We have done over the years done many trips all over the world. Our 7 day Three Guyanas trip has been one of the very best. In particular, the quality of the guides and drivers was outstanding. Kenneth, John and Dizelle (sp?) were all friendly, helpful, proud of their respective countries, and eager to share their extensive knowledge with travelers. We can highly recommend this tour.

I had a great time on this tour. TTG booked the tour for me. I drove to Kourou myself, but Glen and John happened to be there for another traveler and helped me get on the right boat and once on the islands, John gave me tips and suggestions so I can maximize the trip experience. I am deeply thankful to John for this. Overall, a great experience. Also, I did some this piece wise but I think if you let TTG handle the whole 3x Guianas visit for you, they can create an amazing journey for you. Go for it.

TTG is an excellent and professional company. I was doing my visit of the Guyanas piece wise and on my own and not as part of an overall tour. In this quest, I realized the complexity of getting to Cayenne from Paramaribo, given direct flights are not available. Luckily I found TTG. They arranged a perfect and excellent transfer for me. First off, they were extremely responsive to my questions. This gave me peace of mind. The day of the trip, driver showed up well on time. Drove professionally and courteously. Made sure I understood the border requirements etc. the arranged boat was ready for me. My driver on French Guiana side, was also excellent. He was there to receive me as soon as I did the border crossing. The drive is long, but he was again professional, safe, and courteous. I had asked for a brief detour, that ended up taking an hour. The driver patiently waited for me, and made sure I got to my hotel safely. I highly recommend Travel The Guianas.

Great tour which crammed in many different sites in a relatively short period of time. Big shout out to Borger who quarterbacked the entire trip. Super fast to respond to my questions via WhatsApp
