Beautiful

The city was absolutely beautiful from the teleferico as we went up and then came back down. The top of El Avila was nice, it kind of reminded me of the mountain tops at home in Tennessee in the summer.

a must when visiting caracas.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/03/05
Having visited Venezuela at least on 12 different occasions, i would say that an absolute must while in Caracas is to visit El Teleferico. The ride up to El Avila (the +6000ft mountain peak) gives an spectacular view of Caracas, and presents a great afternoon in the mountains which surround the valley of Caracas. There are a 2-3 good restaurants ...

I walk to the top and went down on the teleferico!
By ricardosotor, 09/26/05
I have no problems at all saying the the avila mountain is one of the greatest places on earth... Let my tell you which is the best way to enjoy it: Get to the "Avila Magica Park" walking (it takes about 7 hours) and you will enjoy the best views in the workd. Then (to protect your knees!) take the teleferico, by far one of the best in ...

A MUST!
By g_troop36, 11/12/05
Excellent cable cars take you on a beautiful ride up to the top. The views are spectacular, the temperatures range from cool to chilly! At the top, hire a jeep(inexpensive) to take you to the village of Gallipan. There you will find a great little restaurant serving delicious food (Fondues, Steaks). The view from the restaurant is beyond words!

Great day, amazing night! Good service, good restaurants, a must if you are in Caracas. Price is ok, could be cheaper, but it is clean, organized, nice, and safe.
