The sprawling grasslands of Guyana cover the belly and some southern parts of the country, offering a dramatic change of scene from thick rainforests, the vast ocean and mountains of the north and deep south. There is ample for the eyes and the soul for the travellers. The flat pale yellow grasslands allow easy spotting of a range of animals, especially the anteaters. Unique avian species that like a combination of grasslands and canopies exist in the Rupununi, making it a birding hotspot. The ranching culture in the savannahs is starkly different from the Caribbean vibe of the north, with rodeo events headlining the region.

Guyana is known as the ‘land of many waters’ because of the numerous rivers that traverse long distances in the country, before finally spilling into the Atlantic Ocean in the north. The Essequibo, Demerara, Berbice and Corentyne are the most important ones, rising in the highlands or mountains of the country. The rivers and their tributaries offer a rich ecosystem for flora and fauna to survive along, offering travellers a 360 degree view of nature in the country.
