Guyana is South America’s best-kept secret. Dense rainforest meets golden savannah, thundering waterfalls tumble into deep green valleys, and rivers wind through wild, untouched landscapes. Indigenous traditions live alongside colonial heritage, and wildlife roams free in one of the world’s last great wildernesses.
Few countries remain this untouched – we take you to places even seasoned travellers have yet to discover. Personally explored, carefully chosen, with a guide by your side who knows Guyana from firsthand experience.

Arrival in Georgetown
Touch down in the heart of South America’s best-kept secret – tropical warmth greets you from the first moment. Your guide meets you at the airport (approx. 1.5 hr drive to Georgetown). The rest of the day is yours: a stroll along the seawall, local street food, first impressions of the city.
Georgetown City Tour
Get to know Georgetown: the National Museum, National Park with resident manatees, lush Botanical Gardens with tropical birds, and bustling markets. Lunch by the seawall.
Kaieteur Falls
A short flight from Ogle Airport over endless rainforest to Kaieteur Falls – at 226 m, the world’s most powerful single-drop waterfall, four times the height of Niagara. Guided walk through the national park, viewing platform, return flight in the afternoon.
Essequibo River Tour
Boat tour on the Essequibo River – past small islands, old Dutch forts and the town of Bartica. Lunch stop with a swim at a river resort, on to Baracara Falls, return to Georgetown in the evening.
Into the Jungle: Iwokrama Rainforest
Drive south into the interior – past bauxite tracks, quiet villages and endless forest, with chances of wildlife sightings along the way. Arrival at Atta Lodge in the Iwokrama Rainforest Reserve, run by Indigenous guides. Optional: night walk.
Canopy Walk & River Adventure
Iwokrama Canopy Walkway – suspension bridges high above the rainforest, perfect for birdwatching. Afterwards, a boat trip on the Burro Burro River: giant otters, howler monkeys and colourful birds.
Return to Georgetown
Drive back to the coast. The evening is yours – time to unwind or take one last stroll through the city before heading home.
Departure
Transfer to Georgetown Airport. Guyana leaves a vivid picture: the roar of Kaieteur Falls, the silence of the rainforest, the warmth of its people.
