Guyana: Adel’s Rainforest Resort: Discover a hidden paradise within the Pomeroon

December 8, 2019 – 11:44 am

 Dec 08, 2019  News – By Shikema Dey

Guyana is a tropical haven, filled with hidden gems in the nooks and crannies of the lush forested land. So when the busy city life gets too much; the noise, the crowds, the same old places, the familiar things, I would advise you to take a trip.

Head to the Charity wharf and board the speedboat. Sit and let the warm rays of the sun envelope you while splashes of the cool Pomeroon River hit your face.

Bask in the picturesque scenes as you glide across the water; how the greenery blends perfectly with the black tint of the river and the inviting smiles of the villagers who always raise their hands in a friendly wave. After 45 minutes, you’ll arrive.        Continue reading →

Guyana Adventures: Rupununi: Bob Barker and the Bull 

 – By Geoff Burrowes

My boss Louis Orella was an effortless cowboy. He was tall and slim, wore horn rimmed glasses and had an infectious laugh and a wicked sense of humour. His slim frame belied the strength that helped him wrestle longhorn cattle and perform strenuous ranch tasks. He was married to a lovely girl called Patsy, who with her sister Clare had lived next door to us in Brickdam, while at school in Georgetown. They lived seven miles away from the main ranch at Manari at an outstation of the main ranch and Louis managed both ranches from there.
