Useful Tips

If you have an extra day, consider exploring the Iwokrama Rainforest, home to a variety of wildlife and plant species. If you have less time, spend a day exploring the local markets and handicraft shops in the nearby town of Lethem. You can also save on transportation costs by renting a car for your trip. However, be prepared to drive on rough and unpaved roads, so make sure the rental car is suitable for the terrain.
