Traffic drives on the left. All-weather roads are concentrated in the eastern coastal strip, although there is now a road inland as far as Linden and there are plans to extend it as far as the Brazilian border. Because of Guyana's many rivers, most journeys of more than a few miles outside the capital will involve ferries and the attendant delays. Georgetown's Stabroek market is the terminus for minibuses. These are regular but generally crowded.
Buses run to all areas, departing whenever they are full.
The first buses leave at around 5am, and services continue until about 2100. Within Georgetown, buses run all night. At night, it is advisable to travel by taxi. Vehicles are plentiful. For longer trips, fares should be agreed before departure.
