Jungle & Indians Leave the capital Georgetown behind and set off into the dense jungle by 4WD. Your first base is the Iwokrama Field Station devoted to the preservation of the rainforest. Here you’ll search for the elusive jaguar, tapir, giant river otter and experience the magnificent forest from a canopy walkway – you can stay up there to enjoy a spectacular sunset. You’ll also learn about life in the forest from your local guide and when you stay with an Amerindian community at Surama. River Expedition Three days on the Burro Burro River, travelling by canoe is a great way to see some of the huge array of the wildlife and birdlife close up. Camp at night on the river bank, sleeping in a hammock under a mosquito net – and the stars. Hopefully you will catch fish to eat! Then continue on to the savannah lands where you can join vaqueros on horseback as they muster the cattle. Your adventure finishes back in the faded colonial city of Georgetown. Kaieteur Falls Extension 16 days ref. GY K Take a short flight to see these beautiful falls which drop 250m off the tablelands into a deep gorge. Fly on to an island resort set on the mighty Esequibo River for a day of rest and relaxation on the beach or gentle jungle walks. Days 1-12 As main itinerary. 13 Kaieteur Falls & river resort. 14 River beach resort. 1516 Return to Georgetown & fly to London. Price including extension from £2,948. Responsible Travel Your stay with the indigenous Surama community provides them with much-needed revenue. It enables them to be employed at home, rather than the having to travel elsewhere to find work mining or cutting timber. |
