Wilderness Adventures – Farther Off the Beaten Path

Discover the Pantanal of Cáceres

We will take you far from the maddening crowds for a unique and personalized encounter with nature. You will have the opportunity to see the flora and fauna native to the Pantanal and the cerrado in one tour. We will travel by car or truck to fazendas (farms) far off the beaten track which only allow access to clients of Pantanal Ecoexplorer. These fazendas have been chosen for their remote locations, special ambiance, and variety of habitats. You will notice a distinct difference in the variety, abundance and ease of viewing of particular animals and plants as we explore these different environments. What was absent or rare in one environment may be common and easily viewable in another.

The Pantanal always offers a cornucopia of water birds such as the beautiful Capped Herons and Whistling Herons. The massive stork called the Jabiru or as Brazilians call it, the Tuiuiu, when stretched out to its full height is probably taller than you are. Here you will also find the largest macaw in the world, the Hyacinth Macaw, an endangered species clinging to survival. In the heat of the day witness scores of spectacled Caiman hauled out on the mud. Our guides will work with you to make sure you see and learn something about the identification and habits of the many interesting species you will see.

The Cerrado or scrub-land environment offers better opportunities for viewing such specialties as the maned wolf, giant anteater, and the beautiful Aplomado Falcon (extirpated and re-introduced in the U.S.) and a variety of Macaws.

If the elusive and reclusive jaguar is your preferred quarry come with us to the largest river of the Pantanal, The Paraguay River. We will travel to the remote Taiama Ecological Reserve which we think offers the best chance of spotting a jaguar when compared to any other location in Central or South America.

What makes these tours so special is that you will have these experiences of nature all to yourselves with the option of molding each day to pursue your particular interests.

The largest advantage we offer is our local expert guides. Generally your group (and only your group) will be paired with one guide for the entire trip. Our guides give you the freedom to spend more time in the field than just the explorations offered by the lodges, which tend to be repetitive, noisy, and crowded. Having your own personal guide allows you to go to remote locations where most tours do not go. This gives you the best experience and most personalized tour available.
