Within the state of Mato Grosso do Sul in Brazil, the Pantanal is known as the world’s largest tropical wetland habitat, distinguished by its culture, nature, and cuisine. It is sculpted by the ebb and flow of the rainy and dry seasons, and the people who inhabit this unique ecosystem are shaped by these seasonal changes as well. The Pantaneiro cowboys are the torchbearers of tradition, protecting their way of life and also striving to find a balance between sustainability and the economic activity that supports farms and local communities. For travelers seeking a slow, immersive experience, the locally-owned homestays offer a unique opportunity to encounter the culture and heritage of the authentic Pantaneiro life.
