Guyana: U.S. State Department Issues Level 3 Travel Advisory

The U.S. Department of State has issued a Level 3 travel advisory for Guyana, advising reconsideration of travel due to crime. Violent crime is common, especially at night, including murder and armed robbery. Local police often lack resources to respond effectively. U.S. government employees are prohibited from certain markets and should avoid areas like National Park and Seawall after dark.
