It’s important to know for people who consider to travel to Bolivia that tourism is still much less developed in Bolivia than in its neighboring countries. A flexible mindset is needed and there is less availability of good quality hotels and services. But on the other hand, you won’t see millions of other tourists and you will be captured by Bolivia’s authenticity and local flavor.
Most people who travel with us to Bolivia do it in combination with a trip to Peru. Bolivia and Peru are relatively easily connected by air, land and even by boat over the Lake Titicaca.
One place that should not to be missed on your trip to Bolivia are the scenic saltflats of Uyuni, which make you feel like you’re in heaven!
