My girlfiend and I are going to Guyana around October and November. We are planning on going with a tour operator and staying in the Rewa area for a week and hitting Kaiteur Falls before we leave. Does that sound like the best plan or would you reccomend other options.

Thank you for any help,
Matt

Does anyone know how long and how one travels to Port Kaituma? Are there reputable tour agencies that will take you to the former Jonestown location?? And if so what is the usual going rate? I am looking into traveling to Guyana and can not leave there w/out seeing that area. Advanced thanks!

First: How long does it take to get from Georgetown to Port Kaituma? Are there any tour agencies/guides that will go to Jonestown? If so is there public lodging in Port Kaituma. I am assuming that is a closer region to Jonestown than Georgetown.

I need to go Santa Elena, Venezuela to Latham, Guyana. I am a US Citizen with a Chilean ID for foreigners. I am hoping to cross the border with the chilean ID: If it doesn´t work, or they ask for my passport, are there any other options for me at the border? Can one bribe the guards for a 2 day permit to cross to Guyana or get a permit to cross somehow? I read that Brazilian Law Nr 6.8.15 Article 8 states that no transit visa is required if the person is on a continuous trip interupted only for mandatory stops. Is this border recognized, and are there travel companies booking passage for this to make this a more believeable arguement?

Will they need any other finicial documents from me or the other person that may sponser my husband like tax information? What else would I need to know about the affidavit of support? Thank you for any information that you may be able to give me.
