Our Pantanal tour packages are quoted all inclusive and are 'put together' or designed for individual clients or groups as packages according to their preferences, and often include air - both commercial and 'air taxi' when needed, airport transfers, special day tours, accomodations, and qualified guides. These 'packages' are often combined with visits to other parts of Brazil, often highly discounted to Andetur club members and clients.
