Angel Falls, the world's highest uninterrupted waterfall, is located in Venezuela's Canaima National Park. Accessibility is limited, typically requiring a flight to Canaima followed by a river trip, often in a dugout canoe, making it less accessible for those with mobility issues. Guided tours are strongly recommended due to the remote location and need for local expertise. The best time to visit is during the wet season (May to November) when the rivers are deep enough for navigation; during the dry season, boat trips may be impossible. A trip can be costly, involving flights, accommodation in Canaima, and tour fees. A typical visit, including travel to and from the falls, usually takes 2-3 days. Solo travel is highly discouraged due to safety and logistical concerns.
