Have you ever visited the beautiful interior of Guyana warrior ? The Rev has and will encourage foreigners and fellow Guyanese to visit.

And how many foreigners listened to you. The Guyanese who visited did so out of a desire to see friends and relatives and I bet that 99% of them didnt venture beyond Linden and Bartica or Charity.
There is NOTHING that the PPP is doing to develop an eco/adventure tourism industry which will create employment for less skilled people in Gtwn and in interior locations. So Guyana will get quirky people like Jim Gimlette (Wild Coast) and Rahul Bhattacharya (Sly Company) who describe Guyana and Guyanese as a rather "interesting" and odd group of people living in a thoroughly weird country.
Belize, Costa Rica, Panama will get eco adventure tourists as they have devloped packages which meet the needs of sophisticated tourists. And even little islands like St Kitts, Dominica and St Luca will "excite" tourists with their "rain forest" tours, and opportunities to see monkeys or parrots.
And Guyana will attract only folks going to see friends/family, and others to "save savage Hindus from their paganism which is sure to damn them to hell". Despite publicity on Animal Planet and BBC even those who are intrigued by this very unusual, unknown, intriguing and exotic country will soon give uip in frustration as they search the internet for credible and competitive packages and some assurance that the local tours can be booked in advance and offer safe and reliable services.
