Posts: 159Now I have to add that even the "nice" areas, especially in a city like Caracas, are never entirely safe. A few years ago I got my cell phone robbed at gunpoint while waiting for public transport in one of the main avenues of my city, in commercial area with people walking around, in plain daylight. Of course, in that occassion I was caught like an idiot talking with my phone in the open (I didn't even notice the guy with the gun at first), which is a big no-no. So yeah, common sense. I always say this, dress as plain as possible, ideally a t-shirt, jeans, and sneakers; no gold chains or watches, and bring the cheapest possible low-mid tier phone with you (which make no mistake, will still be envy of many). All the bling you need get a girl in this place is the knowledge that you are a foreigner with cash.

Contrary to what the news is reporting you will not be kidnapped, drugged, or immediately shot when exiting the plane in Venezuela. Common sense is what it takes. Really anywhere in the world you go. Probably even in your home town. In Caracas there are nice areas and not so nice areas. In your home town would you walk around the not so nice areas in the middle of the night,. Probably not. Same thing applies in Caracas. People ask this question all the time about, Venezuela, El Salvador, Honduras, Haiti etc. I have been to all of these places many many times and never had an issue. In fact to the contrary. Some of the nicest and most helpful people I have ever met was in Venezuela and other countries you would never think.
When visiting anywhere I just used basic common sense and don't look for trouble.

Posts: 9Safe nowadays?
Hi,
I consider myself to be a smart traveller. How safe is it to be in Venezuela nowadays? There are too many conflicting reports online.

They are having a revolution if you haven't been reading the news.
