Araras Eco Lodge, Northern Pantanal

Almost 700 different species of birds. 260 types of fish. 80 mammals and 50 varieties of reptiles. If you’re an enthusiastic wildlife watcher, you need to visit the Pantanal.

For dedicated wildlife enthusiasts and committed twitchers – not to mention the creatures of the Pantanal - diversity is the spice of life. This vast, continuous wetland environment is the largest on the planet. It has an area of 150,000 sq km and takes in part of the Amazon Rainforest, the Caatinga, the Brazilian Savanah, the Atlantic Rainforest and Paraguayan Chaco. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Biosphere Reserve. And, most importantly, it’s home to wonders ranging from powerful jaguars to tiny frogs the size of your thumbnail. Giant anacondas and gaily painted parrots. Noisy primates and secretive sloths. Bizarre insects and exuberant flowers.

By staying at Araras Eco Lodge on your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Brazil you can be surrounded by it all. Make sure you take back up batteries for your camera.
