It’s far taller than Niagara Falls and remains one of the least commercialized major waterfalls on Earth. Kaieteur National Park, in which the falls are the centerpiece, is remarkably pristine and little visited; no roads link it to the outside world. Perhaps this is part of the lure of this magnificent region. The falls are situated where the Potaro River drops off the eastern edge of an ancient uplifted plateau, which forms the Pan-Tepui or Guianan Highlands region of western Guyana, southern Venezuela and northern Brazil.

Except for the health problems that are listed for each Participant in the booking and registration for the Tours, each Participant represents that such Participant is in good physical health and is able to tolerate the physical demands of the Tours. Each Participant understands, consents, and agrees that such Participant may be removed from the Tours by VENT as detailed in the Responsibility Statement.\r\n\r\n8.\tDispute Resolution. Each Participant acknowledges and agrees that any Claim arising out of or relating to this Waiver will first be submitted in good faith to non-binding mediation in Travis County, Texas. Each Participant further agrees that if the Claim is not settled at mediation, the Claim will be submitted, at the sole discretion of the Released Parties, to arbitration in Austin, Travis County, Texas, administered by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. or its successor (“JAMS”) in accordance with (a) the then-current JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures, and (b) laws of the state of Texas, without regard to any conflict of law rules. No waiver of this Waiver to arbitrate will be enforceable on any Participant or any Released Party, and judgment hereon may be entered by a court in Travis County, Texas having subject matter jurisdiction. If the Released Parties do not elect to have a Claim submitted to arbitration, each Participant acknowledges and agrees that exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any suit based upon a Claim otherwise subject to arbitration under this Waiver will be in Travis County, Texas. Even after suit is filed, the Released Parties will have the right to submit the case to arbitration by motion filed within one hundred twenty (120) days after service of process, summons, citation, or statement of claim on the Released Parties. Each Participant agrees that this agreement to arbitrate, including each related agreement and transaction, is involved in interstate commerce. This agreement to mediate, arbitrate, or submit Claims to court does not waive or modify the release and indemnity contained in this Waiver. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT SUCH PARTY IS WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE AS THE MEMBER OF A CLASS IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW RULES. \r\n\r\n9.\tFurther Assurances for Minor Participants. In the event a Participant includes a minor (a “Minor”), at least one (1) other Participant in the booking and registration in the Tour shall be the parent or legal guardian of such Minor and shall be legally authorized to agree to the terms of this Waiver on behalf of the Minor. Each Participant acknowledges that the Released Parties shall rely on the foregoing representation and warranty, and such Participants shall indemnify and hold harmless the Released Parties from all reliance on such representation and warranty.\r\n\r\n10.\tEnforceability. Each Participant has read and understands this Waiver, which contains the entire and final agreement relating to the subject matter hereof. Each Participant understands and agrees that the terms of this Waiver will be binding on such Participant and such Participant’s heirs, legal representatives, and assigns. If any provision of this Waiver is determined to be void, unenforceable, ineffective, or against public policy, such provision will be disregarded and deemed removed from this Waiver and will not affect the remaining provisions of this Waiver. The terms of this Waiver are contractual and binding.\r\n\r\n11.\tElectronic Signatures. The Participants’ acceptance of this Waiver is further evidenced by the affirmative assent to the same (e.g., by submitting the order for the booking), which is the equivalent of the Participants’ electronic signature. However, for the avoidance of doubt, such electronic signature is not required to evidence or facilitate the Participants’ acceptance and agreement to this Waiver, as the Participants agree that their booking and registration of the Tour constitutes an agreement and acceptance to the terms of this Waiver.\r\n \r\n\r\n",[10140,10143,10146,10148,10151,10153,10155,10157,10159,10161,10163,10166,10168],{"label":10141,"requiredPerParticipant":159,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":159,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10142},"Title","List",{"label":10144,"requiredPerParticipant":159,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":159,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10145},"First Name","String",{"label":10147,"requiredPerParticipant":159,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":159,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10145},"Last Name",{"label":10149,"requiredPerParticipant":159,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":159,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10150},"Mobile","Phone",{"label":10152,"requiredPerParticipant":159,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":159,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10145},"Email",{"label":10154,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10145},"Address",{"label":10156,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10145},"City",{"label":10158,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10142},"Country",{"label":10160,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10145},"State/County/Region",{"label":10162,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10145},"Postcode/ZIP",{"label":10164,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":154,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10165},"I agree to receive marketing emails","Boolean",{"label":10167,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":159,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10145},"How did you hear about us?",{"label":10169,"requiredPerParticipant":154,"requiredPerBooking":154,"visiblePerParticipant":154,"visiblePerBooking":159,"fieldType":10145},"Special Requirements",4.860416,-58.93018,"AUTO_THEN_MANUAL",8,7,"2026-02-06T18:02:17Z",86400,2880,"2026-04-16T15:57:34Z",{"addressLine":21,"postCode":21,"city":21,"state":21,"countryCode":10180,"latitude":10170,"longitude":10171},"gy",[10182],"en_us",[10184,10185],"CATEGORY:Wildlife Watching","TYPE:Multidaytour",[10187],{"allDay":154,"endTime":10188,"endTimeLocal":10189,"id":10190,"priceOptions":10191,"productCode":6064,"seats":2870,"seatsAvailable":199,"startTime":10194,"startTimeLocal":10195},"2026-10-15T12:00:00Z","2026-10-15 12:00:00",459447796,[10192,10193],{"id":10128,"label":10127,"price":10126,"productCode":6064,"seatsUsed":47},{"id":10131,"label":10130,"maxQuantity":1234,"minQuantity":1234,"price":10123,"productCode":6064,"seatsUsed":47},"2026-10-14T12:00:00Z","2026-10-14 12:00:00",{"story":10197,"rels":10221,"error":48},{"name":10198,"created_at":10199,"published_at":10200,"updated_at":10201,"id":10202,"uuid":10203,"content":10204,"slug":10215,"full_slug":10216,"sort_by_date":48,"position":9122,"tag_list":10217,"is_startpage":154,"parent_id":3281,"meta_data":48,"group_id":10218,"first_published_at":10219,"release_id":48,"lang":157,"path":48,"alternates":10220,"default_full_slug":48,"translated_slugs":48},"What's Included","2026-02-26T18:29:30.339Z","2026-03-16T20:30:53.345Z","2026-03-16T20:30:53.356Z",149262214544972,"6a9920ce-bc89-4ba6-b121-12cf78e147c9",{"_uid":10205,"component":10206,"active_body":10207,"active_title":10208,"services_body":10209,"services_title":10210,"accomodations_body":10211,"accomodations_title":10212,"transportation_body":10213,"transportation_title":10214},"44f9d480-81cc-49ef-944d-9dc7b7ec3419","whats-included","Every tour includes the core elements that make our field experiences possible so you can stay engaged with a range of activities.
