Why Visit Rewa Eco Lodge?
Deep in the heart of Guyana’s Rupununi lies a hidden gem where nature, culture, and and adventure come together. Rewa Eco Lodge is more than just a place to stay - it’s a community-run experience that connects you to one of the most untouched corners of South America. Whether you’re seeking breathtaking wildlife, authentic cultural exchange, or pure peace and quiet, here are just a few reasons why Rewa should be on your travel list.
1. A True Escape into Nature
Rewa sits at the confluence of the Rewa and Rupununi Rivers, surrounded by pristine rainforest and winding waterways. Here, the wilderness is alive. You may spot giant river otters gliding through the water, colorful macaws soaring overhead, or the world’s largest rodent -the Capybara on the river side. Birdwatchers are especially drawn to Rewa, with over 400 species recorded in the area - from tiny hummingbirds to the majestic harpy eagle.
But the real star of Rewa’s waters is the arapaima - one of the world’s largest freshwater fish. Guest have the rare opportunity to witness and even catch-and-release these giants, while learning about the conservation efforts that protect them.
2. Unique Adventure Await
Breathtaking views from Awarime Mountain — one of Rewa’s most rewarding hikes.
Every day at Rewa offers a new kind of adventure. You might begin with a dawn boat ride, watching the mist lift off the rivers as wildlife awakens. Or you can hike Awarime Mountain for sweeping views of endless rainforest. For those who love water, a trip to Carona Falls is a must - a stunning hidden waterfalls surrounded by lush greenery and ancient petroglyphs carved into rock.
If you prefer a slower pace, guided walks along forest trails reveal medical plants, secret wildlife, and the quiet magic of the jungle. In the evening, relax with stargazing by the riverbank, where the night glitters undisturbed by the City lights.
3. Community- Run and Sustainable
What makes Rewa Eco Lodge truly special is the people. The lodge is owned and operated by the indigenous community of Rewa Village. This means every visit directly supports local families, conservation projects, and the future of the village.
Guests are welcomed not just as visitors, but as friends. You’ll learn about traditional crafts, food, and stories and see how the community balances modern life with deep respect for the land. Choosing Rewa means you’re not only experiencing Guyana’s wilderness - you’re also helping to protect it for generations to come.
4. Comfort in the Wilderness
While Rewa is remote, it doesn’t mean sacrificing comfort. The lodge offers a choice of traditional benabs or cabins that are all self-contained with en-suite bathrooms. All rooms are fitted with comfortable beds, mosquito nets, and natural touches that blends seamlessly into the environment.
Meals are another highlight - freshly prepared dishes featuring fish from the river, chicken, Rupununi beef, and seasonal fruits. Guest also enjoy drinks from The Laughing Arapaima bar, the perfect spot to unwind after a day of adventure. For those who love a more rustic experience, there’s even the option to sligh a hammock and sleep under the stars.
