Its currently pouring with warm rain, I’m deep in the rainforests of central Guyana. Conditions at the simple lodges are very comfortable and they inet connection too. Food is excellent given the remoteness but what is truly outstanding is the biodiversity. There are such good numbers of key indicator species such as red-throated caracaras and many toucans. The forest is a little more open too than that in the Amazonian basin of Ecuador or Peru. The guiding here is has been to an extremely high standard and they are all local guides. Fortunately English is the language of Guyana which really helps. I’m really looking forward to discovering the savannah and perhaps seeing giant anteaters, the contrast of that area is immense to the rainforest here. So will we sell Guyana holidays in the near future? Most definitely yes but it is a country for the more adventurous and keen naturalists or bird watcher. For the latter it is terrific.
