  • KAIETEUR FALLS, GUYANA
    Kaieteur Falls is Guyana's record breaking waterfall. It is the largest single drop waterfall in the world. Visiting Kaieteur Falls is a must do for any Guyana trip.
    In this Guyana travel vlog I fly from the Rupununi Savannah in chartered plane and get an amazing view of the falls from above. Then on foot I visit the various viewpoints and best places for photos at Kaieteur Falls.

    I left Guyana as a child 30 years ago for the US. I really should go back someday soon for a visit.

      It was honestly one of my most memorable trips. With so few visitors each year it still feels largely unexplored!

    Oh. My. Goodness. Those Falls make Niagara (the only one I've seen in person) look like a park water fountain. Unreal. Awesome filming Alex!

    Love your video of your visit to Kaieteur Falls. I remember taking the trip and freaking out, how small the plane was. Seeing the Falls was a sight to behold but a little nervous getting too close. One of the pluses for Kaieteur Falls, it has been left in it's natural habitat and not commercialised. Hope you enjoy the rest of your adventures in Guyana. Stay Safe.

    It's an incredible waterfall, but at 226 meters, It is not the tallest single drop or free fall waterfall in the world. In fact, this isn't even the tallest by any metric in Guyana. Despite the fact that that Angel isn't the tallest waterfall on earth contrary to widespread and long standing belief, it still harbours the tallest single drop and free falling waterfall on the planet at 807 meters.

    • @AlexOuthwaite

    • @rvanleersum
      @rvanleersum Před 2 lety

      @@AlexOuthwaite It's a dubious distinction. How is this quantified? What's the criteria? So it's the tallest in the world with a minimum flow rate of? I suspect this is a case of local government and tourism claiming their waterfall is the X in the world - a phenomenon seen countless times. I really think, in terms of natural earth, waterfalls are amongst the most incomplete and misinformed topics when it comes to correct heights, etc. Take Angel for example. Long cited as being 979m tall but my research has concluded it to be an impossibility. Ever try to get topo maps out of Venezuela?
      Regardless, Kaieteur is impressive to say the least and the second highest rated waterfall in the world on our site (rating system takes height, volume primarily into account).

      @@AlexOuthwaite somewhat. niagra has way more water flowing over it and it is a single drop. Kaieteur has a spectacular height and a large amount of water flowing over it. but in both those separate categories it does not rank in the top 10. its has a nice combination of the 2 dimensions. but in no way is it the largest by volume or height.
