Trip Notes:

  • Note: Passenger/s traveling on internal flights in Guyana are allowed a free baggage allowance of 20lbs/9.1KG exceeding this weight passenger/s will incur a cost of GY$150.00 (price subject to change) equivalent to US$1 per pound. Please note that additional baggage allowance is subject to availability and cannot be confirmed until day/time of check-in by the airline.  We can book excess weight on your behalf but it is subject to being within the payload of the aircraft and at the discretion of the airline. Contact us for more information.
  • Optional Add-on to Orinduik Falls Day 2:  Add-one to Orinduik Falls:  Upgrade to a Kaieteur and Orinduik Flight is possible subject to availability of that flight combination being operated on the day.  This will only likely be confirmed in the week prior to arrival and logistically best to be paid locally.  The Orinduik Falls is where the Ireng River thunders over steps and terraces of solid jasper, a semi-precious stone.  With a backdrop of the rolling grass-covered hills of the Pakaraima Mountains, this is truly one of the most beautiful locations in Guyana’s hinterland. Its name is derived from the Amerindian (Patamona) word, Orin, which is the name of an aquatic plant found in theses falls.  The Ireng River forms the border between Brazil and Guyana.  In contrast to Kaieteur, Orinduik is ideally suited for swimming and you will find natural Jacuzzi’s as the falls tumble down the steps of Jasper. 

 

  • Please be advised all customers must provide us with body weights of passengers booked to travel on tour to Guyana for all internal flights. Failure to provide us with this information or the incorrect information can cause delays to flights and inconvenience to other passengers and in some cases either passengers and/or luggage being taken off the flight.  To ensure a holiday that is enjoyable and hassle free, it is imperative that passengers provide us with this information.  We appreciate some people are sensitive about providing their body weights, but all customers and their baggage are weighed at check-in.  This is procedure by the airline so as to ensure that the weight of the load is within the payload limit for the aircraft, and neither they nor our local operator Wilderness Explorers will compromise on safety.  All passengers are subject to removal of themselves or luggage from the flight if over the weight they provided and/or over the baggage allowance.  Passengers are advised to provide a body weight with clothing similar to that which they would expect to travel in on the flight.  Wilderness Explorers cannot be held responsible for any passenger denied boarding or luggage not transported if they are over the weight provided.  Weights supplied are provided to the airline in advance to ensure the flight is within the allowable payload. Please be advised of internal flights free baggage allowance of 20 lbs per person.

 

  • PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT DUE TO THE NATURE OF THE TERRAIN, WEATHER, ROAD CONDITIONS, RIVER CONDITIONS AND OTHER ELEMENTS. BEYOND OUR CONTROL SOME PARTS OF THE TOUR MAY HAVE TO BE CHANGED OR CANCELLED DUE TO THE CONDITIONS.  IF ANY ACTIVITY IS CANCELLED OR CHANGED IT WILL BE REPLACED WITH AN ALTERNATIVE ACTIVIY THAT IS MORE APPROPRIATE FOR THE CONDITIONS AT THE TIME.   ADVANCE NOTICE WILL BE GIVEN FOR ANY CHANGES WHERE POSSIBLE, ALTHOUGH AT TIMES CHANGES MAY BE MADE WHILST THE TOUR IS IN PROGRESS.

 

  • With any trip involving wildlife it is impossible to guarantee a sighting, but each trip is designed around know habitats.  Our staff will make every effort to ensure a sighting, but cannot be held responsible if no sighting is made due to the wildlife itself, weather, or any other elements beyond our control
