Caracas

Just a stone’s throw south of the Caribbean shores, the cosmopolitan cityscape of Caracas stands in the shadow of the mighty Pico el Avila, engulfed in a cacophony of purring scooters and tooting traffic horns. In many ways the metropolis is Venezuela writ small; a place of high-energy, unfettered passions, yet curiously laid back in its own Latin American way.
Follow the quintessential Caracas tour guide itinerary by starting at the iconic La Plaza Bolivar, with its honorific monument to the country’s revered revolutionary. Then seek out the UNESCO-attested buildings of the Universidad Central de Venezuela, and wander through the leafy gardens of the Parque del Este, before exploring the soaring mountain summit at the Waraira Repano Park.
Foodies will feel magnetised to the eateries of Las Mercedes, Altamira and Castellana, the former booming with Venezuelan steaks and traditional pabellón criollo, the last a testimony to this city’s cosmopolitan culinary flair, complete with sushi joints and Italian trattorias. After dark, join the throngs of caraqueños to party full throttle, as the city’s bouncing samba bars and swish super clubs emerge from their daytime camouflage amidst the streets.
