Trip Highlights:
  • One of the most popular Tepuys (table top mountains) in Venezuela is Roraima.
  • It allows you to step into its mysterious land with amazing geological formations, unique and endemic species, at a point where three countries meet: Brazil, Guiana and Venezuela.
  • All its spectacular landscapes, with orchids, rainforest, and giant stone formations will stimulate your imagination You will start to find different shapes in the formations, enjoy the amazing views, camp in unforgettable caves, and hear around the campfire legends drifting on the wind.
  • Explore the paradise for nature lovers. Arrive in the Quartz Valley and head to El Abismo. It’s like being in a different world, the night sky with no light pollution, no city sounds. Just lay down in your sleeping bag and enjoy the stars, rest on the mother land, the most ancient lands on the planet, and feel the energy.
  • Live this experience by hiking and trekking to the summit.  This is one of the most popular and known treks in Latin America and requires walking for around 5 hours per day, but each time that you finish a day, you will know that it was worth it!
