Visited Venezuela for 7 days. Solid experience. Scene is quieter but worthwhile. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $54/day. Best part: ease of arranging.
Overall: 8.5/10. One of my favourites.
AMA.
Is Venezuela worth visiting?

What was your total spend roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

I was there in March and prices were great value.
Spent about $98/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: avoid weekends.

Did you use an agency or find girls at clubs?

Not sure I agree about that area. I found downtown to be better value.

Been going for years. The scene has shifted a bit but still good.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try negotiating next time.
