The Tourism and Hospitality Association of Guyana (THAG) has joined with Guyana Together to advocate for decriminalization of same-sex intimacy.
Coinciding with World Tourism Day 2024, the two groups held a discussion at the Marriott Hotel themed “Tourism and Peace: Embracing Peace through Diversity and Inclusion.”
During the discussion, Amarylis Lewis, a Senior Trip Planner at Wilderness Explorers, expressed concern about the negative perceptions potential LGBTQ+ visitors hold regarding Guyana’s laws.
