Brazil Wildlife Tours made for you

Track jaguars, explore remote wetlands and learn about Brazil’s ecosystems

Extraordinary Brazil wildlife tours, led by expert naturalist guides

Discover the endless rainforest canopy of the Amazon, the distinctive savanna landscape of the Cerrado and the wetlands and endemic species of the Pantanal (three of Brazil’s six major biomes). As well as the private reserve of Ibitipoca in the Atlantic forest of southern Brazil.

On your Brazil wildlife tour you will totally immerse yourself in nature. Explore by jeep, canoe and horseback. Travel on winding waterways to stay in remote jungle lodges that work in collaboration with NGOs. Take daytime and nighttime nature walks led by expert naturalists and learn about various ecosystems.

Experience the thrill of tracking wildlife on foot, spending a full day with the Jaguar habituation team in the Pantanal, looking for clues that point to the coming night’s activity. Or set out on a guided open-jeep safari in the Cerrado to spot the emblematic maned wolf.

We believe responsible tourism can be a powerful catalyst for change. This is why we handpick exceptional luxury lodges that share our commitment to animal welfare and the environment, in line with our Positive Impact Principles.

Depending on the property and activities selected, you can relax knowing that your journey will support causes connected to wildlife conservation and local communities. Contact us to start planning the first steps of your journey.

When to visit

Brazil’s summer is from December to March, and the country experiences winter from June to September. It can get very hot and humid during the summer, making the slightly cooler shoulder seasons in spring and autumn great for travelling. It’s possible to visit the Amazon year round – it’s a tropical rainforest so it’s hot and humid all year – but the best and driest months are July to October.

Wildlife encounters

June–October

Iguassu Falls

Year round
