BAGGAGE RESTRICTIONS

Baggage limitations vary greatly depending on the tour. Generally speaking, luggage including standard-sized suitcase, camera bag, and daypack can be accommodated during land transport. Tours involving in-country flights may have a strict baggage limit that varies by country. This is especially true in Guyana, where domestic flights are on small planes and baggage limits are very strict and encompass all luggage and personal items. Participants are responsible for any excess baggage charges they may incur. Unfortunately, weight limits enforced by carriers are often inflexible, so photographers should consult with Exotic Birding or the airline prior to departure if weight limits appear to be an issue for your tour.

It goes without saying that oversized bags, steamer trunks, or multiple suitcases should be avoided. Participants who bring excess baggage may be required to store some of their luggage at their expense for the duration. Please refer to our packing list for further information on what to bring on tour.
