Four hundred years ago, English explorer Sir Walter Raleigh went to Guyana in search of El Dorado. He was one of the first Englishmen the Makushi tribespeople had ever seen. Four centuries on, a team of children from the UK have come to follow in Raleigh's footsteps. They are the Serious Explorers and, just like Raleigh, they are relying on local tribespeople for help. Nowadays, the Makushi dress in modern clothes, but for many of them their way of life has changed very little since Raleigh's day. They still live along Guyana's rivers and rely heavily on the local environment for both food and materials. While a few have access to technology like mobile phones, most have no electricity or running water. The Serious Explorers are invited to join in a traditional celebration led by the local shaman and to participate in a Makushi banquet.
