Pantanal Holidays


south & central america
The Pantanal is the world’s largest tropical wetland, covering over 70,000 square miles. Due to its wide open spaces, it's considered to be one of the best places for wildlife spotting and birdwatching in Brazil.

The seasonal flooding of these huge wetlands provide a rich environment, home to an astonishing array of fauna, including caiman, capybaras, brightly coloured macaws and even jaguars.

The dry season from April to September brings pleasant temperatures and the retreating floodwaters can allow for greater wildlife viewing. Part national park, part UNESCO World Heritage Site, Pantanal holidays are a wildlife enthusiasts dream.

Trailfinders offers a range of Pantanal holidays and our expert travel consultants are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand travel experience. Whether you want to explore the Pantanal on a private tour, multi centre holiday or a sociable guided small group adventure tour – they are the perfect people to ask.
