Kaieteur Falls

One of the world's most powerful single-drop falls - 226 metres of the Potaro plunging off a sandstone plateau, deep in pristine Guyanese rainforest with no road for hundreds of miles.

Expedition · Multi-day
1-hour charter flight · roadless rainforest
Expedition - by air. There is no road. A "day tour" exists, but only as a chartered flight from Georgetown (~1h each way) landing on a jungle airstrip, then a short guided walk to the viewpoints. Book ahead with a reputable operator; check visa rules. Drier windows (Feb-Apr, Sep-Nov) give the best views. Real wilderness - stay with your guide.
