Brazil
Wild hearts, and a country defined by joy.
From the emerald depths of the Amazon to the golden wetlands of the Pantanal and the open, savanna-like expanses of the Cerrado, Brazil is a land where nature writes in bold strokes. These three wildly different ecosystems hold some of the richest biodiversity on Earth, each offering its own rhythm, color, and unforgettable encounters.
In the Amazon, ancient rivers snake through a cathedral of trees alive with macaws, monkeys, and the rare pink river dolphin. The Pantanal, the largest tropical wetland in the world, is a paradise for spotting jaguars, giant otters, and flocks of roseate spoonbills against mirror-bright lagoons. Further south, the Cerrado’s vast grasslands hide giant anteaters, maned wolves, and a rare abundance of wildflowers. Together, they form a Brazil that is not just a destination, but a journey across worlds—each one calling you to rewild yourself.
