Or, for real cheapskates, no guides at all.
You could reach Angoram or Pagwi on the river by PMV, then try and catch a ride to another village with locals heading home. However to see anything more, you would almost certainly need to either hire a boat to take you aroun and get a canoe and start paddling.
