Our Bolivia
specialists
Landlocked Bolivia can be daunting to navigate, but we’ll use our experience travelling the country to ensure your trip runs smoothly. Crossing Bolivia aboard trains, planes and automobiles (as well as a hydrofoil), our consultants know the best routes and modes of transport to suit every need. On the ground, our fantastic La Paz-based Concierge is only a WhatsApp away, so you’ll always be supported and have access to insider intel and local recommendations. We know Bolivia’s surrounding countries inside out, too, so if you want to travel by boat into Peru, or overland into Chile and Argentina, we’ve got your adventure covered.
What you can find in Bolivia that you won't find anywhere else?
The colourful Bolivian people, mostly Aymara and Quechua Indians, continue to follow ways of life little changed in hundreds of years. Of particular interest is the indigenous culture in the Altiplano and round Lake Titicaca, the highest navigable lake in the world, which, visited from Bolivia, allows the chance to meet the Uros Indians on their floating islands.
Special Things to Do in Bolivia
At El Alto, the Altiplano plateau drops dramatically 1300ft into a rocky canyon and to the city of La Paz. In the shadow of Mount Illimani, it is a city of cobbled streets and markets selling anything and everything. Elswhere, in the remote south-west corner of Bolivia, are salt lakes and high altitude deserts. El Salar de Uyuni is the largest and highest salt lake in the world. The Laguna Colorada attracts flamingos whose pink hues contrast with a shoreline of brilliant white salt and deposits of gypsum. The dark green waters of Laguna Verde, in the shadow of the Licancabur volcano are yet another contrast in this surreal landscape, reminiscent of a Dali painting.
