Guyana

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Guyana is a small English-speaking nation on the northeastern coast of South America, bordered by Venezuela, Brazil, and Suriname. It is renowned for its vast, largely untouched rainforest — covering roughly 80% of the country — which shelters extraordinary biodiversity including jaguars, giant river otters, harpy eagles, and hundreds of bird species. The country is home to the dramatic Kaieteur Falls, one of the world's most powerful waterfalls, as well as the ancient Pakaraima Mountains and sweeping savannahs of the Rupununi. Adventurous travellers are drawn here for eco-tourism, wildlife spotting, jungle trekking, and indigenous cultural experiences in one of South America's least-visited and most pristine natural destinations.

Self-Launched Rio to Manaus via the Guianas (62 Days)

A self-launched 62-day overland route from Rio de Janeiro north through Brazil's Atlantic rainforest, colonial gold towns and Afro-Brazilian Salvador, up the Amazon delta to Amapá, then across the Guianas (French Guiana, Suriname, Guyana) and back into the Brazilian Amazon to finish in Manaus. Built for long-haul backpackers comfortable with local buses, riverboats, minibuses and shared taxis. Oasis Overland's version costs about US$5,486 (~£4,300) plus a compulsory US$2,300 (~£1,800) local payment — roughly £6,100 total. Doing it yourself with hostel dorms, guesthouses, local transport and self-booked excursions lands at around £2,400–2,700. All figures are approximate and exclude international flights.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Guyana yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Find the most locally-hated tourist trap and go anyway, unironically, in a costume."
