Discover more about PANTANAL JAGUAR SAFARIS

Pantanal Jaguar Safaris offers unparalleled access to the heart of the Pantanal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a biodiversity hotspot. Specializing in jaguar-focused expeditions, they guide travelers through the Northern Pantanal, particularly the Cuiabá River and the Meeting of the Waters State Park, renowned for the highest density of jaguars. The Pantanal is not just about jaguars; it's a haven for diverse wildlife. Expect to encounter giant otters, capybaras, caimans, tapirs, anacondas, and over 650 species of birds, including the iconic hyacinth macaw and jabiru stork. Knowledgeable, English-speaking naturalist guides lead tours by boat, jeep, canoe, and even horseback, ensuring an immersive and safe experience. The best time to visit for jaguar sightings is during the dry season (June to November) when water levels are lower, concentrating wildlife along the rivers. This makes it easier to spot jaguars hunting or resting along the Cuiabá River. Accommodation options range from comfortable eco-lodges and traditional fazendas (farms) to 'floating hotels' on the river. These lodges often offer a range of activities, including boat safaris, night safaris, ecological walks, and game drives. Pantanal Jaguar Safaris caters to both small groups and private tours, offering tailored itineraries to suit individual preferences. These tours often include extensions to other nearby attractions such as Chapada dos Guimarães. With a focus on responsible tourism, Pantanal Jaguar Safaris provides not only exceptional wildlife encounters but also contributes to the conservation of this unique ecosystem.
