Day 1 - Vibrant Visions of Caracas

We kick off the first day in the heart of Venezuela, Caracas – a city with a thriving arts scene, lively nightlife and unique modern architecture. Start your day with a visit to the Fine Arts Museum showcasing indigenous artwork, followed by the Botanical Garden exhibiting Venezuela's vibrant flora and fauna. In the evening, stroll around the bustling Altamira neighborhood tasting traditional Arepas (a must in Venezuela, wouldn't you agree?) and dancing to the rhythmic beats of local music.

Day 2 - Marvel at Merida's Mountains

A scenic 1-hour flight from Caracas will bring us to Merida on Day 2. Set amidst the glorious Andean Mountains, Merida is perfect for outdoor activities. Experience a thrilling journey on the Teleferico - the world's longest and highest cable car, viewing stunning natural beauty. Later, relish a homely meal at a local's house, getting a taste of the local culture, literally! Remember, it's a day to soak in the region's majestic landscapes and rich tradition.

Day 3 - Communion with Nature in Los Roques

Wave goodbye to the mountains as we jet off to the tranquil archipelago of Los Roques. Immerse yourself in the island's pristine beaches, its clear blue waters perfect for snorkeling and a plethora of marine life. Don't forget to hike up the El Palafito for a mesmerizing sunset view. Would you pass up an opportunity to witness such nature's spectacle?

Day 4 - Island Indulgence continues in Los Roques

Let's make the most of our island stay, shall we? Today the sea beckons us again for more snorkeling, swimming, and bird watching. Try your hand at fishing or simply laze on the beach with a book, it's a day to relax and enjoy the island's tranquility. Don't miss the chance to savor fresh lobster from local eateries. After all, you're in a seafood paradise!

Day 5 - Historical Endeavors in Coro

Board a flight to Coro, a UNESCO World Heritage site displaying Spanish, Dutch, and indigenous architectural influences. Spend the day exploring its well-preserved colonial buildings like the Cathedral of Santa Ana and The Bicentennial Museum. The city shines distinctly under the evening glow, don't you think?

Day 6 - Lagoon Love at Mochima National Park

Our journey takes us to Mochima National Park on Day 6. Intriguing inlets, hidden coves, and picturesque white sand beaches mark the Park's beauty. Go sailing on a yacht, swim with the dolphins or take a dive trip if you dare. A trip to Playa Colorada, known for its red-hued sands, is a must! Who can resist that call of the sea?

Day 7 - Canaima National Park: A journey into the wild

We round off our Venezuelan odyssey with a visit to Canaima National Park. Home to the magnificent Angel Falls, the Park's diverse ecosystems make it a paradise for naturalists.
