Holiday Rating:

A unique experience.

We visited The Pantanal in Brazil and it was a wonderful wildlife experience. The area is just teeming with tropical birds and a large variety of mammals.

Hi Kathryn. I've not yet managed to get to the Pantanal myself, but I'm so pleased you loved it. It always gets good reviews from everyone we send. Best wishes, Amanda

Magnificent!

Tribes was the only company I could find that knew Brazil thoroughly, and would book a tailor made holiday for us. We live in the US and after one email from Guy Marks I knew there would be issue working with a company out of the country. I research things quite thoroughly and knew where we wanted to go. I just needed someone to help us get there. Guy Marks made it clear that he knew where we were interested in going, but he also knew the best ...

Tribes was the only company I could find that knew Brazil thoroughly, and would book a tailor made holiday for us. We live in the US and after one email from Guy Marks I knew there would be issue working with a company out of the country. I research things quite thoroughly and knew where we wanted to go. I just needed someone to help us get there. Guy Marks made it clear that he knew where we were interested in going, but he also knew the best times to go and while we thought we had all the time in the world to plan a trip for the following year - one of the places we wanted to stay at was already nearly sold out. As a matter of fact, there was just one weekend left if we wanted to visit it in 2014. Here we thought we were way ahead of the game! Guy booked us immediately into the Southwild Flotel in the Pantanal. And then we booked everything else around it - Rio, the amazon, Iguazu Falls, and Isle de grande. We had a year to get ready and a year of outstanding communication from Guy Marks with Tribes. We just returned last week, from a vacation that far exceeded all expectations. There was not a single company I contacted who could put this trip together for us. I contacted 5 or 6, some who did not even know what the Southwild Flotel was! When I first found Tribes on line, I thought it sounded quite good. after the first email with Guy I knew we were going to work together. It was just so clear that he knew the country and knew how to get us where we wanted to go. Wherever we went, people in Brazil told us "you're seeing more of my country than I've ever seen!" That would not have happened without Tribes. Everything was perfectly communicated to us ahead of time, well organized, and we were absolutely thrilled with our guides and our transportation and our accommodations. We have thousands of memories, all wonderful.

We had a tour guide in Southwild Flotel by the name of KiKi. He was superb.
