Mobile Networks in Guyana
Guyana has two main mobile operators: Digicel Guyana and GTT (Guyana Telephone and Telegraph). Digicel provides 4G LTE in Georgetown and along the coast. GTT has 4G in Georgetown and main towns on the coastal road. Both carriers' coverage diminishes rapidly inland.
Georgetown has the strongest coverage. Demerara harbour, Stabroek Market, the embassies on Main Street, and suburban areas all have 4G. The East Coast Demerara corridor, which runs along the coast toward Rosignol, has 4G along the main road.
The interior of Guyana is covered by deep Amazonian rainforest. Kaieteur Falls, reachable only by light aircraft from Georgetown, has no mobile coverage at the falls site. Iwokrama Forest, the North Rupununi, and the Kanashen Amerindian Protected Area all have no mobile signal. Lodge camps in the Rupununi may have satellite phones for emergencies. Plan all interior travel with the assumption of no mobile coverage. Australian travellers should confirm their handset is unlocked and supports the local network bands.
