How Safe is Caracas for Travelors currently?

How safe is Caracas currently for the avevare travelor?if you use common sense and dont go into shanty towns are you still at great risk?
is public transport safe?
Thanks

Common sense is the key for stay safe

Dont go to poor zones of caracas and you will be fine.

Dont worry...

Mi boyfriend is from argentina and he visit venezuela days a go and he doesnt feel in danger.

sorry for my english

It probably isnt. I have friends in Venzuela and they say if you are a US Citizen you should probably stay home since Chavez has villified the US so much.

It is not safe, I live in Caracas. (sorry if i don麓t write very good but my native language is Spanish and i have difficulties with English) You are safe in an airport. When you get to the exit there are a lot of men asking if you want transport (taxi). Public transport is not always safe, try to travel with more people so you are not the only one.

Once i was in a Macdonals, taking something from my car when a man came to me, I knew he wanted to steal me something so I came running to the police.

Once a friend told me that he was in a bus when a man with a gun came into it and stealed some money but nothing else happened. You are in risk in a lot of places but if you don麓t wear expensive things you are safe. But as in every city there are places that are more dangerous than others. You can be calm in places like commercial centers or other public places that involve been inside a building. Be careful and good luck!!

Although there are other parts of Venezuela that are very good to visit like La Gran Sabana or el Salto Angel

unfortunately, hermano. latin america is not so safe. chavez is a dog who has discredited america alot. there are very dangerous things in caracas, there are gangs that will get you for nothing. we latinos are very agressive, sorry to say, if you are american beware amigo, publuic transporantion is the worse, the most poor ppl are the taxi drivers, they will try to rob our. there are decent ppl in caracas, but you have to be carefull
