I was born in Guyana,but immigrated to Canada 46 years ago.I went for a visit recently and was pleasantly surprised with all the development.I am surprise you did not get lost in Georgetown,because I needed help to get around.Thanks for showcasing Guyana
Thanks for visiting Guyana! It's always fun to see our country from a different perspective. Edit: -The botanical park has the entrance gate on the other side of the lot, on Vlissengen Road. -Eggball is boiled egg in a cassava 'batter'. -People usually speak Guyanese creole, English, Spanish and Mandarin, but some schools also teach French and Portuguese because of our neighbours. -Most Guyanese are friendly, but we usually keep to ourselves. However, if you ask for directions or help, I've found people are more than happy to assist you. -To my knowledge, Guyana hosts GuyOil, Solgas, Rubis and some smaller privately owned gas stations further away from the Greater Georgetown area -Pepperpot will mostly be made around December time for Christmas, but some local restaurants and shops have it year round. -Our seawall is a place for religious and secular events. In the past, that area hosted trampolines, bouncy-houses and food vendors that catered to families enjoying the weekend. It was further developed into a more streamlined cafeteria on one side of the area, with a playground and walkway in other parts. Hindus perform religious rituals near the ocean and some people practice catch and release fishing there too. We also hold small gatherings and parties around Easter time as children fly kites. In the night, the place comes alive as people park around the wall with stereos and relax after a long week of work. -Guyana does have a lot of gold and a lot of oil! But we try to stay humble -We use a grid-layout street system. Most streets run straight, North-Soth, East-West, so its easier to navigate. -Buses can be caught anywhere along their route, but that's only if they have space. If you need to get to somewhere specific, the central hub for buses in Georgetown is near Stabroek Market (don't worry about finding it, ALL town buses start and end their route there, so just tell the driver you're going to the park and they'll take you there). -People don't usually see vloggers in Georgetown, and most passerbys don't like to be videoed, so that will explain the looks. Though you should always exercise phone safety in every country you go to. Every country has people that might take advantage of you not knowing the place. Most importantly, always carry an umbrella/parasol/hat if you want to walk about between 10am-1pm, the sun is BRUTAL!
I went to Guyana with my Dad twice as a kid. I'm half Guyanese and half Trini. He took us to do wild stuff. We went down the Essequibo River to fish. I was scared out of my mind to be in a rickety boat and watching pirahnas and crocodile in the water. We visited the goldsmiths in my family and learned about guyanese gold. I ate good food, laughed, and had a really good time with my cousins. I love Guyana and can't wait to go back one day especially now that its seeing brighter days economically.
Since, Georgetown is like 6 feet or more under sea level, the Dutch built the canals and culvert systems to drain water away from the coast. The old systems are still in place and works very well but these days with population growth they are rebuilding and making new systems.
Thanks for sharing this with me i didn’t know why there were so many canals so this makes sense.. everyone in the comments should take notes from you and inform me instead of saying I’m ignorant haha. Thanks for the comment
They are not taking care of the canals. Don’t know where you get that information from . They use to . The majority of the canals are stuffed with garbage from the residents and the city not cleaning the canals .
@@verliesally2846 I am aware. That's where the overgrown population comment came from. They are plans to redo the system but I think the city grew too quickly in recent years without tackling the garbage problem, population growth and rising sea levels. The city planners never took any of those things into factor when they started allowing all these big buildings to go up. The entire city needs a revamp of modern waste disposal system.
Guyana is part of the Caribbean because it has the same people and similar history. The Bahamas, Belize and Barbados are also considered Caribbean. Barbados and the Bahamas are located in the Atlantic and Belize is in Central America on the coast of the Caribbean. So Caribbean classification is based on cultural, historic/ancestral similarities plus the association as members of CARICOM.
@@CharlesClinton-bt6nl Yes that's true to a certain degree but Haiti is a member of CARICOM too and they don't speak English. I forgot to mention that there are Caribbean countries that don't belong to CARICOM. Those countries are part of the USA, Netherlands, UK, and France.
Best you do a Caribbean tour bro 😭😭😭 but appreciate you coming to Trinidad&Tobago bro glad you had a great time also in Jamaica aswell hope you enjoy Guyana bro stay safe bless up 🤝🏼
Bro, I give you a lot credit going to Guyana for the first time blindly and exploring. Guyana is beautiful and the people are hospitable and friendly..The country is huge and there is a lot to see.. Hope you have a true Guyanese experience!
Thank you for visiting my native land [ 🇬🇾 ] Guyana where I lived between 1972 & 1991 before migrating to the States where I remained to this day. Love the sceneries! Lot’s of beautiful precious memories.
Thank you for visiting!! Appreciate your kind remarks 🫶 Guyana is pretty HUGE, to get to amazing historical sites and tourists sites, you need more than 3 days lol. People are actually friendly but we just look like we're not lol. Just wanna get through the day. Kaieteur Falls, Fort Island, Linden Blue Lake, Amerindian Settlements etc are great places. Next time you plan on coming back, definitely contact a tour agency or tour operator
Po'Jo I don't think many people know anything about Guyana but I know you will take us to school and give us some excellent classes on this country❗️Looking forward to it❗️
Nice video. Small corrections, that roundabout you pointed out is not the first roundabout in Guyana, the first major roundabout is located at the Kingston seawall, the roundabout you pointed out is the third roundabout to be placed in the country’s highway system. The Jaguar is also the national animal as well not the anteater. I look forward to more of your videos showcasing Guyana, keep up the good content!
St. Georges was just rehabilitated, that's why it looks so pristine and it was actually built by the British after they wrestled Guyana away from the Dutch.
I see a lot of China Harbor Construction, CHEC projects going on. Could see how the discovery of oil recently, is changing Guyana. Also, if the Guyanese feel the claims made by Venezuela to a large chunk of the country, and threats of military aggression have any concerns. Make sure you take home some Demerara sugar and rice. You will love it. Remember it is a former British Colony so you will find some commonality with Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago or any other former British/English Caribbean Island. Enjoy your trip!
Hi Po Jo! I loved all of your Trinidad and Tobago videos, as well as those of Jamaica, blessings to you, looking forward to more of your travels, as you said, I travel vicariously through you! 😆
Yes brother just came back from st.lucia have to catch up with your vlogs love the series man watching the Guyana ones now I also travels a lot just not a vlogger like you next trip Grenada love you videos man your always do a good job on the reporting nicely explained lots of Carrribean people in NYC keep them coming and good luck.
Always wanted to visit Guyana but after I leave Trini it’s always just a stopover. 😩 Beautiful place. I don’t know why my Guyanese friends tell me there’s nothing to see there. It looks beautiful. Thanks for the vid 🙏🏾💛
Excuse me but ' weird ' no say unique we are not Jurassic Park please enjoy your stay your statements about my country 🇬🇾 is being monitored by me myself and I 🤔☮️
@@PoJoTheBackPacker, I was born in Georgetown Guyana under the British colonial rule. Guyanese love their country so watch what you are saying. In just a few short years, Guyana has become the richest country in South America and the Caribbean and even richer than some European countries. In reality, it doesn't seems so but this is the fact. Guyana is not a tourist destination, and could feel as a waste of time because of infrastructural neglect and maintenance. So you will have to get someone to show you the in's and outs of Guyana. You won't be able cover much on your short stay because it's a very big country and you would only appreciate it if you live there. Stay safe and be good. Guyana could be a wonderful place or just a waste of time. It all depends on what you do. I hope your stay will be pleasant. God bless 🙌🙏❤
I'm glad he went without prejudice to visit. Maybe there are people who follow vloggers just for topical- topics:-) Guyana is not weird, it is wildly tropical and the people are full of passions and opinions. One of the most beautiful countries, geographically. We have Caribbean history, and South American vibrancy. And so much more! My literary fiction novel is coming out soon, set in Guyana from 1939 to 1989. Written by a Guyanese person. Set and ended in Guyana. It is proudly ,unapologetically Guyanese. It's going to be an enjoyable and immersive read!
I am Guyanese, Kitty is where I grew up, I am enjoying the places you’re showing on your video for it brings back childhood memories! Thank you for going to check out Guyana! I live in Quebec now!
Ty for visiting my home country for the first 14 years of my life!! Very nostalgic.. You took me back to my childhood walking down camp street by St Roses and St Agnes. The egg ball is street food made with seasoned boiled cassava (yucca). I'm overdue for a visit. I haven't been back since 99.
I heard that Guyana was in the middle of Oil Boom, I hope the Govt will invest well in the middle of that high GDP Growth. Like invest in Education and Infrastructure, reduce the level of corruption and others as well as a government that prioritizes its people, anything that what people there need the most... Best Wishes from the US Citizen here 🙏 🇺🇸🇬🇾
Glad to see you in Guyana, I was there in June, my 2nd trip. Guyana is an unofficial Caribbean country, as part of Caricom (Caribbean Community). There isn't really any beach in Guyana per say, but there is a famous Kaieteur waterfall but it's a plane ride away. But do take a boat ride if you can. It's very cheap like $100 Guyanese to go from Georgetown to Vreed en Hoop, on the Demerara which is about 0.50 cents US. There's a Ital food place in Georgetown so do check that out if you can. All the best, do stay safe.
Glad u made to my home country..🙂...i wish people Ring Trinidad would to you a lil something because we are very similar in culture and there's a lot of Trinis with Guyanese roots and vice versa...enjoy the food😊
Another great video, would be great if you have the opportunity to go into the interior, it was amazing for me when I went to Guyana. thanks for sharing. 💛
I clicked on this vid because I'm from the UK of Guyanese heritage and visited for the first time this year so was interested to hear your thoughts. The entire comment section is cracking me up though 😂
I know your time in Guyana is short, but Georgetown is not the whole of Guyana, if you can, try to cross the Demerara river and visit the West coast and Essequibo islands, you would be shocked at the expanse and beauty of the country, and no visit to Guyana is complete unless you visit Kaieteur falls, the world's largest single drop waterfalls.
It's a WEIRD world. You have been to Trinidad. I'm from Guyana, but if you see Felix Trinidad, you have seen me. My Colombian neighbor here in North America once said to me that they first took me for Tito. After that famous 8th round it probably was a nightmare for Mayorga to even consider a rematch.
Visit Sint Maarten bro, you wouldn't regret it. Only ending up going their for a work assignment and have been back multiple times for vacation. Absolute gem in the Caribbean.
Pojo my wife were from Guyana we got married 1984, I been to Guyana 🇬🇾 in 1986 and 1997,them days Guyana was not so well off but the people treated me very well, with the oil boom lots of people are flowing into Guyana as well as Trinidadians opening business, from NYC
Can’t say you are in the Caribbean when you are in South America, because you can’t be in two places at once . Love learning about the countries you visit Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago is my favorites so far , since you are already in Guyana you should visit Suriname it has a rich culture and history.
My good friend is from Guyana!!..the Indian influence is quite strong especially when it comes to food i believe also african influence can be seen too..not aure which is stronger...will be interested to see how u like it Pojo...i hear the food is amazing!..probably similar to T &T...im quite sure ul love thia country too apparently amazing nature life..have fun!! 😊
So sorry you didn’t get to visit the Promenade Gardens! The entrance is to the East The Beautiful House however opposite the Gardens that you noticed (with the solar panel), is our President’s Residence
You know when I came to the states in the 80s people where you from I had to give them a geography lesson you to mention JIM JONEE now this small country is on everybody list . Respect to you my brother thank you from NY
To all my Guyanese cousins ❤️ your country is beautiful 😍 🤩

Lmfao i did some research
Thank u for coming to Guyana 🇬🇾 I hope u had the best time ever
Guyana feels very nostalgic for me. It’s strange. Maybe because I have friends from there, but feels like a home away from home. Very good energy
Thank you for advertising my country Guyana you did a great job 👍

Lmao don't forget sophia
Stabroke needs to be cleaned up, my dad got so sick back in 2012 visiting, he said it smelled awful

Glad to see you in Guyana, I was there in June, my 2nd trip. Guyana is an unofficial Caribbean country, as part of Caricom (Caribbean Community). There isn't really any beach in Guyana per say, but there is a famous Kaieteur waterfall but it's a plane ride away. But do take a boat ride if you can. It's very cheap like $100 Guyanese to go from Georgetown to Vreed en Hoop, on the Demerara which is about 0.50 cents US. There's a Ital food place in Georgetown so do check that out if you can. All the best, do stay safe.
Thanks for the tips! I’ll try to check all that out.

Tell Pojo yuh secret for preventing shrivel balls…did you invest in a muzzle for your wife? What exactly was your workaround to that god awful accent?
Can’t say you are in the Caribbean when you are in South America, because you can’t be in two places at once . Love learning about the countries you visit Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago is my favorites so far , since you are already in Guyana you should visit Suriname it has a rich culture and history.
What part of Massachusetts ?
