Highlight of this tour

  • On the Mahaica River Tour, you’ll leave the bustling city of Georgetown and head less than an hour away to the peaceful Mahaica River. Once there, you’ll board a boat for a scenic river cruise through lush, green surroundings. Along the way, you’ll be immersed in nature, spotting a variety of bird species, including the Hoatzin, Guyana’s national bird, which nests near the riverbanks.

  • Even if you're not an avid birdwatcher, the tranquil atmosphere, fresh air, and dense canopy offer a relaxing escape. With a bit of luck, you may also catch glimpses of Giant River Otters, Howler Monkeys, and other riverine wildlife. After this peaceful and nature-filled experience, the boat returns to the docks, and you head back to Georgetown, refreshed from a serene retreat into Guyana’s natural beauty.
