Welcome

Hello and welcome!

This blog will be an effort to promote and document eco-tourism in Mabaruma, Region 1, Guyana.


Mabaruma is one of three sub-districts of Region 1, Guyana.

Guyana is a fascinating country with one of the highest levels of biodiversity in the world. 

In Mabaruma, there is a large population of Amerindian people who continue to live off of the land. People paddle in dugout canoes rather than drive cars, people grow their fruits and vegetables rather than buying them at the supermarket and people live their lives uninfluenced by the media and pop-culture.

Throughout the next 3 months this blog will document our exploration of eco-tourism options within Mabaruma as well as information useful to those traveling  or interested in traveling here.

Feel free to leave any questions about Mabaruma and/ or Guyana and we will contact you by email as soon as we can!
