Venezuela
About Canaima for Solo Travelers
The world's highest waterfall drops 979m off a sandstone tepui in a landscape that inspired Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Lost World — one of earth's most extraordinary natural wonders for solo adventurers willing to navigate Venezuela.
Solo Travel Tips· Experienced Solo
Canaima National Park and Angel Falls (world's highest waterfall) require organised tours and are accessed by small plane from Caracas or Ciudad Bolívar — solo travelers join group tours that handle all logistics. The tepui landscape is genuinely other-worldly. The security situation in Venezuela requires thorough research and a local guide company before any visit. This is for experienced, well-prepared solo travelers only.
