Our Pantanal tours are designed to experience the abundance of wildlife the Pantanal has to offer. Visiting the best and remote wildlife locations in the largest wetland of the world. The home of iconic wildlife species such as the jaguar, tapir, giant anteater, southern tamandua, ocelot, hyacinth macaw, blue-and yellow macaw, giant river otter and many more species to enjoy.
