The Guyanas Explorer tour starts in Cayenne and ends in Boa Vista. The Guyanas Explorer is an explorer tour that takes 21 days taking you from Cayenne to Boa Vista and through other destinations in South America.

This is a
journey for those who want to see a fascinating part of South America that so
many travellers have never even heard of.
It visits three intriguing countries, with many similarities but
substantial differences as well as a little of northern Brazil. French Guiana, Suriname and Guyana all lie
along the Caribbean Coast as do the majority of their populations.

The cities of
Cayenne, Paramaribo and Georgetown are all an eclectic mix of Colonial French,
British and Dutch, Amerindians, Maroon (ex slave descendents and the
descendents of the indentured labourers from India, Indonesia and China). Add into this mix, the fact that, French
Guiana is still part of France and uses the Euro and has some of the best and most
unspoilt tropical rain-forests in the world and you have some idea of what this
remarkable area is like to travel through.

So if you
love exploring tropical river systems and forests, would like to visit the
European Space Centre, eat a fusion of Indian, Dutch and Caribbean food,
discover some of South America's most unique architecture or visit Amerindian
river settlements, then this is the trip for you. As an added bonus, we doubt
you will see any other tourists or travellers!

Local Payment The local payment is a group fund, paid separately from the trip price on the first day of the tour. It covers everything that the group does together on the ground. This is primarily hotel accommodation and campsite fees, meals whilst camping (but not while eating in restaurants), and included activities and puts money directly back to the local community. The local payment, or kitty system, is unique to overlanding tours and provides maximum flexibility and best value on the road - you can see exactly what is being paid for, you get everything at cost price, it keeps costs competitive by leveraging group expenses and saves on administrative costs. The fund is run by the tour guide, and any excess left over at the end is returned equally to the group. Local prices are estimated in USD when we print the brochure then reviewed monthly as local costs and exchange rates vary throughout the year. It's therefore important once you book your trip to check the website regularly and just before departure for any changes to the amount.
