Introducing Boa Vista
The state capital, a planned city on the banks of the Rio Branco, is home to more than half of Roraima’s population. It’s long been a transfer point for travelers headed to Guyana or to Venezuela’s beautiful high plains, just three hours north. The town itself lacks pizzazz, but two quality tour outfits based here offer excursions to the pristine and little-visited regions of Serra Grande and Serra de Tepequém.
