Kandoo's view
Follow the roar of the falls. Embark on an adventure across the remote tepui plateau that towers over the indigenous settlement of Paruima. Deep in the Guyana highlands, this thrilling adventure climbs up through luscious rainforest onto the wide, expanse of highland savannah, stretching out to the torrenting Kamarang Falls. Sleeping in hammock camps and bathing in natural infinity pools, we traverse the savannah to the stunning drop of Uchi Falls, an untouched utopia known to few, before floating back downriver through pristine rainforest to the impassable Panacema Falls.
Nestled on the banks of the Kamarang river, Paruima is the only Arecuna settlement in Guyana and it's inhabitants are known for their unique basket weaving skills, wood skin canoes and traditional hunting techniques. During our time in the village, we will hear tales from the local linguists about life in the depths of the Amazon and learn basic skills essential for survival in such a secluded environment.
To offer this trip we have partnered with the very best local operator who provides support for almost all of the adventure companies working in Guyana. Their expertise and health and safety procedures are second to none so you are in the safest hands possible for your Tepui adventure.

Day 1
Welcome to Guyana
Today our driver will meet you upon arrival at Cheddi Jagan International Airport (GEO). Keep an eye out for them holding an orange KANDOO sign. Then you'll take a private transfer to our hotel where you will then have the rest of the day to relax or explore Georgetown.
- Transport: Private transfer

Day 2
Kaieteur Falls
This morning after breakfast we take to the skies, as we board a scenic flight over the dramatic landscape of Potaro Valley and the thundering Kaieteur Falls...there aren't many views more picturesque than this. Landing on a small airstrip nearby to the falls we have an hour or so to explore the area. Kaieteur creates it's own unique environment in which huge Tank Bromeliads house tiny Golden frogs, and the rarely seen Guianan Cock- of-the-Rock nests close by, flouting its brightly coloured plumage to lucky spectators.

- Meals included: Breakfast

Day 3
Flight to Paruima
This morning we board our small aircraft and take our flight to the interior. As we cruise over the vast expanse of pristine rainforest, the wilderness surrounding Paruima appears endless. Dipping down to our landing strip, the quaint colourful wooden houses of Kamarang, dotted amongst perfectly manicured gardens of a soft green hue, become visible. We have lunch in Kamarang then board our boat transfer to the indigenous community of Paruima. Paruima has a population of around 800 people and is often referred to as the "breadbasket of the Upper Mazaruni" due to it's fertile land. We are greeted by smiling, friendly locals and taken to our guesthouse where we will spend the night.

Day 4
Trek up to the Plateau
After an early breakfast, we head out on the first part of our trekking journey, ascending up onto the plateau of the magnificent Tepui which overlooks Paruima. This giant tabletop mountain has formed as the softer stone around it has eroded away to leave a large flat plateau standing proud over the surrounding hillside. The sheer cliffs that encircle it boast cascading waterfalls and an eclectic variety of wildlife. Our trek begins by climbing steeply to the top of the plateau, gaining around 2000ft, before following the relatively flat plateau to our camp for the night. As night falls and the jungle comes alive, we go exploring to see some of the unique critters, that call this area home.
- Hiking time: 7 - 8 hours
- Ascent: 600 m
- Accomodation: Hammock Camp
- Meals included: Breakfast / Lunch / Dinner
-
Day 5
Trek to Kamarang Falls
This morning we begin beneath the humid, canopy of the rainforest, the web of vines above us trailing their fingertips around the waxy trees, before emerging into the glorious heat of the highland savannah. On a clear day here our views span for miles, out to the fantastically flat plateaus of far off tepuis, adorned with rainbows that dance amidst the misty spray from their tumbling waterfalls. Upon arrival at our camp, close to the top of Kamarang Falls, we have the opportunity to enjoy a relaxing swim in the calm waters above the falls...our own natural infinity pool. We spend the rest of the evening setting up camp and soaking up the sights and sounds of the wilderness that immerses us.
- Hiking time: 6 - 7 hours
- Ascent: 105 m
- Accomodation: Hammock Camp
- Meals included: Breakfast / Lunch / Dinner
-
Day 6
Trek to Uchi Falls
Today's trek involves several river crossings and some sections of dense rainforest but is predominantly along the flat expanse of highland savannah that holds unique and often very localised ecosystems, providing habitats for extremely rare species such as the Tepui Goldenthroat and Anomaloglossus, a frog species endemic to the Guyana Shield. We weave our way through termite mounds where our guide demonstrates how the Arecuna catch these critters to create a protein packed delicacy. Tonight we will be staying in a simple hut with basic amenities not far from the dramatic drop of Uchi falls; the roar of the falls reverberating around the concave gorge below.
- Hiking time: 7 - 8 hours
- Accomodation: Hut
- Meals included: Breakfast / Lunch / Dinner

Day 7
Uchi Gorge - Paruima
Today we make our return journey to Paruima, starting by descending into the thundering cavern of Uchi Gorge - a paradisical secret, carved into the immaculate sandstone cliff. The path is steep as it winds down to the junction between the Kamarang and Uchi rivers. From here, we follow a small track through misty rainforest, the ground softening underfoot the closer we get to Uchi Falls. As the forest opens out, the falls crash down in front of us, a dramatic curtain of tumultuous water cascading down towards the mash up of rocks at it's base. After having time to marvel at this wonder we make the short return journey to the river junction where we hop aboard our inflatable rafts and head downstream to Paruima. The water levels here can really change the mood of the river and each journey is different, some big and bouncy, others a gentle float. At times the river becomes impassable and we portage our rafts around the banks instead - one of these sections being the stepped force of Paracema Falls. Arriving back at Paruima we greet our guesthouse owners and settle in to a relaxed evening.
- Transport: Boat (2 hours)
- Hiking time: 5 - 6 hours
- Accomodation: Guesthouse

Day 8
Return flight to Georgetown
This morning, after breakfast we wave goodbye to the kind hearted locals of Paruima and board our boat transfer to Kamarang. From Kamarang we take our flight to Georgetown. We cruise over the ocean of trees before touching down in Georgetown and making our way to our hotel. This afternoon/evening is free to explore the city or simply relax in the hotel.

Day 9
Georgetown city tour and river cruise
Today is a day of cultural immersion, as we explore the depths of Bourda Market, discovering exotic fruit and vegetables and seeing how the locals shop. A street food breakfast provides sustenance as we follow our guide through this tented carousel of chaos and colour. Our guide brings the market to life as they offer us tastes of the local produce and introduce us to the eclectic characters manning their stalls. We then delve into historical Georgetown before retreating into the hidden Backyard Cafe and bracing ourselves for an amazing local lunch, made by Chef Delven, from produce purchased in the market. Bellies full, we board a river cruise and take to the placid waters of the Demerara river, keeping our eyes peeled for the wide variety of shorebirds that feed on the mudflats lining the river. Then after a full day spent embracing the Guyanese way of life, we join together for a farewell dinner. This is the perfect opportunity to offer our thanks to our guide and reflect on the highlights of our trip.

Please note
You have selected a trip that is, in part, in remote areas. This adds to the sense of adventure however, due to the nature of the terrain and weather some elements of trip may have to be altered. If an activity is cancelled it will be replaced with an alternative activity that is more appropriate for the conditions. Advance notice will be given for any changes where possible, although at times changes may be made whilst the trip is in progress.
Details
Trip information
Difficulty
We have rated this trip as moderately challenging. If
you are used to multi-day hiking with a rucksack over uneven terrain then
this trip is well within your ability. Once on the plateau the trekking is relatively flat, however there is a bit of a climb to get up there on Day 4 and a steep descent to return back down on Day 7. You need to bear in mind that you have
selected a tour that is, in part, in very remote areas and the paths that
we will be using aren't frequently trodden. Expect to contend with muddy
sections, uneven ground on river beds and forest trails with roots and fallen
branches.
Your participation is part of the challenge of the trip and
you will find the more involved you are in all the activities, the more
rewarding the experience. Unlike some of our other tours, on this trip you will
be expected to carry your own equipment in your
rucksack each day, so make sure to pack light! As well as hiking, you will also be packing away
and putting up hammocks, assisting with cooking, loading and
unloading boats and fetching water. There are no porters, cooks or waiters on
this trip, you are part of the expedition and must do your share of the work. Although this makes the adventure more demanding, it also adds to the enormous
sense of satisfaction and achievement at the end of your journey.
If you have any questions about your suitability for this
trip or would like more specific information about what to expect, please do
not hesitate to contact us.
Food & drink
Whilst in Georgetown you can choose to eat at the hotel restaurant or at one of the street food stalls, the best of which can be found along the seafront. Try some of the local cuisine including; Metemgee, Channa and Sour, Eggballs or a Pinetart and wash it all down with a glass of rum.
Whilst in the rainforest, mealtimes will be part of expedition life and you will be expected to take part; you may be asked to fill up the water filter, maintain the fire, monitor the water as it boils and clean up your personal dishes. The guides will be carrying food for each day whilst trekking, this will include a main evening meal, noodles, oats, cookies, crackers,
snack bars, peanuts, canned tuna/sardines, coffee/tea etc. We would encourage you to bring some of your favourite snacks from home to add to this but the pack itself will provide all the energy you need for the day.
Water will be collected from local creeks and boiled in camp to provide safe drinking water. Whilst trekking, you will need to bring your own water filter or purification system so that you can refill your bottle at any point throughout the day.
Dietary requirements can be difficult to cater for due to the remoteness of the camps in Guyana; a vegetarian diet can easily be catered for, however vegan options can be harder to provide. If you have a strong allergy to specific foods such as nuts, this can also be difficult as we will be carrying and cooking all the food together and we can't guarantee a sterile environment in the camps. Please let us know of any dietary requirements as soon as possible and we will do all we can to cater to your needs.
Accommodation
On this trip we will be staying in hotel, hammock camp and
guesthouse accommodation. The hotel we use in Georgetown has a restaurant,
bar, wifi and is in a central location, close to downtown. Our hotel will
be booked on a B&B basis and you will be in twin rooms with en-suite
bathrooms.
Whilst trekking we will be sleeping in hammock camps each night. Hammock camps are very
much open air, each consisting of a thatched shelter under which
hammocks are strung up (earplugs for these nights are essential!). A kitchen area will also be set up which will include small camp chairs, a water station and fire. This will be where you eat your evening meals and socialise whilst at camp. The toilet situation whilst in our expedition camps is a case of "going wild" and our guides will usually designate an area in which to do this. You will need to bring some toilet roll with you, please ensure you dispose of this appropriately in the rubbish bags provided.
In Paruima, we will be staying in guesthouse accommodation. This is run by some of the friendly locals, booked on a full board basis and you
will stay in simple twin rooms with ensuite bathrooms.
Your guide
To offer this trip we have partnered with Wilderness Explorers, a local operator who provide support for almost all of the adventure companies working in Guyana. You will be supervised by their experienced, English speaking Guyanese guides.
Transport
Airport transfers in Georgetown will be in comfortable, private minibuses.
You will fly to the interior on a light aircraft and transportation once in the interior will consist of motorised dugout canoes and inflatable rafts.
Luggage
Main Bag Weight: 9kg
Domestic flights in Guyana operate a strict limit of 9kg for your main equipment bag on this trip. This is more than sufficient for your needs on the trek. Your bag will be weighed before you board your domestic flight to Paruima. Additional weight can be bought at a cost of GY$300 (US$2) per pound.
Please note: additional baggage weight is subject to availability and cannot be confirmed until the day of check-in by the airline. If the luggage exceeds the payload of the aircraft you are travelling on it may be removed and placed onto a later flight. Any excess luggage you wish to leave in Georgetown can be left in safe storage at the hotel.
Whilst trekking you will be carrying your own equipment in your rucksack each day, so ensure to pack light! To ensure you have enough space in your main bag please bring a rucksack that is 45-50 litres.
How do I get there?
You can fly into either Cheddi Jagan International Airport (GEO) or Eugene F.
Correia International Airport (OGL) on Day 1 of your trip.
From US
there are daily flights to Cheddi Jagan airport with American Airlines. They offer a daily service from
New York and on some days two flights from Miami. There is also a direct
nonstop service with United Airlines out of Houston.
From the UK, there is a
direct service with British Airways on a Monday and Thursday, which has a
short stopover at Saint Lucia. As there
are daily flights from the US, it is also possible to do a combination of British Airways and American
Airlines flights via New York or Miami. Both British Airways and Virgin also fly to
Barbados where it is possible to connect with InterCaribbean Airlines and Caribbean Airlines to Guyana.
As of June 2025, KLM will also be running a service to Guyana
on a Wednesday and Saturday. With KLM it is possible to connect from most
airports in the UK via Amsterdam.
Upon arrival at the airport, once you have exited the Arrivals area, keep an eye out for our driver holding a "KANDOO/Wilderness Explorers" sign.
It takes about 45 minutes to drive to our hotel from Cheddi Jagan (GEO),
and about 20 minutes from Eugene F.Correia (OGL).
Travelling Responsibly
Here at Kandoo, we like to support our guests to make their travel more sustainable. As of 2025, we are offsetting the carbon on all of our trips from arrival in destination to dropping you back off at the airport. As we don't include flight travel in our trips these aren't included in our offsetting calculations, so we are providing you with the calculator below for you to do this yourselves.
Pre-trek briefing
It is a requirement of joining any
of our trips that you attend a pre-trek briefing the evening before the trip
begins. This gives our guide team the opportunity to review the plans for the
trip with you, make sure you have all the right gear and answer any
questions you may have. The briefing in Georgetown is held the evening before
the trip begins and will be arranged by your guide upon arrival at your hotel.
Should you arrive on a late flight, you will have your briefing on the morning
of Day 2.
Budget & change
The currency in Guyana is the Guyanese Dollar (GYD). This is a closed currency so you will not be able to purchase these before you arrive. You will need to bring US Dollars with you to exchange in country. It is very important that US bills be new (no more than 10 years old), crisp and untorn. Our hotel in Georgetown will exchange money for you, simply let us know how much you plan to bring and they can have it ready for you on arrival, or alternatively, your guide can take you to one of the local Cambios in the city where you can exchange money. Please note that once you are out on your trek there won't be anywhere for you to exchange money so this must be done before leaving Georgetown. Traveller’s cheques and credit cards are also useless outside of Georgetown as you need a bank to use them and you will be at least 450kms from the nearest one in the jungle.
Depending on how many souvenirs you want to buy, we would suggest a recommended budget of US$300-350.
If you are relying on a credit or debit card for emergency funds, make sure you tell your card issuer that you will be using it abroad, or you may find that it won't work when you really need it.
Tips
Tipping customs vary all over the world and can be very confusing when travelling to a new country. Tipping is completely voluntary in Guyana, and at your discretion. The decision on how much to tip should be determined by how well the team serve you whilst you are on your trek. Tips should be made in Guyanese Dollars and we recommend allocating the equivalent of US$100-150 (~GY$20,900 - 31,600) per trekker for your tips.
Once you have collected all your tips together as a team, these can be given to the lead guide who will split them equally amongst the crew.
Formalities & health
Passport
All travellers will need a passport which will remain valid for at least 6 months longer than your expected visit. You will also need to present proof that you have a return ticket, and proof that you have sufficient money to support yourself during your stay in Guyana.
Each traveller is responsible for sorting out their own passport and visa requirements, and we cannot offer much assistance in this matter. If you do not yet have a passport, apply for one early, as they can take some time to arrive. If you already have a passport, double check when it expires.

Health
Malaria
Many of the areas you visit in Guyana's interior will have no malaria, however, we would recommend you plan to take anti-malarial medication as a precaution. All beds in the interior will have mosquito nets, and hammocks with specially fitted mosquito nets are provided. In addition to taking medication, we would recommend you take every precaution to prevent mosquito bites by wearing long-sleeved trousers and shirts at dusk and dawn when the mosquitos are active, and by using a DEET based mosquito repellent. Please discuss any medication queries with your doctor.

Clothing to bring
Tips whilst in the Amazon -
- When on trails we recommend that you cover up fully (long pants and long sleeves), use insect repellent and tuck pants into socks.

- Sun hat – preferably wide-brimmed for protection
- Sunglasses – high UV protection
UPPER BODY
- Long sleeved shirt (x 2) - Lightweight and long-sleeved. Ensure shirttails fit into your trousers well and do not always pull out, leaving a nice bit of skin for bugs to bite!

- Isotonic drink powder / energy drink powder to mix in with your water. This improves flavour and helps replace electrolytes
- Ear plugs, if you are a light sleeper
- Entertainment - for quiet evenings at camp
Photography:
To protect your cameras etc. it is a good idea to bring a water casing, particularly for your journey down the river at the end of your trek. Wrap them in plastic bags and only take them out when you are actually going to be using them.
