Moraikobai Safari 2018 + Mahaicony River Trip

Moraikobai is an Amerindian village located in Region 5 of Guyana. The village is about 96 miles away from the confluence of the Mahaicony River. The population in Moraikobai is just over 500 strong, who are predominantly indigenous peoples from the Arawak tribe.

The community was initially called “Moracoba”; a name that was formed from a combination of two Arawak words; ‘Mora’ meaning tree and ‘Coba’ meaning stump. However, several decades ago the name was officially changed to ‘Moraikobai’.
