The Wild Tales

The cave we were guided to by our colleagues from Kopinang turned out to be one of the greatest experiences we’ve ever had 🇬🇾

We honestly never imagined that the site they spoke of would be this extensive. We thought we were going to see a little scribble on the wall, nothing could have prepared us for what we saw 😂

Have you ever wondered what else might be out there?

The reality of a country as vast and unexplored as Guyana is that there are likely many archaeological sites still hidden in remote corners, long forgotten by time.

You might ask, why is this important?
Documenting sites like this is essential. They could one day be destroyed or simply lost to time. Yet they hold the key to understanding pre-colonial indigenous cultures, their movement, settlements, and traditions, before any history was ever written down.

Hopefully, one day Kopinang can include this in their tourism product, or use it in educational materials to share with all of Guyana.

One thing’s for sure, this won’t be the last time something like this is uncovered. We believe we’ve only scratched the surface 🙏

Are you ready for 2026?
We’ve got expeditions and jungle survival courses happening all year, and you’re invited to join the adventure 🥳

Next big expedition: Makarapan Mountain, deep in the North Rupununi ⛰️
This mythical mountain has long captured the imagination, and now we’re heading back to explore its secrets.

From searching for archaeological sites and climbing to its breathtaking peak, to fishing, wildlife tracking, and immersing ourselves in one of the most pristine rainforest environments imaginable, this is not a trip to miss 🙏

🗓️ March 3rd to March 15th, 2026

Inspiring things happening in Columbia 🫶🌍🕊️

Colombia’s decision to ban all new oil and mining projects across its Amazon rainforest marks a major shift in regional conservation.

The move pauses 43 oil projects and 286 mining applications across more than 186,000 square miles of biodiverse forest. Leaders, including environment minister Irene Vélez Torres, describe the Amazon as a shared system that demands collective responsibility.

Colombia aims to designate the entire region as a renewable natural resource reserve, positioning itself as the first Amazon nation to protect its full forest territory from extractive expansion.

The plan, however, must pass through a mandatory consultation process with 566 Indigenous communities whose lives, governance rights, and ancestral territories are directly tied to the land. Their involvement will determine the path forward.

If implemented, the ban could help protect endangered species, stabilize regional climate systems, and reduce pressures that drive deforestation. It also sets a precedent that other Amazon countries will likely watch closely.

Nothing beats a day in the jungle 😜
Probably the best possible place for some good old escapism, running away from it all, hiding from responsibilities, and letting your mind and soul do what they deserve the most: some unhindered wandering through time and space, free from the weight of our modern world 🫶

We can’t solve your problems, and we might even make your financial situation worse 😅
But one thing is certain, we will give you an unforgettable experience that no one can ever take away from you 😉

A little fishing on the B***o B***o River for dinner during our most recent jungle survival course 😜
We just wrapped up a private survival course with one guest, which gave us the perfect opportunity to fully immerse ourselves in some fishing.

This quick spin down to Piranha Bay turned out great, a few piranhas and a nice catfish made for a solid jungle dinner 🎣

Did you know we offer private jungle survival courses?
Whether you’re coming solo, with friends, or as a company retreat, we can tailor the experience just for you.
Flexible dates, focused training, and an exclusive opportunity to refine your skills before entering your solo-phase.

Our jungle survival course covers a wide range of both traditional and modern survival skills 🙂
No skill stands alone, the entire course is built around repetition, learning through doing, and discovering your strengths within each challenge. Ultimately, you’ll gain not only the know-how, but the know-when, understanding which skills to use, and at what time 🙌

From the outside, it may look like it’s all about practical tasks. But in truth, every lesson is rooted in your mental capabilities, your ability to learn, adapt, and truly listen 😉
