Backpacking or traveling in Venezuela?

  • Venezuela is a country of spectacular natural beauty, but because of the current political and economic situation, travel in Venezuela is also fraught with risk. There is also a lack of basic amenities. Backpackers and travelers should be well prepared and be extra cautious about their safety. In particular, travel on the western borders is not recommended.  
  • Activity spotting: Angel Falls (highest waterfall in the world); Gran Sabana plateau; the beaches of Los Roques; spot animals in the Amazon; explore Caracas; lounge on the crisp blue beaches; climb Mount Roraima; see the drowned church of Potosi; visit the sinkholes of Sarisarinama.

Living in Venezuela?

  • Life in Venezuela is currently characterized by economic hardship, high inflation, and shortages of basic services such as food, medicine, and fuel. Social life is greatly affected by these conditions.
  • Crime is a major problem in Venezuela, especially in urban areas such as Caracas. It is important to take security measures and live in secure areas.
  • There are still active expat communities, although many expats have left the country because of the difficult conditions.
