What to do in Southern Pantanal

The Southern Pantanal is home to a whole host of incredible creatures from families of capybaras to anacondas as thick as tree trunks and, when you look in the right place, jaguars. Enjoy boating or canoeing along rippling rivers and waterways, walking beside trees laden with orchids or cruising across the savannah in an open-top 4x4. Keep an eye out for the spectacular birdlife, including jabiru storks, toucans and the hyacinth macaw – the world’s largest parrot. The South is also famous for its cowboy culture, where you can join them on horseback rides and learn about their lore.
