Practical Information

Getting Around

This itinerary requires a mix of transportation modes. Private drivers or organized tours are recommended for safety and convenience, especially for longer routes between regions. Domestic flights are essential for reaching Canaima (Ciudad Guayana to Canaima). Boat tours are necessary for accessing Morrocoy and Mochima national parks and Angel Falls. In cities like Mérida, walking is pleasant and taxis are readily available. Due to current conditions in Venezuela, advance planning and booking through reputable agencies is strongly advised. Road conditions vary significantly, and travel times can be unpredictable.

Book Ahead

Book Canaima National Park packages (including flights and Angel Falls tours) at least 2-3 months in advance. Reserve Teleférico de Mérida Mukumbarí tickets ahead if possible. Arrange private transportation or reliable tour operators for all major transfers before arrival. Book accommodations in advance, especially in remote areas where options are limited. Consider booking complete packages through established Venezuelan tour operators who can handle logistics more reliably.

Packing Essentials

Bring reef-safe sunscreen, insect repellent, waterproof bags and phone cases, quick-dry clothing, hiking boots and water shoes, layers for varying altitudes (beach wear to warm jacket for Andes), rain jacket, reusable water bottle with purification system, headlamp, basic first aid kit, and all necessary medications. Pack US dollars in small bills as primary currency. Bring power bank for charging devices in remote areas.

Total Budget

$1,350-1,750 for 14 days (excluding international flights)

Customize Your Trip

Budget Version

Reduce costs by using public buses instead of private transfers where safe, staying in budget posadas and hostels, preparing some of your own meals, choosing group tours over private options, and spending more time in one region rather than covering extensive distances. Focus on either the coast or the Andes to minimize expensive travel days. Skip the Canaima package and instead explore more accessible areas like extended time in Morrocoy and Mochima, which offer spectacular beauty at lower cost.

Luxury Upgrade

Upgrade to boutique hotels and luxury lodges throughout, book private guides for all excursions, charter private flights to Canaima for more flexible scheduling, arrange private boat tours in all national parks, enjoy fine dining experiences in major cities, add spa treatments in Mérida, and include helicopter overflights of Angel Falls and the Gran Sabana. Consider adding Los Roques archipelago for exclusive island resort experiences and extend stays in each location for a more relaxed pace.

Family-Friendly

Focus on beach destinations like Morrocoy and Mochima which offer calm waters perfect for children. Replace strenuous hikes with easier nature walks and wildlife viewing. Consider skipping the Angel Falls expedition for younger children due to the long boat journey and basic facilities, instead spending more time in Mérida with cable car rides and gentle trails. Choose family-friendly accommodations with pools, book larger vehicles for comfort, and build in more rest days. Add visits to Waterland Mundo Marino for water park fun.
