Cockscomb Jaguar Sanctuary Day Trip

At 8 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Placencia and drive to the Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary.

We'll begin our tour by visiting its world-famous jaguar sanctuary, where we will learn about a principal feline conservation project in the Caribbean. This sanctuary houses over 200 jaguars in a vast jungle habitat.

After seeing the jaguars, we'll take a short walk through the reserve for a closer look at the scenery on the eastern slopes of the Maya Mountains. We will then have a picnic lunch in nature.

After lunch, we will continue walking through the Cockscomb rainforest until we reach one of its main waterfalls. You will have 30 minutes of free time to take a refreshing dip in the waterfall and enjoy the scenery.

Finally, we will return to the starting point of our walking route and take the highway back to Placencia, with a scheduled arrival at your hotel at 3:30 pm.
