fauna. A number of beautiful historic towns
have well-preserved colonial houses and

Premier wildlife destination • Birdwatching &
jaguar spotting
A visit to the world’s largest wetland is a stunning
wildlife experience. The Pantanal is a mosaic of
lakes, rivers, savannas, seasonal streams and
forests supporting a great biological diversity.
Lazing capybaras, sun basking caimans, iguanas,
tapirs, giant anteaters, whooping howler
monkeys and over 650 bird species are all easier
to spot here due to the lack of dense vegetation.
There is a chance for a privileged view of the
elusive jaguar too. Stays in comfortable lodges
can be arranged, accessed via Campo Grande in
the south or Cuiabá in the north.
Rainforest sounds & sights • Jungle lodges &
river cruises
The world’s largest tropical rainforest covers
almost half of Brazil. Mighty yellow-brown
waters cut through thick jungle, home to a
spectacular biodiversity of flora and fauna. The
majority of wildlife is hidden in the canopy, but
common sightings include caimans, monkeys,
toucans and pink river dolphins. Explore from a
jungle lodge or on a river cruise from Manaus.
