The dimensions of time and space in Bolivia are unlike any other country in South America. The geography changes quickly from challenging highlands, to peaceful valleys, to exuberant tropics, and traveling around the country is like taking a journey back in time. Being the most indigenous country in South America and with more than half of the population still living according to traditional ways, Bolivia’s vibrant culture is heavily influenced by the centuries old traditions and reflects a long and rich heritage, offering a genuine glimpse into South American life.
The pristine environment, smiling people, fresh and delicious cuisine, need to be experienced to understand why Bolivia is a truly exceptional destination.
We have an 11-day itinerary that showcases all the best experiences that Bolivia has to offer – its rich legacy, its mosaic of cultures, its dramatically diverse topography, and its warm and hospitable people.

On your mine visit, learn about the basic conditions of the workers, and learn more about the industry, which was a primary source of income for the city in the past.
