“Just Returned From A Few Glorious Months In Guyana”

in Letters April 22, 2019 1 Comment

Hello Michael!

Just read your piece, “An Enjoyable And Unexpectedly-Memorable Experience In One Of Guyana’s Tropical Forests”, with great interest and pride [pun intended]!! Having just returned from a few glorious months in Guyana, it was affirming to read about how impressed you were with your experience at Splashmins.

While I didn’t get to Splashmins this visit, I experienced similar, uniquely-Guyanese, attentive service, excellent cuisine [I’m a ‘foodin’ too] and personalized meal requests — and breathtaking scenery, flora and fauna — at the following establishments, to name a few: Herdmanston Lodge in Georgetown; Rupununi Eco Hotel in Lethem; Aruwai Resort in Mazaruni.

Like Francis Jeffers (a non-Guyanese Pride reader, who wrote a letter complimenting Guyana’s beauty) I really hope that more Guyanese will take the opportunity to explore and experience our “beautiful Guyana”.
