New Amsterdam
About 18 thousand people.
New Amsterdam is one of Guyana's oldest towns, sitting near the mouth of the Berbice River in the east. It was once a busy Dutch trading spot and still has a calm, historic feel.
You can cross the long Berbice River Bridge, walk quiet streets with old wooden houses, and enjoy the friendly small-town markets.

Old Town Charm
With Dutch beginnings and old wooden homes, New Amsterdam feels like stepping back in time to a slower, gentler day.

The Big Bridge
The floating Berbice River Bridge is one of the longest of its kind, and crossing it over the wide water is a fun adventure.
