What travelers are saying

"We started planning our South Africa and Kenya Safaris 2 years in advance and could never get our questions answered by A&K representatives. The piles and piles of traveler information that A&K sent us was old and a lot of it incorrect. TAUCK customers that we talked to were taken care of. We were not. Our trip to Robben Island in Cape Town was never booked and we have not received a refund. A&K would not tell us our flight information for all the planes within Africa we were taking. We always travel first class yet they booked economy for us and then wanted to charge us change fees and penalties when we tried to change to first class which was available. We bought first class tickets but A&K will not refund the ticket price. If the trip were free, I would not travel with them again"

What travelers are saying

"I took the most amazing tour across Portugal and Spain through Bestway Tours last year. It was a 10 day tour visiting historic cities across the countries and was blown away by level of service and convenience the team provided. I've learned so much through the knowledgeable tour guides and enjoyed lots of delicious local food. I cannot wait to take another Bestway Tour in the future!"

La Paz, Uyuni

Highlights

  • If you've ever dreamt of walking on water (well, at least on a lake), this is your chance. cross the epic white expanse of bolivia's salt lakes in a 4wd with a local guide
  • You know those trippy photos of tiny travellers standing on spoons and skateboards? they were probably taken on the salar de uyuni. so get snap-happy and start bending some perspectives. remember, there is no spoon...
  • Where does a train go when it dies? to a graveyard of course! pay your respects to the rusty, abandoned trains at uyuni's eerie train cemetery
  • Step inside a surrealist painting as you explore the rocky isla wasi. rising out of the salt pans and covered with giant cacti, this is not your run-of-the-mill island. it is way cooler

Bolivia Tour Selection Trips

  • Hundreds of local tour companies try to capitalize on Bolivia's surreal beauty. On one hand, this means you will have plenty of options to choose from a wide range of activities. Deciding between all of these options can be difficult, however, which is where Stride's useful compare feature can come in handy!
  • Local transport can be a drag in Bolivia, one that often involves extremely long bus rides. Minimize transfer times by planning ahead and choosing a single reputable tour company for all aspects of your trip.  
  • US Passport holders will need a visa to visit Bolivia, though visas on arrival are available.
  • Exploring the jungle here is less expensive than neighboring, more well-known countries, but choosing the right tour operator is key -- there are a number of shady outfitters. Be sure to look at all of the Bolivia tour operators and tour reviews when deciding which company to choose. 

Additional details

How safe is Bolivia?

  • As of December 2019, Bolivia is in a level 4 Travel Advisory

There can be some safety concerns while traveling to Bolivia, but playing it smart is the best way to try to prevent problems from arising. Most of the crime is petty. Transportation can be unreliable, because of strikes. Pickpocket risks are high, so you’re better off keeping money and valuable items in hidden pockets, and leaving the bag at home.

There have been cases of mugging, where tourists are taken to an ATM and demanded to withdraw money. Make sure to use reputable services (such as taxis). Persons can pose as police officers and demand money, but an official officer will not do this. A copy of your passport with a proper visa is enough.

While it’s exciting to meet the locals, be cautious about who you speak with, as this can be a trap for petty crime. Traveling with a tour group can help ease some of the safety worries of traveling to Bolivia. You’ll have a tour guide that speaks the language, knows which places are safe, and can help figure out safe plans if a safety issue arises.

Note – as of December 2019, Bolivia is in a level 4 Travel Advisory, meaning do not travel. Civil unrest is occurring, from the demonstrations, strikes, and marches happening in major cities across Bolivia. Protests block major infrastructure and transportation hubs. Crowd control measures have been used during violent confrontations. Road travel is often impeded, and some flights (both domestic and international) have been delayed and/or cancelled.

Bolivia packing suggestions

One of the most important things you pack is proof of a yellow fever vaccine depending on what region of Bolivia you are traveling to. While not all places require the vaccine verification, it’s better to have it on hand rather than show up and get turned away. If you’re going to the salt flats, you’ll definitely need sunglasses.

The reflections are extremely bright, and you want to protect your eyes. The reflection can be painful and even cause damage to eyes, so make sure the lenses have UV protection and they are dark. As mentioned above with the safety issues, a travel wallet that can be hidden is important.

Bolivia is known for it’s high altitude, and the adjustment can be difficult for some travelers. Bring some medicine that will help with high altitude sickness. The water isn’t safe to drink either, so bringing some form of a water filter is crucial for Bolivian travel.

Is English spoken in Bolivia?

English is not widely spoken in Bolivia. Of course, you’re more likely to find people who speak English in the bigger cities, such as La Paz and sucre, and on tours to the major tourist destinations. If you stay in these areas, you’ll be mostly okay. If you expand out to smaller cities and towns in Bolivia, it’s important you know some Spanish, or it’ll make traveling more difficult.
