What people love about touring Bolivia solo
We had an absolute blast on this tour. We got to see so many incredible places in Bolivia! From the stunning salt flats of Uyuni, to the Spanish colonialism of Sucre, to the breathtaking expanse of Titicaca. Highly recommend! At every stop the guides were local, passionate, knowledgeable and dedicated to making sure it was a positive experience. Each of them went out of their way to make it special for us. Furthermore, the coordination (which is crucial for a trip of this many stops) was excellent. All transfers arrived on time, all vehicles were comfortable and modern, and even when we requested changes, the company was flexible and adapted the itinerary accordingly. We’re leaving with incredibly fond memories - thanks guys!
Bolivia - Villazón, Uyuni, Potosí, Sucre, La Paz & Copacabana- 8 days
- 10 Days Bolivian Multicultural Highlights
This is my second tour with this company, both have been positive and unique experiences that will remain with me for a very long time. Bolivia is an amazing country, but also complex, and I was pleased that I was able to accomplish as much in seeing the vast countryside of Bolivia. I appreciated that the company was sensitive to my desire to engage as much as possible with indigenous groups and could custom the tour to meet my expectations. Unfortunately, I could not complete the entire trip because I got quite sick from the altitude and made the decison to settle for four of the six days, which fully met my expectations. I also appreciate the sensitivity by the Tour company to accommodate me in addressing my health concerns.. My tour guide was also well-versed on a wide range of topics from anthropology to history and archaeology, making the trip so much more interesting. This tour is perfect for anyone who really wants to be fully engaged in learning about indigenous communities, their customs and living conditions in the wilderness along with capturing the beauty of Bolivia terrain, especially the spectacular views at the Isla del Sol and the Tikicaca Lake.
