TRAVELLING TO Bolivia

Why visit? An off the beaten track destination all of its own, with an enticing culture, head-spinning heights and rustic charm, Bolivia sure knows how to impress the adventurous explorer.

New Zealanders usually start their Bolivia tour in La Paz, the country’s administrative capital. There are only few cities in the world enjoying as spectacular a setting as La Paz, sitting in a valley atop the Bolivian plateau in the Andes Mountains.

No visit to Bolivia would be complete without seeing the astonishing Salar Uyuni, the largest salt flat in the world, with its endlessly sparkling horizon creating a fascinating visual spectacle.

Just like Bolivia boasts some of nature’s most incredible wonders, it is also a playground for wildlife lovers – whether it’s cuddling llamas in the Andes or swimming with the dolphins in the Amazon, a Bolivia tour can introduce you to a variety of unforgettable wildlife experiences.

Another favourite for many travellers on their Bolivia tour is Lake Titicaca where a scenic cruise to Sun Island, Moon Island and Copacabana is a spectacular way to take in the idyllic scenery this area is made of and its ancient ruins.

How to get there? The most direct route is flying via LATAM to Santiago and then connecting to La Paz. Please be aware, however, that there are only four flights a week between Santiago and La Paz. There are daily flights from Lima to La Paz and if combing Bolivia with Peru it is easier to access Bolivia from Peru.
