Guyana Highlights

Guyana’s landmark sites range from historic Georgetown architecture to remote interior vistas. This list includes St. George's Cathedral, a 43.5-meter freestanding wooden structure from 1894, and the Umana Yana, a 1972 palm-thatched hut representing indigenous Wai-Wai design. Natural highlights feature the Rainbow and Boy Scout viewpoints, which provide specific vantage points over Kaieteur Falls and the Potaro River gorge. Further east, the Tacama area offers views across the expansive Berbice savannahs.
