[2025 Gran Sabana Attraction] Travel Guide for Canaima National Park (Updated Apr)

The Guiana Highlands, a World Heritage Site in Venezuela, South America, is a place where the lost world of the dinosaur era unfolds. The most famous tourist spot there is Angel Falls (Salto Ángel in Spanish). The waterfall, which flows down from the top of a table mountain boasting a height of 1 km, is famous for not having a pool because it turns into mist at the end due to its enormous length. To get there, you first travel to Canaima National Park, join a local tour, travel up the river in about half a day, and then travel to the base camp. It is common to sleep in a hammock at the base camp. From there, you can trek to the waterfall below the pool! Furthermore, if you have the budget, you can experience a sightseeing flight in a Cessna at Canaima Airport. You can book it on-site (it used to cost about $100). The view of Table Mountain from above is extremely exciting. The captain will circle over the waterfall with great enthusiasm. It is also impressive to see the Lost World from above. #OverseasTravelRecord #Venezuela #AmazingView #SecretLand #WorldHeritage

I stayed in Canaima for a night before heading to Angel Falls, and it was totally worth it. The town is small but beautiful, surrounded by lush jungle and scenic rivers. The local villages are so friendly, and the vibe is really relaxed. I loved how close you feel to nature there. We took a tour around the local falls and the riverbed, which was a highlight. The falls were stunning, and the boat ride through the jungle was a cool adventure. The area is peaceful, and the views are just incredible. Staying overnight gave me a chance to really soak in the area before the big trek to Angel Falls. It felt like a perfect introduction to the wild, and I’m so glad I spent that extra time in Canaima. It’s not just a stop—it’s a place worth exploring in its own right. #internationaltravel #venezuela #waterfall
