Across the northern shoulder of South America lies a region few travelers truly know: the Guianas. Defined by rivers, rainforest, and centuries of cultural blending, Suriname, French Guiana, and Guyana form a trio of destinations that defy easy comparison. On this journey designed by Lost World Adventures, you’ll explore three distinct countries linked by geography but shaped by entirely different languages, traditions, and histories.

Few destinations remain as profoundly wild as Guyana. Here, immense rainforests merge with sweeping savannahs, rivers carve through untouched wilderness, and nature continues its ancient rhythm largely uninterrupted. This 15-day expedition, crafted and operated by Lost World Adventures, reveals a country defined by both raw beauty and remarkable biodiversity—a place where adventure still feels authentic and discovery still feels real.

The Guiana Shield is a 1.7 billion-year-old Precambrian geological formation in northeast South America and is one of the regions of highest biodiversity in the world. The Shield has 1400 vertebrate species and 1680 bird species. The Shield is overlain by the largest expanse of undisturbed tropical rain forest in the world. Join us as we explore Guyana and Suriname.

Between two oceans, the land narrows into a spine of mountains and volcanoes where rivers spill through jungle and cloud forests brush the sky. This is Central America in its purest form — wild, restless, and alive with water and light. From the whitewater rivers of Costa Rica to the volcanic islands of Lake Nicaragua, this journey traces a route through shifting landscapes and small moments that stay with you long after you’ve left them behind.

Venture deep into the untamed heart of Mexico with Lost World Adventures, where raw adventure and ancient culture collide in the vast expanse of the Copper Canyon. This is no ordinary journey—it’s an expedition into the rugged Sierra Madre, where the trails wind through towering cliffs, remote mesas, and plunging canyons that dwarf even the Grand Canyon in scale.

Start your high-end wilderness adventure in the Falklands Islands and South Georgia. Feeling more like private yachts than cruise ships, small expedition vessels give you privileged access to the islands of the South Atlantic, taking you where larger ships cannot. With a smaller number of passengers, disembarkation is fast and efficient so you spend time exploring, not waiting.
