From Poconé, we take the Transpantaneira Park Road, a 32 km stretch of dirt road that takes us directly into the heart of the Pantanal. Here, we will enjoy a photographic safari with stops to observe and photograph the unique flora and fauna of this ecosystem while traveling above the water level. Upon arrival at the lodge, we will be welcomed with a refreshing drink and later take a guided introductory walk in the surroundings, where we will learn about conservation projects that support the region. The walk will take us to the Great Egret Lookout, a 12-meter observation tower. The day concludes with dinner and a night walk under the southern hemisphere’s starry sky, where we can enjoy the serenity of nature and observe the nocturnal wildlife of the Pantanal.

Lunch will be enjoyed in the jungle under the shade of the trees (*), and we can relax in hammocks for a “siesta.” We return to the lodge for afternoon tea, followed by a walk along the Howler Monkey Trail to the Howler Monkey Tower, our highest observation point at 25 meters, from where we will enjoy an impressive sunset. At night, we will take a nocturnal safari in search of Pantanal animals that become active at dusk.

Upon returning to the lodge, we will enjoy a comforting lunch before continuing with a walk along the Rondon Trail.

We will enjoy a lunch box with fruits and sandwiches prepared by the lodge’s kitchen to make the most of every moment of this exciting search. We return to the Jofre region around 17:00 and, aboard our safari vehicle, head back to the lodge for a delicious dinner and a restful night.
