WHY VISIT VENEZUELA

A country of records (the highest waterfall in the world, highest cable car, number of rare animal species, etc.), Venezuela offers travellers magnificent and contrasting landscapes.

Caracas, the dynamic and Americanised capital, is also populated by impoverished slums however it does have a number of sites worth visiting: The Cathedral in the Plaza Bolivar, the Petares neighbourhood with its colonial buildings, the birthplace of Simon Bolivar, and also neighbourhoods with vibrant nightlife, such as Las Mercedes, El Rosal and La Floresta.

The Caribbean coast attracts those who appreciate water sports and relaxation with its sandy beaches, clear waters and palm trees.

Along the Orinoco, the third-longest river in South America, you will discover islands covered in forest and inhabited by fishermen, the city of Ciudad Bolivar, impressive waterfalls, including those of Angel Falls (sixteen times higher than Niagara Falls), and finally the amazing sight of the Gran Sabana.

The Sierra Nevada de Merida dominates the surrounding landscape with its rugged mountains, featuring traditional villages and you can follow trails surrounded by beautiful views, and also visit the city of Merida, just below the Bolivar summit, with its famous cable car, the world’s highest and longest.
