Arrive to the CGB Cuiabá airport or meet at the hotel with our guide who will take you on a 1.5hr trip to the town of Poconé, where our journey begins with a true safari drive for 10, 36, 42 or 65 km on a dirt road with many bridges until a large region of flooding fields, along the valley of the Bento Gomes River (Dynamic Low) or until the dense forest region (Dynamic High), on the banks of the Claro or Pixaim river. Just the access to the lodges are already a true overland safari through varied environments where there are the habitat of the rich local wildlife among aquatic (Egrets, Storks, Cormorants) and forests (Toucans, Macaws) birds as well as many Capybaras and Caiman lying down after an active night. Accommodation at the Piuval, Pouso Alegre, Rio Claro or Mato Grosso lodges – comfortable accommodation which, originally, were a cattle-ranch – some more than others, but all of them maintained some traditional character. With the exception of Pouso Alegre, all accommodations offer a swimming pool for a rest, but you could chose to take a walk on one of the many trails in the surrounding of the lodge for you to experience first contact with nature and a gorgeous sunset on the Wetlands.

In the morning, we take another boat ride to a different direction, changing the environments and enrich the variety of wildlife seeing on this only water resource in a 35 km of diameter. Lunch and departure to an overland safari our other destination, changing the environment abruptly (gallery forest vs. flooding fields). Arrival in time to enjoy a brief walking or an overland- night safari.

An early morning rise to feel nature awaken We leave the lodge for a silent walk to a place with many termite hills – our best chance to see the incredible giant-anteater and many birds in chorus greeting the day. Return for breakfast, having the rest of the morning for an Overland safari (in the dry season) or (in the wet season), horse ride –the most versatile way to explore places that aren’t reached neither by feet, nor by a vehicle. Animals are so used to them that they don’t perceive the rider on its top, which makes a very good way to approach wildlife. This sightseeing includes a walk on some mound-hill for making it easier to photograph the Haycinth Macaws and many other birds that nest there, together with other mammals, such as primates, rodents and carnivores. After lunch and a brief siesta, departure on a journey of few (4 at Piuval or 18 at Pouso Alegre on the Dynamic Low or 0 if at the Dynamic High) to (in the wet season) do a boat ride along the lake or river, with possibility of seeing many aquatic birds such as the resident Jabiru storks or the migratory Spoonbills.In the dry season, we do Overland safari to a remote lake where a walking on the forest ando on a wooden walk-side take us troughout flooded fields and forests with a great view from the top of a canopy tower with a nice view of the floodplain. Caimans, Capybaras and, with luck, some Tapirs or Giant-river Otters can be seen on this tour. Return at dusk, having the car equipped with flashlights for observing the nocturnal fauna that includes Foxes, Raccoons, Deer and, with luck, some Ocelots or Jaguars.

In the morning there are some walks through the many mound-hills (portion of non-flooded land that congregate large number of mammals among many birds’ nests (LOW) or at the gallery forests (HIG). Lunch and transfer to the Chapada Tableland. Having left the Pantanal wetland, where the altitude is about 120 m of sea level, is climbed 700 m in only 200 km for observing a gorgeous sunset into a large panorama that includes the water spring of three very important rivers that form the Pantanal. Then, on to the pleasant town of Chapada dos Guimarães for dinner and overnight.
