Is This India Or South America?

Sharing is caring!



Out here in Georgetown, Guyana, I splurge deep into Guyanese food while the incredible Phagwah Holi Festival take center stage as I continue my South America travel series by exploring one of the most culturally diverse countries in the Americas. In this Georgetown travel vlog, I discover why Guyana is considered a Caribbean nation despite being located in South America, experience the colorful Phagwah Holi Festival covered in vibrant paint, and dive deep into authentic Guyanese cuisine by tasting a traditional Guyanese cheese scone, Guyanese beef patty, fried fish with pumpkin dip and roti, Baigan Choka, and other delicious local specialties. Along the way I explore Georgetown’s lively streets with my travel partner PA while learning about Guyana’s unique blend of Indian, African, Indigenous, Portuguese, Chinese, and European influences that have created one of the world’s most fascinating multicultural societies. If you enjoy authentic travel vlogs, backpacking, hidden destinations, world food, Caribbean culture, South America travel, local restaurants, street food, cultural festivals, off-the-beaten-path adventures, and honest travel documentaries, this episode reveals a side of Guyana that most travellers never experience and showcases why this overlooked destination deserves far more attention from adventurous travelers. As an English-speaking South American nation with strong Caribbean historic ties, Guyana’s food scene rivals culinary powerhouses like Peru and Trinidad through its rich demographic diversity and unrefined street flavours. From dodging paint explosions to evaluating local food prices in Georgetown, this unfiltered travel vlog breaks down why Guyana remains an under-the-radar destination for extreme travel lovers, street food enthusiasts, and adventurous backpackers exploring off-the-beaten-path territory in the Americas.
