Is Caracas Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Caracas is in Venezuela, not Trinidad and Tobago, and it is generally known for high crime rates, ranging from petty theft to more serious violent crimes. Law enforcement resources are limited in potential response to emergencies. In Trinidad and Tobago, there can be occasional instances of petty crime as well as isolated incidents of more serious crimes. Traveling after dark, especially alone, may increase your risk. Always exercise extra vigilance, adopt security measures including keeping your personal belongings secure and choosing reliable transportation. Try sticking to tourist-populated areas and avoid exploring isolated areas.
