Not to be missed

• Kaieteur Falls: Whilst technically not in Georgetown, no list can be completed without mentioning a visit to Kaieteur Falls, Guyana’s top attraction. You can take a round-trip flight from Georgetown to Kaieteur National Park and then enjoy a hike through the lush rainforest until you reach the waterfall.

• St George’s Cathedral: Built in the 19th century, this Gothic cathedral is one of the tallest wooden churches in the world and is a source of pride for the nation, designating it as a national monument.

• Stabroek Market: Not only is it the biggest market in Guyana, but it’s also the centre of the city’s life and a microcosm of Guyanese culture. Known for its iconic red clock tower, visiting Stabroek Market is more than just shopping for souvenirs and food. It’s the ideal spot to immerse yourself in the local culture.
