Coming from Suriname we just went over the bridge without paying anything. As stated before, I think in direction Georgetown only heavy vehicles have to pay. The weighbridge was open.

We approached from Guyana and were waved onto the scale. There we weighed in 5,500kg. I stated that we were tourists and non-commercial. She asked if it was a motor-home, and I said yes. She made a few calls and said we would pay only the toll, not an extra fee. We were charged as “medium-truck” according to receipt and info board. The total was $6,840.00.

Reading previous blogs, we decided not to stop at the toll booth. however we were stopped across the river and asked why we did not stop? We answered we are non commercial and tourist? reply no commercial goods. answer no tourist. Proceed and enjoy Guyana.

Bridge for which you have to pay toll, $4000 for a pick up. Bridge closes sometimes (unclear how often/how long, we currently have to wait 30mins).

Mostly the toll is only payable on the east-bound route (ie towards Suriname) but BIG RIGS NOTE for large vehicles only, there is a payload toll on the west-bound route too. We're not entirely sure how it was calculated, but it involves the police officers checking the weights stated on your vehicle registration document and taking a weight reading on a weigh-bridge. We weigh 5.9T and were charged a tiny GYD120 (apparently for a unit of 1T). As we had just arrived from Suriname we had no money. Luckily the girl smiled and let us go this time for such a small amount, but for very big rigs the fee is likely to be a bit higher. May need some local money here.
