Pantanal Wildlife: A Visitor's Guide to Brazil's Great Wetland (Bradt Travel Guide) (Bradt Travel Guides (Wildlife Guides)) Paperback – 15 Mar. 2010

I have just returned for a wonderful trip to the Pantanal in Brazil and took this book with me - it was a very useful and informative little book with lots of tips and good photos of all the wildlife you can expect to see. We stayed at 2 places mentioned in the book and found the information about them good and accurate. Another plus is that it is small and light enough to take with you without taking up too much precious luggage space.

Bought this book to use after booking a trip to the Pantanal and used it while on holiday there as it is not very heavy.Gives a good guide to the wildlife which is likely to be seen and has some nice photographs although some of them seem a little dark.The book also covers some of the accomodation available.One of the places we stayed seemed to have alteredsince the book was written which was slightly disappointing.As this seems to be the only guide book dedicated to the Pantanl Wildlife at the moment I would recommend it.

This succinct guide is a joy. It is beautifully illustrated and packed full of really useful information. Ahead of visiting the Pantanal it was invaluable in terms of planning our schedule and considering where and when to visit and what we would be likely to see. It doesn't just cover birds, it covers everything and this was really helpful and added greatly to our trip. It was great pouring through this book time and time again ahead of our visit, just whetting the appetite for what was to come and while out in Brazil it was a great reminder of where we were and what specific wildlife we should be looking out for. This is a great little guide and an essential purchase for anyone visiting the Pantanal which is such a fantastic place.

Bradt books never disappoint .....Attention to details is their forte. We used their guide to Namibia and it was so good an precise it was lie having the author with you on the trip.Beautiful pictures in this Pantanal guide too so looking forward to using it on our next tripp

Does exactly as the title says and describes the wildlife of the Pantanal and placing them in a particular area but not so clear as to where to holiday. Excellent read and superb photographs.

Well laid out and useful information at a good level for travelling eco-tourists.

We didn't find it very useful

A great book (my second copy) by a trusted author.
