Pantanal, Brazil

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

The Pantanal is the world's largest tropical wetland, stretching across western Brazil into parts of Bolivia and Paraguay, covering an area of roughly 150,000–195,000 square kilometres. It is one of the planet's most biodiverse regions, home to jaguars, giant otters, capybaras, caimans, tapirs, and over 650 bird species. Unlike the dense Amazon rainforest, the Pantanal's open floodplains and rivers make wildlife incredibly easy to spot, making it one of the best destinations on Earth for wildlife watching. Travellers come here for guided safari-style boat and jeep tours, sport fishing, birdwatching, and horseback riding across its vast, seasonally flooded savannahs.

Pantanal – Land of the Jaguar: Self-Launched Wildlife Adventure

Skip the group tour premium and explore the world's largest tropical wetland on your own terms. This self-launched version of Exodus's Pantanal jaguar safari covers the same incredible northern Pantanal lodges — Hotel Baiazinha on the Paraguay River and the iconic Araras Lodge near Poconé — at a fraction of the cost. You'll still get motorboat jaguar safaris with a 90% sighting rate, jeep excursions, nocturnal wildlife walks and stunning birdwatching, all independently booked directly with the lodges. The Pantanal is one of the most accessible wildlife destinations in South America for self-launched travellers — both lodges accept direct bookings and include guided excursions in their room rates. Costs are approximate estimates per person.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Pantanal, Brazil yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Eat the strangest thing on the menu every single day for a week and document the regret."
