Guyana is a South American country on the Caribbean coast, the only English-speaking nation on the continent. Known for vast rainforests (87% forest-covered), Kaieteur Falls (world's largest single-drop waterfall), diverse wildlife, and rich cultural diversity (Indo-Guyanese, Afro-Guyanese, Indigenous peoples). Georgetown, the capital, features colonial wooden architecture along tree-lined avenues. Visitors are drawn to Kaieteur Falls (five times higher than Niagara), Iwokrama Rainforest and Canopy Walkway, Rupununi savannas and ranches, Georgetown's colonial heritage, Orinduik Falls, giant otters and jaguars, birdwatching (over 800 species), and ecotourism lodges. Guyana offers pristine wilderness, adventure tourism, and authentic Caribbean-South American cultural blend.

Visa Requirements for Guyana

Guyana allows visa-free entry for many nationalities. Citizens of the United States, United Kingdom, most EU countries, Canada, and CARICOM (Caribbean Community) member states can enter visa-free for tourism or business for periods ranging from 30 to 90 days depending on nationality. Visitors must have a valid passport (minimum 6 months validity), proof of sufficient funds, and return or onward ticket. Citizens of countries requiring visas must apply in advance through Guyanese embassies or consulates. Guyana's visa policies are relatively liberal, particularly for Western travelers and Caribbean neighbors. English as the official language makes Guyana accessible for anglophone visitors.
