A Classic Ecotour Hosted by Indigenous People Thumbnail description:
Host Damon G. Corrie is "the inheritor of the now ceremonial traditional Lokono-Arawak Paramount Chieftaincy (and the current democratically elected Sovereign Chief of the Confederacy)" as well as the author of 4 books on Amerindian history. With help from his extensive network of tribal family and friends in Guyana's interior he can provide just about any kind of customized ecotour in the region. Damon specialties are his own people's history, and herpetology -- reptiles and amphibians. In this tour tribal villages supply expert local guides, food and lodging.
