Pantanal Day at Passo do Lontra
Pantanal de Corumbá MS
The Rio do Peixe waterfalls activity is one of the most tradition in Bonito MS Brazil, because it was a pioneer in the area's ecotourism and because the lunch is often ranked as the best around.
It is a full day activity, so it is best for travelers who have plenty of time in town and truly like to walk trails and play in waterfalls.
The staff feeds animals who live in the woods nearby Água Viva Farm, so, when conditions allow, visitors can interact with macaws, toucans, monkeys or even a tapir. It just depends on the animals. When it all works out, the pictures turn out quite fun!
Rio means River in Brazilian Portuguese, while Peixe means Fish. Rio do Peixe translates directly to River of Fish or Fish's River. The name comes from the fact that one of the main rivers in the farm has tons of fish, though they are not the focus on this activity.
