Guyana, attractive territory, near Amazonia, remain however (and fortunately) far from mass tourism and does not profit from considerable tourist revenue.

This distance of the tourist tours allowed the maintenance of extraordinary civilizations such as Amerindians, Hmongs or Bushinengs living of near Maroni river (at the border between Guyana and Surinam).

Moreover Guyana abounds a flora and a completely exceptional fauna (marsupial, puma, jaguar, peccary…)

Planete insolite trip is in Cacao (at Hmongs). The objective is to develop the touristic potential (existing and to create) and imply the tourists in  the realization of an environmental action. 

Hmongs were persecuted in their country since the successive departure of Laos of France  (in 1954) and The United States (in 1975). They were the subject of a genocide prepared and organized by the revolutionary party popular Lao, alias Communist Party Lao.

In 1975 two hundred and thousand Hmongs crossed Mekong to take refuge in Thailand from where they left for a third country. One estimates that 140 000 are in the USA, 15 000 are in France (of which Guyana). The remainder is distributed between Australia, Canada and Thailand.

In 1976, the commune of Roura accomodates 500 Hmongs fleeing Laos on the site of Cacao, almost abandoned and located on the old site of holy Augustin bagne, at 70 km of Cayenne.

Hmongs transformed Cacao into a prosperous agricultural village which supplies today the Cayenne market out of fruit and vegetables, and making the Roura district one of the largest agricultural district of Guyana, with more than 1300 farmers.

craft industry is also important : Hmongs women are exceptional dressmakers  and the knives of cacao, worked on the spot are famous. One can see this craft industry Sunday, traditional day of the market.
eco tourism is particularly well adapted because area has neither the will, nor the infrastructure to accomodate mass tourism.
