Transportation Services

The American Citizen Services unit has compiled the following list of transportation providers. The list is not meant to be exhaustive or definitive, nor does it represent either a guarantee of competence or endorsement by the Department of State or the American Embassy. It does indicate that the American community has utilized them in the past. Traveler input, both positive and negative, regarding experiences with local transportation companies, is always welcome and provides additional information to assist in expanding or revising this list.

If you are calling from the U.S. all numbers need to be preceded by the international dialing code (011) and country code for Venezuela (58).

Cell phone numbers in Venezuela begin with a 4 (414, 416, 412,) and if being dialed from within Venezuela must be preceded by a 0.

Land line numbers within the greater Caracas area begin with 212. If you are dialing a land line from within the greater Caracas area you need not dial the 212, you need only dial the 7 digit number (this includes when dialing from the airport). If you are dialing a greater Caracas land line number from outside the greater Caracas area then you need to dial 0212.
