GTA greenlights five tour operators to restart business

The Guyana Tourism Authority (GTA) has announced that it has given conditional approval to Baganara Island Resort, Hurakabra River Resort, Rock View Lodge, Waikin Ranch and Elite Kayaking & Nature Tours to resume their operations, including the hosting of travellers at their properties.

In a news release on Friday, the GTA said four other businesses are being inspected this weekend and are expected, based on a desk review of their Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to receive approval early in the new week.

It noted that conditional approval is tied to the National COVID-19 measures and GTA’s recommended hygiene and sanitation protocols.
