Local tips

The dry season (June-November) offers the best jaguar sighting opportunities due to concentrated wildlife along rivers.
Bring binoculars and a camera with a good zoom lens for optimal wildlife viewing and photography.
Pack light, breathable clothing, sunscreen, insect repellent, and a hat for protection from the sun.
Consider booking in advance, as tours during the high season sell out quickly.
Respect the environment and follow your guide's instructions to minimize disturbance to the wildlife.

Getting There

Car

Pantanal Jaguar Safaris is located in a remote area of the Pantanal. The most common starting point is Cuiabá. From Cuiabá, take the MT-251 to Chapada dos Guimarães, then continue towards Poconé. From Poconé, the journey continues along the Transpantaneira highway (MT-060), a dirt road stretching to Porto Jofre. The drive from Cuiabá to a lodge near Porto Jofre can take 6-7 hours, depending on road conditions. Consider that the road can be rough, especially during the rainy season. Costs: Hiring a private transfer from Cuiabá to a Pantanal lodge can range from R$500 to R$1500 (approximately $100 to $300 USD), depending on the vehicle and the distance. Some lodges include the transfer in their tour packages. Be aware that there may be tolls on the paved sections of the road.
Public Transport

While public transport to Porto Jofre is limited, buses run from Cuiabá to Poconé. From Poconé, hiring a private transfer or joining a tour group is necessary to reach Porto Jofre, as there is no public transportation on the Transpantaneira highway. Costs: The bus fare from Cuiabá to Poconé is approximately R$30-R$50 (approximately $6-$10 USD). The subsequent private transfer from Poconé to Porto Jofre can cost between R$400 and R$1000 (approximately $80-$200 USD).

Discover more about PANTANAL JAGUAR SAFARIS

Pantanal Jaguar Safaris offers immersive wildlife experiences in the northern Pantanal, specifically in the region of Porto Jofre, known as 'Jaguarland'. This area boasts the highest concentration of jaguars in the world, offering unparalleled opportunities to observe and photograph these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. The safaris primarily explore the Cuiabá River and its tributaries, including the Piquiri and Três Irmãos rivers, within the Encontro das Águas State Park. Expert guides lead boat trips, providing guests with comfortable platforms for observing jaguars along the riverbanks, as well as other wildlife such as giant otters, capybaras, caimans, and diverse bird species. While jaguar sightings are the main draw, the Pantanal's biodiversity offers a rich tapestry of wildlife encounters. The dry season, from June to November, is considered the best time to visit, as lower water levels concentrate wildlife along the rivers, increasing the chances of sightings. During this period, jaguars can be seen hunting caimans and capybaras along the exposed riverbanks. Beyond boat safaris, Pantanal Jaguar Safaris also offers land-based activities such as guided walks and night safaris, providing opportunities to spot nocturnal animals like tapirs, giant anteaters, and other elusive creatures. These tours often include stays at comfortable lodges and hotels, such as the Santa Rosa Pantanal Hotel and Piuval Lodge, offering convenient access to prime wildlife viewing areas. Pantanal Jaguar Safaris is committed to responsible tourism, ensuring that its activities contribute to the conservation of the Pantanal's unique ecosystem and support local communities.
