Everyone says its safe to walk around in the daytime as long as you stay in the right areas, although a lot of it looked the same to me. I travel a lot for work and pleasure and as fantastic as most of the people I met were I will not return to Guyana unless my work requires it again. That said my company has a few people living/working down there now and they have not had an issue yet, although they do live in a guarded compound.
