About this trip
This day tour offers access to Kaieteur Falls, one of the world's most powerful single-drop waterfalls and a defining feature of Guyana's interior. The falls drop 226 meters in a single uninterrupted plunge into a sandstone gorge surrounded by primary rainforest. By volume, Kaieteur exceeds Niagara and Victoria Falls.
The tour operates by aircraft from Georgetown's Ogle Airport, with a 50-minute flight each way over unbroken rainforest. You'll have approximately two hours on the ground at Kaieteur National Park.
