to go
Rainfall in Venezuela is usually greatest between April and October.

The best time to visit is usually between December and April. Guyana
is hot and humid all year, rain should be expected at anytime. The heaviest

Getting There
There are no direct flight services to Venezuela from the UK. It is,
however possible to make the connection in one day without having to
take any enforced stopovers. Iberia and KLM both fly the route, operating
via Madrid and Amsterdam respectively. Guyana is not as well served,
the only practical option is to fly with British West Indian Airways
(BWIA) via Trinidad or Barbados. There is a daily service into Georgetown,
however the flight does not connect all the way through every day.
