Timberhead Rain Forest Resort, Guyana
Whenever you're visiting Guyana on vacation or on business then you must make your visit complete by visiting Guyana's number one tourism attraction, the Timberhead Rainforest Resort. Your trip to Timberhead Rainforest Resort will take you along the Kamuni River where overhanging vegetation has stained the water a deep black colour and the chill air is relieved by intermittent bursts of sunlight. You enter the Pokerero Creek and the Amerindian reserve of Santa, called Santa Mission.

Our river trip starts from the Prairie Hotel which is located 15 miles from Georgetown, from here our visitors are fitted with life vests and our trained Captains takes special care to ensure the complete safety of everyone on board. A 25 minutes river ride bring you to the start of the Kamuni River and then into the Pokerero Creek and onto the Timberhead Rainforest Resort

Timberhead is found within this reserve, sited on a sandy hill overlooking the savannah and the Pokerero Creek, and ringed by rainforest. The three native jungle lodges are spaced among the trees, each one handcrafted from local timber, and featuring traditional Troolie Palm thatched roofs.

     

Each lodge has been designed to make the most of the breeze from across the savannah and the incredible views. The lodges have double or twin bedrooms, where you can lie at night atop crisp white linen and look out across the creek. All lodges have full bathroom facilities with fresh running water.

The activities at Timberhead are numerous and include jungle walks on miles of well marked trails. Guides are available or the more adventurous can explore alone. The lodges are surrounded by small creeks which are fun to explore, especially at night, canoeing to spot Caiman and see the nocturnal water lilies. The locations is also famous amongst bird watchers, who have recorded over two hundred different species in the surrounding habitat.

   
Other activities include swimming in the black water creek, volleyball, badminton and fishing. A short trip from the Timberhead Rain Forest Resort is Santa Mission, an Amerindian village where you can see local handicraft and experience village life.

Timberhead Rainforest Resort is of special interest to bird watchers and one can expect to see hundreds of species simply by sitting anywhere on the Timberhead compound. Just recently the rare Red Siskin bird was rediscovered living in large numbers in Guyana, the exact location is not being disclosed for fear of endangering the Siskins.
