@Marco:

I think that some Americans are afraid to visit your beautiful country because -- as you know -- the relations between your government and the American government are not too friendly.

I'm from Guatemala, so I would like to go there someday. Caracas its a such a great city to exploore.... what can I say about Venezuelan beaches? very nice places and landscapes. Venezuelan food looks tasty and delicious!! especially arepas :))))

Maybe some people think Venezuelan bad things about Venezuela and other Latin America's countries for the crime rates and unsafety situation..... but actually that's the effect of the sensationalism of TV news. Anyways who cares?? every single person with common sense know violence is everywhere, even in the "first world countries" tourists go to New York and there's one of the highest crime rates in U.S.

I want to know Venezuela and Venezuelans they're very cool and nice people very supportive and polite with foreigners. So take care man :)

Claire, some officers police from Latin America accept bribes to get easy money or to don't have problems with the law.

I want to know that why are you so said the police officer?  Gustavo and Alberto P,I can't understand the situation,and I very confused that the police officer robbed Gustavo 10 dollars .

I know that Margarita Island is very beautiful but people scare by the police: many police officers are corrupts and the government is hiding that problem.
