Food & land

Six peoples, one table

Eat from the land

Guyanese food carries Amerindian, African, Indian, Portuguese, Chinese, and European kitchens in one pot. On tour you eat what the land gives — cooked by the people who grew it.

Meals included

Every tour eats well

Every day trip includes meals — and not hotel food. Breakfast in Supenaam on the Pomeroon route, a long lunch at Adel’s on the river, food stops along the Essequibo. Eating is built into the day, not squeezed between stops.

Dietary restrictions and allergies are captured in your booking request, so the kitchens that cook for you can prepare before you arrive.
