Michael Palin ventures into one of South America's most diverse and least-explored nations, travelling from the Caribbean coast through dense Amazonian rainforest to the dramatic peaks of the Andes. Along the way, he encounters a country of extraordinary contrasts: bustling cities and remote indigenous villages, stunning natural wonders and complex political realities.
With his trademark curiosity and gentle humour, Palin reveals a Venezuela far beyond the headlines. From the world's highest waterfall to the vast plains of the Llanos, he captures both the warmth of the Venezuelan people and the challenges they face. This is an engaging portrait of a remarkable country, told with the wit and insight that have made Palin's travel writing so beloved.
