Tour Highlights

Welcome to Caracas, the capital of Venezuela! At the designated time, our journey begins with a free tour through the historic center of Caracas, starting next to the Mausoleum of Simon Bolivar and the National Pantheon.

Beginning with an introduction to the liberator's history and the other esteemed figures resting in the pantheon, we'll then proceed to Avenida Norte. Along this extensive boulevard, we'll admire the exteriors of two colonial houses: the Casa de Estudio de la Historia de Venezuela, dedicated to Lorenzo A. Mendoza Quintero, and the Casa de las Primeras Letras Simón Rodríguez.

Situated near the corner of Veroes and Urdaneta Avenue, this segment explores the significance of the street before continuing our walk to the neo-Gothic Basílica Menor de la Santa Capilla, known for its distinct colors.

Next, we visit Plaza Bolivar, where we observe the Cathedral of Caracas, the Museum of Natural History, and the Casa Amarilla. Concluding our tour, we'll pass by the Caracas Museum, wrapping up our free tour in front of Simon Bolivar's Birthplace after approximately three hours and 40 minutes.
