From a nature perspective, all countries in Latin America are absolutely jaw-dropping but Venezuela has the added benefit that it’s incredibly raw, more than any other country in the continent, for the simple reason that few foreigners have traveled there within the last few decades.
From thick jungle to pristine Caribbean beaches, Andean Mountains and massive flooded plains, this two-week itinerary will take you through the many different faces and geographical regions the country is composed of, without never losing the human interactions our expeditions are famous for.
Join us on this epic expedition to Venezuela.
