  • 14 years ago, I visited Guyana for the first time! The land, The People, The culture, The fish and The wildlife have literally made me fall in love with the endless challenges and opportunities of Guyana!!!!
    I'd like to personally thank everybody at Rewa Eco Lodge for the amazing hospitality and hard work!!! This was a trip I will remember for the rest of my life!!!! www.rewaecolod...
    Also, I'd like to extend a huge word of gratitude to the GTA (Guyana Tourism Authority) Wilderness Explorers ( wilderness-exp...) and Kenneth Shivdyal!!! Kenneth was with us from the moment we landed in Georgetown until we flew out of Georgetown 17 days later!!!

    There’s nobody I’ve ever seen do a better job of promoting his city in Georgetown, then the man that was leading you through that market. What a good job.

    I am so happy to see this video, My father is Guyanese and hasn't been back since immigrating to the states. When my grandfather was still alive he'd go back every year for domino tournaments and would always say he'd bring me when I got older. This vid inspired me to go visit my family's country one day.

    Dear Robert-Thank you so much for taking us all to Guyana! We appreciate all the hard work you, your family, and Austin put in to your channel and our family has enjoyed watching your channel for years. You always strive to keep your channel clean of any profanity which I have to quote a favorite pastor and friend here that says: "profanity is just a puny mind trying to express itself." On that note, your friend's t-shirt at the beginning of this video caught my ten year old's eyes...Please take note of that because like us, there are lots of families with children who are watching along with dad and mom. Grateful again for you all!

    I got hooked in my back once. Ironic thing was on the way to the hospital just about got in to a car accident, the sudden jar knocked it out. Also got hooked in my finger. My two year old son, who is dead now, helped me get it out. Enjoy the rest of your trip and stay safe. I seen the video of Sarah and the girls along with Kelly getting toads. So you both got injured. You with the hook and Sarah with the prong on her face. Love and God Bless.

You've always said you make the most from even the smallest opportunities you are given, and the bigger most enjoyable ones will follow. I can't explain to you how true that statement has been for me. Thankyou for what you do!

    I've seen you get hooked, Gabe get hooked. Hooks are designed with barbs. (The point that stands backward in an arrow, fishhook, etc., to prevent it from being easily extracted. Hence: Anything which stands out with a sharp point obliquely or crosswise to something else.)🎉 You guys, are amazing.
