISIT

Brazil’s marshy floodplains of Pantanal are one of the most biologically rich habitats on earth. Extending through not just Brazil but also past eastern Paraguay and Bolivia, this incredibly concentrated region is an absolute natural treasure and the ideal destination addition to your Brazil Vacation.

Home to a myriad of diverse plant and animal life, the nearly untouched Pantanal wetlands are a must-see not just for birders, marine biologists or the like, but for any traveler wanting to witness unmatched wildlife diversity. Within the forests of Pantanal, visitors will be able to spot rarely seen animals such as the giant river otter and marsh deer. These wetlands are also home to over 1,000 bird species, one of which is the extremely rare Hyacinthine macaw or Crowned Solitary eagle. Other unique but endangered species that reside within the lush Pantanal are the Maned wolf, South American Tapir, Yacare Caiman and Capybara.

Swimming the nutrient-rich waters of the Pantanal floodplains are more than 400 fish species. Classified as detritus-feeders, these fish primarily consume decomposing organic matter from dead plants and animals – a characteristic of floodplain-dwelling fish. Unique, they have adapted to the oxygen-depleted waters of the Pantanal.

Fascinating reptile creatures to roam the swampy Pantanal are the slithering yellow anaconda, the red-footed tortoise, the friendly green iguana and gold tegu. You also have an excellent opportunity to spot a variety of colorful butterflies, Capuchin monkeys, toucans, and the reserve’s most charismatic predator, the endangered jaguar.

The Pantanal is also a botanical paradise and is distinct in that it features a mixture of various plant communities from the Amazon region such as the dry chaco of Paraguay, tropical savanna and the arid woodlands of north-east Brazil.

Visit this Brazil natural wonder during your custom-made and price-guaranteed Pantanal vacation, made easy with the travel experts at Brazil for Less.

DONT JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT

Diane and Jim Anderson

Our accommodations turned out to be excellent throughout the trip. From hotels, to flight purchases and local tours, Gavin's insights gave us good advice and choices. Our questions were always promptly and thoroughly answered. This service was SO much better than buying a packaged tour! This service allowed us to really enjoy the sights and not worry about the logistics of getting here and there. We were provided with often exceptional guides for specified tours that always met or exceeded expectations. We had a good balance of tours on our own and those with larger groups. We always appreciated the flexibility and personal touch, AND all at a reasonable price.

THE PANTANAL ADVENTURE

Situated in Western Brazil and encompassing a mind-blowing 54,000 square miles (140,000 sq km), the wetland wildlife preserve of Pantanal is the country’s top wildlife tourism destination; a sanctuary for those interested in the varied and unique animal life habituating these dense forests.  

During the rainy season, almost 80% of the vast Pantanal reserve is flooded. This extraordinarily wet environment allows for biologically distinguished aquatic plant life to flourish - the varied and precious flora Pantanal is recognized for. With over 40 inches (100 -140 cm) of average annual rainfall creating the ideal conditions for these life forms to develop, it is no surprise the Pantanal is considered the largest and most varied wetland ecosystem on earth.

Hot and humid during the summer months, Brazil’s Pantanal reserve is home to some 400 fish species, 300 mammalian species, 1000 bird species, 480 reptile species and more than 9000 varied subspecies of invertebrate. Expectedly, Pantanal is a veritable Mecca for wildlife enthusiasts.

Take a boat ride of the Mutum River where you will be able to appreciate large and friendly otters, stingrays, as well as schools of fish. Various bird-life and small creatures can be observed at the legendary Chacorore Bay. License-permitting, do some fishing in the abundant waters of Pantanal Matogrossense National Park, the only sector of the reserve declared a national park.

Accompanying you on this trip of a lifetime, Brazil For Less offers the very best in guided tours, excursions and hotel accommodations, suited for all travel requirements and catering for every budget.
