Tourism growth in Venezuela

Overview

Tourism in Venezuela is experiencing a period of growth and resurgence. Initially, the trend was characterized by a rise in ecotourism and nature-based travel, with local and international interest driving a focus on low-impact practices like bird watching and guided hiking. This movement has created economic opportunities for remote regions through traditional gastronomy and community-based lodging, though authorities have faced difficulties regulating visitor numbers to protect ecosystems.

As the trend continues, Venezuela’s hospitality ecosystem is showing a visible recovery, supported by specialized charter connections. Key destinations attracting travelers include Angel Falls in Canaima, Los Roques, and Isla de Margarita. While the country currently accounts for between 1.5% and 3.0% of total international visitor arrivals in South America, the resurgence of interest in its natural landmarks remains a notable development.
