Unlike the dense Amazon rainforest, the Pantanal is more open and flat, making wildlife easier to spot. Over 650 bird species, including hyacinth macaws, Toco Toucans, Greater Rhea, jabiru storks.
Jaguars (we saw Three!) We also saw Capybaras, giant river otters, caimans, tapirs, Coati, Howler and Capuchin Monkeys, Azara’s agouti, tamandua, Crab eating fox to name a few!

It’s More Extraordinary with Exodus

With over 50 years of experience, our incredible adventures span all seven continents and allow you to delve deeper—exploring not just the iconic sights but also the hidden corners known only to the locals, where no other tours go.
Our expert local guides are the secret behind every extraordinary adventure. But they’re not just tour guides. To our travelers, they’re captivating storytellers, helpful translators, fountains of knowledge, motivators and reservoirs of serotonin – who make each adventure a once-in-a-lifetime experience. They’re the people who take you into their family’s home for fresh lemonade after a day of cycling through rice paddies in Vietnam. The ones who tell you about the history behind Dubrovnik’s monuments before whisking you away to a hidden vineyard by the beach. The kind of guides who stay by your side, during the most challenging ascents in the Himalya. They’re with you every step of the way, enhancing every experience– which is why adventures are simply more extraordinary with Exodus.

Charlotte Graham Mont Blanc Hiking HighlightsThis was my first exodus trip and everything was catered for, our chalet Le Bediere was comfortable and our hosts Sandro and Vieletta were so accommodating and welcoming, they cooked delicious meals every evening and freshly baked cakes to welcome us home after our hikes which were so delish and gratefully received! Also happy to recommend good restaurants, spa locations and other ideas for days off activities. The chalet was clean and comfortable, a wee home from home. Our group of 7 got on great, we bonded during the hikes, chats and meals together, everyone was encouraging and supportive, many interesting chats were had along the ways. Some parts of each hike are challenging but our guide Mark set the pace just right and looked after the entire squad very well. Chamonix is busy and vibrant, there was a jazz festival on during our visit and lots of shops and restaurants and things to do. The chalet is perfectly placed to enjoy everything right on the doorstep, only good vibes noted.
