    Excellent Experience
    Incredible and wonderful sight to see...I loved the fact that the tour was flexible and I could see whatever I wanted. Charro was amazing, answered all the countless questions and always responded very quickly. She’s the star! Christina was also very helpful arranging the payment after initial complications.

    A unique adventure with excellent support
    Things may not always go to plan in Guyana, but Wilderness Explorers are absolutely superb and will ensure that you have the best possible experience of the country. All the staff I met were friendly, helpful and thoroughly professional. And when the wildlife chooses to show itself it is spectacular.

    "Safe, Memorable, and Unique: Highly Recommend Wilderness Explorers for Guyana Adventures"
    Thanks so much for everything you did for us on our tour. Your care and attention to detail were really appreciated... Lots of people had told me that Guyana isn't a safe country to visit but I felt completely safe at all times with this tour. I loved meeting all the amazing tour guides both in Georgetown and in the lodges. I would definitely recommend Wilderness Explorers to anyone who wants to explore somewhere away from the usual tourist destinations.

    Just a very fun, informative, and engaging weekend
    I wanted to do this tour specifically to see as many birds as possible and I think we did just that! Besides all the birds, highlights include the unexpected things I saw like the river otters and the cool roosting bats and the roti breakfast after the boat ride was fantastic!!! Everything was so smoothly organized and simple. I knew all the details well in advance and communication was next level! Jessica and others in her department were so amazing to work with! They replied quickly and with tons of information, always meeting and exceeding my needs...Wonderful tours! The 3 tours I did were all unique and interesting and as my main goal was to see birds, that was achieved but I learned so much about the people and history of the country. Just a very fun, informative, and engaging weekend spent in a place I knew very little about. I feel like I know a lot more now about the flora, fauna, and people of Guyana. Well done!

    Unforgettable Kaieteur Falls Visit: Beautiful Views and Friendly Atmosphere
    It was great to learn how they got the name Kaieteur. It was amazing to see the beautiful waterfalls and the people were so friendly both the staff and the guests. The snacks could have been better. I was very impressed and excited. Everything was planned perfectly and well organized upon arrival at Ogle Airport. This was an amazing experience for myself and my uncle both.

    Seamless and Supportive Tour Experience with Helpful Staff
    No real low points for me, but would like to add a comment that if you have difficulty walking, it may not be feasible to do the tour through the park. An aerial view could be recommended. The tour was well organized with excellent coordination between transport from hotel to airport, airport staff, and tour guide staff. Everyone was friendly, polite and informative. I would recommend installing hand rails, or ropes for gripping to assist with climbing in the areas with incline. I would like to comment that Ms. Ross has been extremely helpful in assisting me with organizing this tour. She responded to my queries timely and communicated with me frequently with updates such as driver pick up details.

    Spectacular Falls and Impeccable Coordination
    The falls were spectacular, as expected. Our pilot was kind enough to do a flyby so that everyone on the plane could get a nice view from the air. Our tour guide at the falls was very knowledgeable and pointed out several carnivorous plants, a viper, and a rocket frog. He also shared information about the geology of the area. I was very pleased with the organization and coordination. Jessica went above and beyond to make sure we were able to see the falls during our brief time in Georgetown.

    Wonderful Experience with Friendly and Helpful Team
    Overall, it was a wonderful experience - everyone was friendly and helpful - tour guide, bus driver, and boat driver, and of course, the Wilderness Explorers reps - Shonnette, Jessica and Antoinette and all who helped to make this trip a success. Although the tour guide spoke about the Bartica history while we were travelling in the boat, the Bartica stop could have had a short tour of the place other than the esplanade - maybe a walk along the main street.

I booked this tour from abroad and emailed Ms. Jessica Ross for several days with questions and concerns and she took each and brought me to best answers even when I landed in Guyana she was kind and helped me through the process of getting to the airport and finding exactly where I needed to go.

    The whole thing was great but the highlights were the hosts, the pilori shop, and cooking the 7 curries. The tour was not as described by the brochure and so I was a bit disappointed that we didn't visit the spice factory, but I understand that it is due to COVID restrictions.
