Reasons To
Visit Bolivia

  • Salar de Uyuni

    Without a doubt one of the most stunning areas of South America- surreal rock formations, the vast salt flats, jewel coloured lakes, and you can have it almost to yourself!

  • History

    Although not as famous as neighbouring Peru, Bolivia has some interesting Inca and pre-Inca ruins. Sucre is a must to visit for the beautiful white washed architecture, and Potosi to learn about Bolivia's colourful history.

    History

  • Indigenous Cultures

    Indigenous people are in the majority in Bolivia, unlike in many other countries, so it's a good place to learn more about traditional cultures and you will see many people dressed in traditional clothing.

  • Jungle

    A short flight from La Paz will take you into the steamy Amazon basin to spot monkeys, birds, sloth and even pink river dolphin, and also to interact with the local communities.

  • Lake Titicaca

    Spanning both Peru and Bolivia, Lake Titicaca is one of the continent's most iconic locations, believed to be the birthplace of the Incas. Enjoy the myths, views, sunsets and traditional cultures from the relaxed Sun Island.

  • Markets

    Bolivia is a great place to buy traditional handicrafts. Textiles in Sucre are particularly good or browse the stalls of the Witches' Market in La Paz for souvenirs ranging from jewellery to a llama foetus!

  • Off the beaten track

    Bolivia remains one of the lesser visited countries in South America, and tourism infrastructure is a lot more limited than in neighbouring countries, but this only adds to the appeal for an authentic taster of Latin America.

Hotel Tayka del Desierto

The Southern Altiplano

Ideally located for visits to the lagoons of the region, the Hotel del Desierto is the only real option in the area and just 40 minutes from Laguna Colorada.

It is a small lodge literally in the middle of nowhere with capacity for 47 guests in basic but comfortable rooms. There are solar panels on the roof that generate electricity and hot water in the evenings.

The property was built by four local families and is very much in tune with its environment, with friendly service and local food.
