Day 2: Guyana

After breakfast, city tour of historical Georgetown. Georgetown the chief port and capital city of Guyana, situated on the bank of the Demerara River Estuary. Most of the buildings in the city are wooden with unique architecture dating back to the 18th and 19th centuries. The main street in Georgetown provides several excellent examples of old colonial homes, a prime example of which is the State House, built in 1852. The most famous building must be St. George's Cathedral which is also one of the world's tallest freestanding wooden buildings and was consecrated on 1892. At the beginning of the Avenue of the Republic stands the Public Library housed in the Carnegie Building. Other historic buildings along this promenade are the Town Hall, a splendid example of Gothic architecture, and further along are the Victoria Law Courts and St. Andrews Kirk. St. Andrew's is the oldest surviving structure of any church in Guyana. No trip to Georgetown would be complete without a visit to the Botanical Gardens and zoo. The Botanical Gardens houses one of the most extensive collections of tropical flora in the Caribbean and are laid out with ponds, canals, kissing bridges and a bandstand. Over 100 species of Guyanese wildlife can be observed at the Zoo including a wide variety of tropical fishes and birds. The Demerara Harbour Bridge is the longest floating bridge in the world and connects the east and west banks of the Demerara River. Buffet lunch before a free afternoon. Dinner at the hotel.

Machu Picchu is known as one of the most spiritual lands in the world, so why not go all out and Om your way through its ruins?

They participate in multiple meditation and yoga sessions throughout the trip, but the highlight is a private session smack-dab in the middle of the ruins.
