3 independent reviews for Brazil holiday, Jaguar spotting & Amazon

We are happy to read that our travelers had a great wildlife vacation with even Jaguars hunting. On basis of our travelers reports, we are waiting for a more detailed report of our travelers to see if and where this particular private guide in the South may improve his skills. He works already several years. It can be also be that the expectations for wildlife after a superb stay in the North with lots of Jaguar observations was a bit disappointing, We like to comment as well that the South Pantanal is drier than other years and that some rivers and lakes are dried up or are extremely dry. This influences for sure the wildlife experience according to our local team in Sao Paulo. We therefore hope the rainy season will start on time. When you travel in South America and especially in very remote areas you may expect always some kind of surprise whatever that might be. That is part of the adventure and journey. When they arrived at the lodge in Porto Jofre the staff could at first not locate their booking but it was there and all was booked, the private boat trips, lodge, everything. Our team in Sao Paulo was in contact personally with the owner of the lodge for several days and all was taken care of together with the staff of the lodge and the local guide. We received the messages of the owner via whatsapp that everything was fine as it was booked. The rest of the travel was logistically seamless. It is a pity that only one incident in a remote area where it was very difficult communicating has made this impact. We hope the beautiful memories will remain. Creating a vacation is teamwork in many aspects of several teams, owners of lodges, local guides, specialized guide centers and by far not only the work of one operator.
