Where adventure meets conservation
Community-Run Eco-Lodge · North RupununiRewa Eco-Lodge sits at the confluence of the Rewa and Rupununi Rivers, deep in the rainforest of Region 9, Guyana. It is owned and run by the village of Rewa — a community of 361 Macushi, Patamona, Wapishana and Waiwai people who built the lodge in 2005 as a way to protect this corner of the Amazon and share it with travellers on the village's own terms.
Every Rewa trip is led by Indigenous guides who have walked these forests and fished these rivers all their lives — the kind of guides whose knowledge you cannot hire from a city.
Catch & Release
Hook the legendary arapaima — the world's largest scaled freshwater fish — alongside peacock bass and payara. All fishing is strictly catch-and-release so these giants stay in the river for the next generation.
Day & Night
Track jaguars, giant river otters, tapirs, giant anteaters and capybaras with guides who know every call. The Rewa region records over 800 bird species — including the harpy eagle, macaws and toucans.
Day & Multi-Day
From short forest walks to multi-day expeditions into country few visitors ever see — learning traditional plant uses, survival skills and the relationships that hold this ecosystem together.
Authentic
Share meals cooked with local ingredients and old recipes, learn traditional crafts, and spend time with the Macushi, Patamona, Wapishana and Waiwai families who call this region home.
Traditional thatched-roof cabins built with local materials — falling asleep to the sounds of the jungle, waking to the calls of exotic birds.

International flights into Cheddi Jagan International Airport (GEO).
A roughly 1.5-hour scenic charter flight from Georgetown to Annai or a nearby airstrip.
A short drive from the airstrip to the riverbank, where the Rewa team meets you.
