Bolivia is struggling to catch up to its Andean bedfellows Peru and Chile, and travel in this isolated land requires a relaxed and open mind. Yet, as our specialists will tell you, what Bolivia lacks in polish (and development), it makes up for in scenic splendour. The great white desert of the Salar de Uyuni salt flats is the first stop on most Bolivia tours, and our specialists will show you how to explore it to the full. But they’ll also steer you toward the flamingo-haunted lagoons and mud geysers of the southern altiplano or the Amazonian savannah of Madidi National Park on your holiday to Bolivia.
Bolivia has a largely indigenous culture, whose lifestyle and crafts have survived Spanish conquistador rule and modern commerce. Our specialists can help you experience it all first-hand, from a visit to La Paz’s witches’ market to breaking bread with Lake Titicaca’s island communities.
