Detailed Trip Description

ome people are looking for something really different or want to take a special kind of trip — bird watching, diving, or a tour of the high points — that is simply VIP all the way. If this is what you are looking for, then this is your tour! Visit the second largest national park in Venezuela, which astonishes visitors with the drama of its spectacular landscapes and biological diversity. Its signature landmarks are the tepuis, unique rock formations that rise up out of the surroundings to create huge ecological islands (the most famous, Roraima, inspired Conan Doyle's novel, The Lost World) punctuated by waterfalls, including Angel Falls, the planet’s highest. In 1994, Canaima National Park was declared a World Heritage Site. Visit two of the most renown Caribbean destinations in Venezuela – Los Roques National Park and Isla Margarita
