Orinoco and the Lost World
Angel Falls & Roraima
After arriving in Caracas you head straight out to Ciudad Bolivar from where your overflight of the highest waterfall in the world - Angel Falls ' begins. Then you head to the south-eastern corner of this huge country to explore the mysterious world of the Tepuys - enormous flat-topped mountains with sheer sides. The most famous of these is Roraima on the border between Guyana, Venezuela and Brazil.
Summit & Orinoco
The plateau on the top of the Tepuy has many strange plants and wildlife, stranded as if on an island in the ocean and you'll spend a day exploring. After descending and passing some stunning scenery and waterfalls you finish on the Orinoco Delta where you canoe on one of the biggest rivers on the continent.
