Travel along Guyana’s coastland from Georgetown, over the Demerara River to Parika. Enjoy an adventurous boat ride up the Mighty Essequibo river. Our first stop is at Fort Island to learn about our history and view what remains of Fort Zeelandia; a Dutch Fort built in the 18th Century. Further up the River we pass many islands, there are 365 Islands in the River.
At Bartica, the Essequibo meets the Mazaruni and Cayuni Rivers, we head up the Mazaruni River and pass the Mazaruni Prison, Aruwai Resort and a few Quarries.
Finally we enter the Rainforest to hike to the Waterfalls. Approximately 80% of Guyana is rainforest. After a short hike we come upon Baracara Falls and its the perfect cool down.
Then we head back down the river to Bartica for Lunch and visit the Golden Beach, its breezy and relaxing, you can walk along the beach and take pictures or swim in the river . As we head back to Parika the sunset along the Essequibo River is the perfect end to a wonderful day
