Like the Okawango Delta in southern Africa, the Pantanal in Central South America is a paradise for wildlife and wildlife photographers. The landscapes are vast and the number of animals large and colorful. Dangerous animals are rare and so you can stroll the „pampas“ easily on foot. Those who have been here often come back. The Fazenda Barranco Alto on the river banks of the Rio Negro in the southern part of the flood plains is a Swiss/British run farm with the best guides who arrange walking safaries, boat trips, jeep and horse riding tours.
