Angel Falls πππ In the heart of the country, where table top mountains rise up like giant monoliths from the surrounding landscape, is Angel Falls. Dropping 979 meters, it is the highest waterfall in the world and one of the highlights of South America. This stunning site in Canaima National Park is remote and difficult to access, but flights over the falls are easily arranged. The best time to see the falls is during the rainy season, between May and November, when water is plentiful and the falls do not disappear into a mist before reaching the bottom as they do in the dry season. During the dry season, the falls may be little more than a trickle and you will want to check in advance to see if there is enough water to make the trip worthwhile. The falls are usually visited by either a sightseeing flight or a three-day boat trip beginning in the town of Canaima. The boat trip, which also includes a hike through the jungle to the base of the falls, is not a luxury tour by any stretch, with basic accommodation along the route. The boat trip may not be possible during the dry season due to low water levels in the river. Flights over the falls depart from many towns and cities and can be arranged from various places, including Caracas, Ciudad BolΓvar, Santa Elena, or Isla Margarita, as well as other major cities, although usually with a connecting flight #Venezuela

I was in Canaina's town in 2013, but I lost the opportunity to visit the imponent natural monument. The day was rainy, so we don't flight on top of the Angel Falls. Only I enjoyed the lagoon and leap of the toad.
