Angel Falls
Morrocoy National Park
I think it's worth taking a small boat tour around the cays. You not only see lovely places, but some locals shared knowledge about the wildlife, which was a great bonus! Definitely a highlight for me.
El Avila National Park
My advice is to bring plenty of water and snacks. There are spots to buy food, but they can be pricey and might run out during busy hours.
Salto Angel
Make sure to wear good water-resistant shoes. I went in flip-flops and regretted every slippery step. Trust me you'll want something with grip!
Consider taking a guided tour. I thought I could do it alone, but having someone knowledgeable made my experience way richer. Plus, you get the inside scoop on the best spots!
If you're planning to do BASE jumping, double-check the weather beforehand. I missed out because the wind conditions were off. Do your research on guides who specialize in this!
Mount Roraima
I suggest packing light but bringing extra snacks! The treks can be long and you’ll be glad for that energy boost. I wish I had brought more granola bars instead of heavy meals.
I think it's worth considering a longer stay to explore the top of Roraima. I rushed it and felt like I missed some incredible spots. 2-3 days up there is key for a full experience!
East Park
Check out the petting zoo area if you can! It’s super cute but be aware it can get a bit crowded. I had to wait a while to get a pic with the goats!
Make sure to wear comfy shoes because there's quite a bit of walking involved. I wasn't prepared, and my feet were begging for mercy by the end of the day!
Mochima National Park
Vereda del Lago
If you can, visit on a weekday. It’s way less crowded, and you can enjoy the views without feeling rushed.
I suggest renting a bike; it’s a super fun way to explore the paths and see more of the area in less time.
Definitely bring some snacks and drinks! There aren’t many food stalls around, and it can get hot walking around the park.
Canaima
Sierra Nevada En La Mukuy Park
I recommend wearing comfortable hiking shoes. I wore regular sneakers and my feet were sore halfway through. Trust me, you’ll be grateful you chose the right footwear for those trails
My advice is to check the weather before you go. I got caught in an unexpected rain, and while it was refreshing, it was a bit of a hassle. Just be prepared with a light poncho or something!
