Description:
The city, Puerto Ayacucho, exists since 1924 and lies on the upper course of Orinoco River. It looks more like a province and missionary center of the region rather than a meaningful trading place.

Undertaking:
- We recommend visiting the Indian museum located in the center (Museo Etnológico de Amazonas) and the plazas with its indian markets, which are right before the museum. Lots of things, made by the indian themselves, are going to be sold everyday in the market.
- Tobogan de la Selva (natural slide)
- border town Casuaritos & National Park (Colombia)
- Fish- or boat tour on the Orinoco River or in his neighbor rivers
- Over flight over the Autana Tepuy
