Cara Lodge is a Georgetown boutique hotel housed in a heritage wooden building on Quamina Street, Kingston. Its guest list skews toward writers, diplomats, and the kind of traveller who has visited Guyana before and knows they want greenheart floors over a Marriott lobby. They also know the CJIA run can be painful if the taxi is negotiated at the terminal curb.

GuyWay handles the 41 km transfer for a fixed fare, quoted before you confirm. The car is an all-electric Tesla; the driver has met our team in person and passed a licence and police-clearance check; the fare doesn't change if traffic adds ten minutes through Providence. Schedule the pickup in the app with your flight number: the driver tracks the flight, re-timing is at no charge if it runs late, and you meet at the terminal's single entrance with the driver's name, car and plate in the app. Sign-up works with a foreign mobile number, so the app can be set up before you fly. Returning guests can book the run back to CJIA from the lodge steps in the same app, at any hour, with the fare shown before they confirm.

Ready when you are.
