Guyana holidays are not for the faint hearted. Accommodation can be basic, roads unpaved and vehicles battered by the terrain. However, any well-prepared, adventurous visitor will be richly rewarded by this country's raw and untouched wilderness.
Guyana holidays with Abercrombie & Kent are the ideal way to get the most out of this rugged, yet beautiful country.
Guyana, 'Land of Many Waters', lies at a point where the Caribbean meets South America. It is about the same size as Great Britain and is the only country in South America where English is the official language. Jaguars still roam the forests, leatherback turtles nest on the beaches and giant river otters and arapaima are easily spotted in Guyana's many rivers. Not to mention the 800 or so bird species that hide in the forests of this wildlife-rich destination.
Beyond the wildlife, any Guyana holiday must take in the falls at Kaieteur, the protected forest at Iwokrama, the Amerindian tribes and the capital Georgetown, all forming part of Guyana's unique and distinctive appeal. Every Guyana holiday with A&K is an unforgettable experience.

Guest Testimonial
First experience with A&K. Intended to ask various travel companies for quotes but Vicky (Agnew) was so good with her suggestions that we did not seek alternative quotations the suggested itinerary was excellent and helped us decide on a balanced and interesting holiday.

A&K Myanmar Relief Fund
AKP's global reach and on-the-ground presence proved to be priceless assets when, in May 2008, Cyclone Nargis devastated Myanmar's Irrawaddy Delta. Our office and teams in Myanmar quickly gathered and delivered essential supplies to affected villages, raising more than $540,000 in contributions for emergency aid. The A&K Myanmar Relief Fund provides support for orphanages and other ongoing needs resulting from the tremendous devastation of Cyclone Nargis.
