A tour of Guyana takes you to remote rainforests and savannas to observe rare wildlife in a totally wild, untouched environment. The big draw is the rainforest and wildlife, but Guyana's mix of Afro-Caribbean, indigenous, and European roots and traditions creates a very interesting and unique cultural diversity as well. Guyana is accessed via Georgetown, but most opt to head to the jungle and stay in an eco-lodge for the ultimate Guyana rainforest experience. Visit Kaieteur Falls, the world’s highest free-falling waterfall. Kaieteur is a massive, thundering waterfall 100 meters wide, created as the Potaro River makes a sheer drop of 228 meters, almost five times the height of Niagara Falls.

Still largely unaltered by the influences of tourism, visitors have the opportunity to experience a destination that still seems untouched. Learn more about South America's hidden gem!

Rainforest Survival Challenge

For the truly adventurous, camp in the rainforest and learn how to build shelter, make fire, and find food on a day-long rainforest survival training course. Your indigenous guide will show you how to make fire with natural materials and teach you how to fish and hunt using traditional local methods. Make a “wabini”, an elevated platform, from where you can make a base to observe the wildlife and spend the night in your own shelter. Sound amazing? Check out our Guyana Jungle Survival trip!

The Rupununi Savanna surrounds the Kunuku Mountains and is set along the wide Rupununi River. As a result, this is an area of Guyana where wildlife abounds! Giant anteaters, huge snakes, harpy eagles, and jaguars all find refuge in this vast grassy landscape.

Adventure Life couldn’t have provided a better travel experience, from the start of planning through the entire tip itself. The agents were very helpful and quickly responsive to our questions and needs. We were well taken care of and the trip was smooth sailing, both literally and figuratively. The cruise line, the hotel, and the extra excursions that Adventure Life provided were superb and without flawsThe price was reasonable when we compared the planned trip to what was offered by others. We would highly recommend both Adventure Life and Emerald Cruise Line to anyone interested in an enjoyable, relaxing, and informative travel experience.
