Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic red sandstone cliffs of Chapada dos Guimarães shortly after takeoff and better perspectives of the meandering river systems near Ji-Paraná.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🏔️

Chapada dos Guimarães

Stunning red rock escarpments and plateau edges visible northeast of Cuiabá during the initial climb.

🌲

Serra Azul State Park

Rugged, forested terrain that stands out against the surrounding agricultural plains.

🛶

Guaporé River Basin

Remote river tributaries winding through dense vegetation as you approach the Rondônia border.

🌊

Rio Machado

The major waterway of Ji-Paraná, offering beautiful reflections and bridge views during the final descent.

Sit on the right side for the best chance to see the Chapada dos Guimarães cliffs. During late afternoon flights, this side is shaded and offers excellent 'Golden Hour' photography of the Amazon canopy.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🐊

Northern Pantanal Fringe

The northernmost edges of the world's largest tropical wetland, visible as the flight leaves the Cuiabá basin.

🚜

Agricultural Mosaics

Massive geometric patterns of soybean and corn plantations that define the Mato Grosso economy.

🌳

Amazon Transition Zone

The visible shift from the Cerrado savanna to the denser, darker green of the southern Amazon rainforest.

🛣️

BR-364 Corridor

The primary logistics artery of the region, snaking through the landscape towards the Rondônia border.

On afternoon flights, the sun will be on the left side, which can cause significant glare and heat; choose this side for morning flights to get the best lighting on the landscape below.
