The Pantanal is the world's largest freshwater floodplain, with an area of more than 200,000 km2, comparable in size with countries like Great Britain. Although the Pantanal also extends into Bolivia and Paraguay, over 70% of it is Brazilian territory. The Pantanal has been declared UNESCO World Nature Heritage site and named Pantanal National Park & Biosphere Reserve by the Brazilian government. Visitors to the Pantanal will appreciate the area's unique ecosystem which stands out for its extraordinary biodiversity and plentiful opportunities to observe wildlife. Spot native wildlife such as alligators, Capibaras, armadillos, jaguars and a wide variety of birds.
The extraordinary biodiversity of the Pantanal includes around 660 species of bird, 100 species of mammal, 160 species of reptile, 40 species of amphibian, over 260 species of fish and unknown numbers of insect species, among which were identified over a thousand different butterflies. The Pantanal is one of the last refuges for a large variety of mammals that were once found in abundance scattered throughout South America such as the jaguar, the puma, the ocelot, the manned wolf, the tapir, the anteater, the giant otter, the capybara and many others.
At the Pantanal adventure you will stay at a welcoming wetland camp where you will enjoy a comfortable room or dorm with delicious local meals and tons of activities to do while you are relaxing at camp. Head out on the river on a boat tour to fish for Piranha, float on an inner-tube or just enjoy bird watching as the river wildlife comes alive at sunset. Explore the swamps with an English-speaking guide to look for docile alligators and walk only a few meters away from them to take impressive photos. Go horseback riding or take a jeep safari to see more wildlife in this remote region of the country where nature prevails. After your visit to the Pantanal you will surely be impressed by this unique opportunity to see wildlife and participate in once-in-a-lifetime activities!
