A single ride on the metro is 0,5 Bs.F (June 2008), but if you are planning to travel more you can buy a Multiabono with ten rides for 4,5 Bs.F. There is a long metro line going from east to west, and there is another one going from Caricuao in the southwest . Another line is going from the south, past the university.
The metro is convenient to use. There are frequent trains and they are air-conditioned. You should guard your bags though, and if you have a backpack you should carry it in the front. The metro can be very crowded, especially at rush hour. A friend of mine told me that sometimes he has to wait for the next train, or even a third train, to be able to go inside, but at rush hour the next train comes just after the other.

To move in Caraca's city, you can do it easily by subway.
It can take you to any point in the city, just be careful with the pickpocket and be aware that most of the time it is too crowded.
Schedule: From 5:30 to 23:00

The better form of transportation in Caracas is it the Metro system. It is Easy to identify where you want to go, it is very clean and nice and you will find more than one great works of art at outside the stations.
Also you have MetroBuses that will take you were the Metro do not go.
Danger: After the sun come down at 6:00 pm, take a taxi or drive. It is not safe the streets

If you want to go around Caracas you should take the Metro, you can go almost anywhere on it. And if you want to go somewhere else without metro station you should ask about the metrobus, which is a metro service that goes to the places the subway can´t go. I´m sorry for the picture but it´s forbidden to take pictures inside the station

Though limited Caracas has a metro system and its considered to be safe. But since its not connected to airport, its less likely you get to use them while on a short trip.

Take the Metro (subway) to get there. It the fastest and most secure way to get where you are going.
