Three Week Brazil Ecotourism Tour
21 Days / 20 Nights
This 3-week Brazil Ecotourism Tour is for those who want to experience our finest natural destinations in the Atlantic and Amazon Rainforests, the Pantanal Wetlands and the Cerrado Bushlands. The scenery and wildlife amongst these natural wonders take you to four major ecosystems with jaguar, ocelot, anteater, otter, maned wolf, monkeys galore and abundant birdlife to encounter.
The REGUA Birding Lodge in the Atlantic Rainforest close to Rio de Janeiro has reforestation and conservation projects, including the reintroduction of the tapir to Rio state. The diverse habitat on the lower mountain slopes makes it a wonderful starting point, with sloth and potoo among the highlights.
The Pantanal Wetlands offer the finest wildlife viewing in South America, especially for avians but also for the large felines. The northern Pantanal has the Jaguarland hotspot, plus ocelot and much more. Savannah creatures such as giant anteater, armadillo and crab-eating fox can be found in the vegetation, while giant otter, caiman and tapir are found in the river systems. Hyacinth macaw, jabiru stork and huge flocks of parakeets can be seen in the skies.
Cristalino Lodge is an Amazon Wildlife specialist, with wildlife photography also a possibility. Toucans, macaws and many other colourful Amazon birds are observed here, with peccary, collared anteater and tayra possible mammal sightings. The lodge also has Amazon treefrogs, piranha and many types of monkeys helping to give it that true jungle feel.
The high bushlands of Chapada dos Guimaraes make a quick stopover before some nights at Santuario do Caraça, a beautiful religious sanctuary hidden in the hills. Here, the unique experience of maned wolf coming in to feed on the church steps is the undoubted highlight, but with tapir and abundant birdlife in the Cerrado.
Iguazu Falls and Yacutinga Lodge finish your time, with the rainforest lodge close to the most beautiful falls on the planet. The rainforest in the national parks is also full of wildlife, as well as having the falls themselves to amaze you...
There are also many options for changes to this tour, with more regular tourism possiblities should you wish to combine the ecotourism idea. We can also include more activities in the wilds, such as hiking and kayaking, and adapt the idea to concentrate more on birding perhaps.
Combines With: We can always add in even more destinations if you have the time!
Best Time to Visit: May through to October would usually be the best combination across these destinations and ecosystems, with the seasonal weather patterns working best in this period.
