Destination overview

From the undisturbed coastline to the dense Amazonian jungle and snow-capped Andean mountains, Venezuela is a land of breathtaking natural beauty.

Situated in South America’s northern coast, Venezuela is as diverse as its landscapes. Home to the world’s tallest waterfall, don’t miss the mesmerising Angel Falls. Standing at 979 metres, there’s nothing quite like this natural wonder. For coastal magic, head east to Puerto La Cruz, where porcelain sands, crystal clear water, warm sunshine and a friendly welcome await.

It’s not often you find a capital city nestled in a mountain valley, but in true Venezuelan style, Caracas is set to impress. Take the mountainside cable car to the summit of Mt Avila for sweeping views of the city and beyond, browse the 17th century Metropolitan Cathedral, get up close and personal with a range of exotic species at the Zoo or visit the Parque Los Chorros, the only capital city park with its own waterfall.
