Unesco Cultural Heritage: Rabinal Achí on 25 January
By Condor Verde Guatemala • 1 December 2025
The Rabinal Achí – a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity – is a traditional Maya drama expressed through masked dance, theatre and music. It dates back to the 15th century and is one of the few surviving pre-Hispanic Maya performances. By taking part, the living enter into contact with the dead, represented by masks. Recalling their ancestors is not simply a way of preserving the heritage of the past. It is also a vision of the future, since one day the living will join their ancestors.
The Rabinal Achí is performed every year on 25 January in the Maya town of Rabinal, located 80 km north of Guatemala City. Visitors are welcome to join the festivities.
The Orinoco Delta & Orinoco Delta Lodge
By Condor Verde Venezuela • 1 December 2025
The Orinoco Delta in eastern Venezuela is a vast labyrinth of rivers, canals and mangrove forests where the Orinoco River fans out into the Atlantic. Home to the indigenous Warao people (meaning "people of the canoes"), the delta is rich in wildlife – from river dolphins and caimans to countless bird species. Remote, humid and intensely biodiverse, it offers one of the most atmospheric nature experiences in South America.
Guests stay at the Orinoco Delta Lodge, a jungle lodge in the heart of the delta. The eleven cabins are rustic yet comfortable, with architecture inspired by indigenous Warao culture, and the cuisine is delicious. The two- and three-night packages include excursions to explore the rivers and jungle led by indigenous guides, wildlife watching, canoeing, kayaking, visits to indigenous communities, piranha fishing, and watching the sunset in the company of dolphins.
