Destination Highlights This jungle destination in southeastern Venezuela, still largely unexplored and full of magic and legends, embraces the white and black rivers of the Amazons; the highest waterfall in the world; the delta of the legendary Orinoco River; the Warao Indians; and the Gran Sabana — home to the earth’s most ancient rocks and inspiration for Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Lost World.
Located in southern Venezuela, Guayana is a vast expanse of tall primary rainforest, rich gallery forests, and majestic tepuis (great table mountains that surge out of nearly treeless savannas). It is a landscape as spellbinding as it is distinctive.
Visit Canaima National Park, the second largest in Venezuela and one of the largest in the world. It is a unique bio-geological entity, with 65% of its surface covered by tepui formations punctured by the tallest waterfalls in the planet.
