November - April

By December the dry season is in full swing, with less rain and warm temperatures which hover in the mid twenties. This is an ideal time for outdoor activities: ascend the magnificent Mount Roraima over the course of five days and discover the unique ecosystem that thrives on its tabletop summit.

Angel Falls

May - October

May is the beginning of the wet season, with more frequent rain and heavier cloud coverage which can obscure views of the tepuys and waterfalls. Temperatures do not change much, hovering in the mid twenties. Following many dry months, Angel Falls is just a trickle in May, but between August – September the watery cascade is full and dramatic.
