Why visit Bolivia?
Landlocked in the heart of the South America, this little country is home to some of the most untouched areas of the Amazon Rainforest. With numerous eco lodges, explore the many highlights and hidden gems, from colonial UNESCO World Heritage Sites to sprawling salt flats. In contrast to this steamy tropical jungle, be sure to see Lake Titicaca, the highest navigable lake in the world at 3,800 metres. With shorelines in both Bolivia and Peru, the lake is included in many holidays to Bolivia as well as Peru.

Bolivia's colonial towns and cities
Also not to be missed are the colonial towns of Sucre (a UNESCO world heritage site) and the silver mining centre of Potosi. Both are well-preserved examples of the country's Spanish past, and Sucre in particular has buildings dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries. La Paz too has much to interest visitors - Bolivia's largest city has lively traditional markets, museums, coffee shops and great views of snowy Mt Illimani on a clear day. Take your woollens though as the high altitude means its pretty cool year round.
Uyuni Salt Flats
For good reason it's difficult to find an advert for holidays in Latin America without an image of Bolivia's extraordinary Uyuni Salt Flats. Covering a vast area in southern Bolivia, the gleam from the miles of glistening salt crust mean that sunglasses and sun cream are essential as you travel across the flats by four-wheel drive. A trip out onto the flats with one of the new AirStream Campers is our top recommendation, as the experience of waking up to views that literally go on for miles is truly unique.
Bolivia holidays and tours
With its hauntingly beautiful rugged terrain and colourful indigenous customs and festivals, this is a fascinating country. There is more than enough to see and do on holidays to Bolivia to justify a trip here in its own right, however it can easily be combined with both Peru and Chile, as well as Argentina and Brazil.

What Our Clients Say
Thanks for a great trip - very well organised. Both your partners in Peru & Bolivia were excellent.
Throughly enjoyed the whole experience. Naila took on board all of my requirements and fears and put together a good package. .
A big thank you to all concerned with the most excellent arrangements for this adventure.
The organisation of the tour could not be faulted and your choice of partners in Peru & Bolivia were excellent. The visit to Machu Picchu was amazing but we didn't expect so many mosquitoes! After the long bus tour to Puno, it would have been good to have a day there to visit the floating island...
The Salar de Uyuni, the famous Salt Flats of Bolivia, is a totally surreal place. The landscape is nothing like anything I have ever seen before, or anywhere I have ever visited – and as a travel writer that is something that rarely happens. Travelling across the Salt Flats in a shiny airstrea...
What a country, so beautiful. Our guides were seriously fantastic. So many tourists were not taken to the Fish Island in the middle of the salt flats but Maribel insisted we were taken and it is more then dry enough and was amazing. Lake Titicaca is amazing and as for the 4x4 trip at the end, incred...
