Getting there

Car

If you're traveling by car, begin your journey in Bartica, which is a key town in the Cuyuni-Mazaruni region. Head west on the Bartica-Potaro Road, a well-maintained road that takes you towards the interior. Continue for approximately 30 kilometers until you reach the junction for the Cuyuni River. At the junction, turn left and follow the signs towards the river crossing. You will need to take a ferry across the Cuyuni River, which typically costs around GYD 500 for vehicles. After crossing, continue driving for another 20 kilometers until you reach a dirt road heading towards the Kumarau Waterfalls. This road might require a 4x4 vehicle due to its rugged nature. Drive for about 10 kilometers down this dirt road until you reach the waterfalls.

Public Transportation

For those opting for public transportation, start your journey in Bartica. Take a minibus heading towards the Cuyuni region. The fare is approximately GYD 1500, and the journey will take about 1.5 to 2 hours. Ask the driver to drop you off at the junction leading to the Cuyuni River ferry crossing. From there, you will need to take the ferry across the river, costing around GYD 200. Once you reach the other side, you can either walk or hire a local taxi to take you along the dirt road towards Kumarau Waterfalls. If you choose to walk, it will take about 2 to 3 hours to reach the waterfalls, so ensure you are well-prepared with water and snacks.
