Mindful meoweler tips

Get ready for the heat

Caracas is hot and humid year-round, so cats should bring plenty of water and keep to shaded areas during the day.

Experience the local cuisine

Venezuelan food is a mix of African, European, and indigenous influences. Try some arepas, cachapas, and empanadas from street vendors.

Beware of safety issues

Caracas has a high crime rate, especially at night. Be cautious and avoid walking alone or in sketchy areas. The currency exchange rate is also unstable, so use caution when using local currency.

Explore the art scene

Caracas has a thriving art scene with numerous museums and galleries displaying works by local and international artists. Don't miss the Museum of Contemporary Art.

Take a cable car ride

The Avila Cable Car offers magnificent views of Caracas and the surrounding mountains. It operates Fridays through Sundays and is a popular attraction.
