Pomeroon River Day Tour
The Pomeroon in a single day
This is the trip for travellers who want to reach one of Guyana’s most beautiful river regions and be back the same evening. In one full day you cross the wide Essequibo, eat breakfast in a river town, photograph a colonial-era chimney, pass through the market town of Charity, and spend the heart of the afternoon on the Pomeroon itself — a river where boats take the place of cars and life happens on the water.
How the day flows
All times are approximate — river and road conditions shape the day, and exact timings are confirmed with your quote.
Meals
Breakfast and lunch are included — real local food, not a packed sandwich. Choose your breakfast from our favourite snackette in Supenaam; lunch is Adel’s signature farm-to-table experience. Tell us about any dietary needs or allergies when you request the tour and we will check what the meal providers can accommodate.
Day trip or overnight?
Both are genuinely good trips — they simply suit different schedules. The day tour is the right choice when your time in Guyana is tight: you see the river, eat the food, and sleep in your own bed that night. The overnight version suits travellers with a spare day who’d rather arrive slowly, stay at the riverside resort, and let the Pomeroon set the pace. Guests who do the day trip often tell us the hours at Adel’s were the highlight — the overnight simply gives you more of them.
What to bring
- Comfortable walking shoes
- Swimwear
