RUPUNUNI SAVANNAH, GUYANA | Staying at Wichabai Ranch

Lethem - Rupununi Savannah, Guyana!
In the South of Guyana is the beautiful Rupununi Savannah. It's an area full of incredible wildlife, a strong community with a proud culture and plus it's an incredible place for adventure lovers. In this Guyana travel vlog I fly from Georgetown to Lethem before visiting Wichabai Ranch where I stay for a few days.
If you're looking for information on what the countryside of Guyana is like and what to do in the Rupununi Savannah, this is the Guyana travel vlog for you. I even have lasso lessons from the Rupununi Rodeo Champion 2022!

Heaven on Earth. Very peaceful and beautiful. Guyana is beautiful.

[@AlexOuthwaite]

Yes it is

[@couriehines1253]

Wow Guyana is beautiful saludo Desde Jamaica 🇯🇲

[@cancerking9416]

I lived in Guyana most of my life and have never been to Lethem . As a matter of fact I’ve never been to a lot of places in Guyana. I’m glad you’re having a great time.

[@materockk1579]

Why ? Is it safe place ?

[@joaovitorcoelho4786]

Amazing video! I was born and raised in Boa Vista, Brazil which is less than 2h away from Lethem by car (I’ve been there many times) and the region I’m from shares the Rupununi savanna with Guyana! It’s a truly unique part of the world, and many South Americans don’t even know it. I live in the United States now, but I still miss how beautiful our savannas are. Thank you for sharing these images of the Rupununi to the world and a salute to our Guyanese friends!

[@AlexOuthwaite]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it. It really is a beautiful region and with so few tourists. I hope you will subscribe I have many more Guyana videos.

[@nicolemunroe959]

Lethem is very diverse now,it’s no longer populated by just the indigenous people,lots of people from Georgetown and elsewhere are settling there,thanks for showing the world what a beautiful place my/our wonderful Guyana is.

[@typhanymatthews]

When I take my trip, I want to experience it like this ❤️ 😍 . Out and free in nature. Rodeo, horseback riding, bike rides and mountains. Also the fact that you do hands on experience learning from their culture is wonderful.

[@AlexOuthwaite]

I love learning from other people. One of the joys of life is learning other peoples cultures and their skills and knowledge.

[@fral-homosexualrebel9888]

Hopefully soon you can get to know the border towns between Guyana and Venezuela such as: Baramita, Eteringbang and Arau village. In those places there is a lot of interculturality between Guyanese miners from the coast, Amerindians, Venezuelans and Brazilians who live there. ✌

Great Video I had the opportunity to visit the south Rupununi 4/2022 went as far as Macushi village. Had a great experience. Drove from Georgetown thru the trail to Lethem, even spent 2 days in Brazil. Now I'm back home, Florida USA. Can't wait to plan my next trip, Leroy and Kayla was great. Saw they were part of your experience.

[@mikes3827]

Hi Alex, GREAT job, as you also have a very genuine, down-to-earth way about you, which I think the locals quickly picked up on (the end shot of the locals and you having a good laugh is a good indicator) with you. Anyway, I work for a WTE company, and we're going to be part of a sizable industrial project in the Berbice River region of Guyana, and of course I want to watch various videos of people--especially foreigners like myself--to take in the local Guyanese culture. And while I'm not the biggest fan of humidity (understatement lol), I figure the fact that the country is LOADED with nature, bodies of water to enjoy, and just plenty of outdoor pursuits to be had, that I believe I will thoroughly enjoy my time there (new facility, so lots of mandatory business time), by getting out and enjoying Guyana's countryside. Much thanks, Brit ;)

[@AlexOuthwaite]

Thanks so much for watching and your kind comments. I really enjoyed my time in Guyana. I've still got a few videos to come!

[@mikes3827]

@@AlexOuthwaite Don't worry, this isn't an ongoing Q&A, but curious if your being in Guyana felt like you were in and/or surrounded by a frontier-type of environment? I ask because despite Georgetown, when my being can sense I'm surrounded by nature, a soothing feeling comes over my body, and the stress seems to just melt away. Obviously hoping I experience that similar feeling as I know I'll be spending LOTS of time in that country.
