Where the Caribbean meets South America on its North Atlantic coast, Guyana, Land of Many Waters, is home to Jaguars, Harpy Eagles, Giant Armadillo, and Arapaima, the largest freshwater fish in the world. More than 800 species of birds inhabit the virgin rainforests, the gallery forests and the tepui plateaus including Guianan Cock-of-the-Rock, Toco Toucans, and the endemic Blood-colored Woodpecker.. The only English-speaking country in South America is rich in nature and culture, a mix of Amerindian, East Indian, Caribbean and European, with a wonderful mélange of foods and customs combining them all.

Mass Audubon’s naturalist, Elissa Landre, toured the natural hotspots with Ron Allicock, our local guide, in 2007. Ron interned with MassAudubon in the summer of 2008 and is eager to share his knowledge and love of Guyana with our travelers.
