Pantanal	Pantanal and Bonito Questions Posted: Sat June 18, 2005 05:17 PM UTC I am planning on visiting the Pantanal and Bonito in August and have a few questions. Many of the pantanal tours advertise horseback rides as part of the tour. I don't really like horses and I exceed the weight limit for most horses, so I don't think that's an option for me. If I can't ride the horses, will there be other options on the tour (boat ride, hike, etc.) while the rest of the group is on horses, or will I be stuck at the camp/pousada/fazenda while they are out? I noticed that many of the tours in Bonito require a wetsuit. I'm worried that they may not have one large enough to fit me, so would like to find options that wouldn't require me to wear one. How cold is the water in August? Are there tours (hikes, rafting, snorkeling) that do not require a wetsuit? Thanks for your help Report Advertising or Inappropriate Posting	smartlass	No Replies yet.

Pantanal and Bonito Questions

I am planning on visiting the Pantanal and Bonito in August and have a few questions.

Many of the pantanal tours advertise horseback rides as part of the tour. I don't really like horses and I exceed the weight limit for most horses, so I don't think that's an option for me. If I can't ride the horses, will there be other options on the tour (boat ride, hike, etc.) while the rest of the group is on horses, or will I be stuck at the camp/pousada/fazenda while they are out?
