What to do and see in Georgetown, Demerara-Mahaica: The Best Things to do Good for Couples

October 19, 2021 Flossie Demartino

Although not a crowded Caribbean tourist spot, Georgetown is a unique city that serves as a perfect jumping point for ecotours into the South American interior. Its Victorian and Dutch Colonial architecture is detailed with louvered window shutters and brick and stone work. Built below the high tide level, the city is protected by a large seawall and drained by a grid of canals. Sundry goods can be found at the distinctive Stabroek Market, while the landmark Light House offers panoramic views.

This is a historical building, tallest wooden building in the Caribbean, well worth taking a tour inside the building, its free to enter except during service when you will be asked to wait until the service finishes

This Bridge is usually used by the Romantic during Courting and sometimes Proposals. Unfortunately I wasn't on a Romantic visit but just couldn't help taking out a photo on this iconic site.

Guyana Botanical Gardens

Reviewed By mbg1968 - Washington DC, United States

It's been close to 50 years since I last visited these gardens. I wanted to see the Seven Ponds area and the memorial to the Honorable LFS Burnham. The 'kissing' bridge, fountain, and grassy areas enticed me to return to sit peacefully on a future visit. I don't know if the manatees are still a part of these gardens. However, that would be a treat as they were my favorite.
