We had an absolutely wonderful vacation. Every area we went to had it's highlights, and were very different. We especially enjoyed the iguassu falls as our first taste of the vacation. Paraty was wonderfully relaxed. Ilhe grande was truly beautiful. Our 8 days in Rio gave us a chance to really understand the various areas in this very vibrant city.2.

So many highlights but the most memorable was arriving at Aymara Lodge, feeling very travel weary, looking up and seeing two hyacinth macaws in the tree, looking down at me!2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Plenty of bug spray, elasticated waists (food great!) and lots of memory cards and spare batteries for your camera!3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Well air flight is obviously a problem but, this aside, our choice of lodge and vacation definitely supported these.4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

We loved the Pantanal and seeing so many birds, jaguars and other mammals up close.2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Take mosquito repellent!3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Yes, mainly when we were in the Pantanal, although we also visited the Parque Des Aves in Iguazu, and we believe some of that entrance fee helps fund the saving, breeding and rehabilitating of Brazilian rainforest birds.4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?

It was a terrific vacation. Between Jardim - Amazon, Chapada, and Pentanal, we photographed more than 140 species of birds and 170 types of flowers, trees, fruits, and seeds. The local accommodation was excellent, as were the travel arrangements by air and car. The river jaguar excursion was a unique, thrilling experience. Rio was charming as ever.2.
