- Bolivia Highlights
Bolivia is my favorite country in South America thanks to Gonzalo and Intrepid Travel! Gonzalo our guide showed the best and brightest the country had to offer. He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. There is so much more to this country than just the salt flats!!! I was one of ten people on this trip so it was great to have such a small group which made it feel less like a 'tour.' Intrepid has consistently showed me the smallest group size out of any other company i've traveled with which i really appreciate!
- 5 Days Uyuni Salt Flats and Colorfull Lagoons from La Paz, Bolivia
An utterly "other worldy" experience! First day on Salt Flats was great - but only really after we left the over crowded bit where all the single day visitors congregate. Once out on the salt flats it became interesting and the sun set experience was beautiful. But then came the second day when we headed south towards the Chili frontier and all the volcanoes and weird scenery. This was like I would imagine a trip to Mars. The red, green and blue lagoons with their unique Flamingo populations, the high altitude desert, the walk across the live volcano caldera at 4900m with bubbling mud and water. It was telling that all of the group found Day 2 more stunning than the Day 1 on the Salt Flats, stunning as that was too. Biggest negative of the trip was the night bus down from La Paz. Seriously uncomfortable. But, the service and attitude of Jose Angulo and his team at the Joker Expedition Office and Hotel was exceptional. He organised our return flights instead of having to use the night bus again. Drove us the airport and provided a free night in one of his Hotel rooms in place of the night bus. I strongly recommend Joker Expedition (591 73336307) if you want a good contact for Tours and Accommodation in Uyuni.

Machu Picchu stands as the crowning jewel of Andean experiences, where our travelers consistently tell us that photographs simply can't capture its true scale and majesty. The ancient Inca citadel reveals itself differently throughout the day as clouds drift past, creating an almost mystical atmosphere that leaves visitors spellbound. The Inca Trail journey itself has become legendary among our customers - it's a genuine mountain adventure with challenging ascents, ancient stone pathways and nights spent camping under star-filled skies. Our guides, who share deep knowledge of Inca history and local ecology, have earned particular praise for turning what could be just a tough trek into an enriching cultural experience. Travelers often describe how the changing ecosystems along the trail, from cloud forests to alpine grasslands, create a sense of walking through multiple worlds in just a few days.

Travel Bolivia your way
Bolivia's active routes range from moderate walks to proper challenges, with the 5-day Uyuni circuit being our most popular choice. Day two gets better ratings than day one - that's when you head toward Chile through landscapes that look like Mars, with active geysers and lagoons where flamingos gather. The 7-day private tours combine salt flat exploration with La Paz cable car rides and visits to the ancient Tiwanaku ruins. One interesting route takes you from La Paz down the Death Road by bike and connects to Uyuni via overnight bus. Our travelers really value having private guides who can adjust the pace and explain the geology in detail. These full circuits usually include nights in salt hotels and basic desert lodges, which adds to that feeling of being right in the middle of Bolivia's wild places.
Our most popular expedition-style tours blend La Paz's busy streets with extended salt flat journeys. These run between 5 and 12 days, taking you from ancient dinosaur tracks in Sucre to the rich-colored lagoons near Chile. Our travelers consistently mention how much they enjoy exploring Potosi's old mines and discovering unique spots like the wind-carved Stone Tree in the Siloli Desert. If you opt for a longer trip, you'll spend time in Madidi National Park watching for pink river dolphins and anacondas in their natural habitat. What sets these explorer tours apart is how they combine the vast salt flats with hidden places like Chikini Cavern, where you can see fossilized spider webs frozen in time.

Intrepid Travel really stands out for keeping their groups small, which makes a huge difference in how you experience places. When you're not moving around as part of a big crowd, you get to actually chat with locals and slip into smaller restaurants and spots that bigger groups just can't access. Their guide Gonzalo gets mentioned a lot in TourRadar reviews - he's got this deep knowledge of the areas and goes out of his way to help everyone in the group feel comfortable. Bamba's also getting good marks from travelers for putting together solid itineraries and their food stops are spot on. Their guides know their stuff and really help bring places to life. That said, a few of our travelers have hit some bumps with flight arrangements and getting clear updates about their bookings. It's worth noting these communication hiccups since they've come up more than once in recent feedback. When you stack them up, Intrepid seems to have the edge on the personal touch and smoother operations, but Bamba's definitely got their strong points too, especially when it comes to their food choices and local expertise.
Best places to start your Bolivia tour
When you're mapping out your Bolivia trip, La Paz is your main jumping-off point with 49 different tours starting there. Uyuni town offers 15 departure options and Santa Cruz has 11 different tours, while Tupiza and San Pedro de Atacama in Chile each run 4 departures. Book about 2 months ahead - our data shows 58 days is the sweet spot, especially since salt flat tours fill up fast in peak season. Our past travelers really stress taking 2-3 days in La Paz first to get used to the altitude. Many find it works well to mix their salt flats visit with time exploring La Paz's local markets and indigenous communities - it adds real cultural depth to the trip. The city's cable car network isn't just practical transport; you'll get amazing mountain views that make it a genuine highlight of your time there.
Discover Bolivia tours for every budget
Looking to keep costs in check while seeing Bolivia's highlights? Our most popular 12-day tour from La Paz to the salt flats hits all the right notes, with guides who really know their stuff according to customer feedback. You'll ride La Paz's cable cars for city views, explore the Witches' Market and wander through Valle de la Luna's bizarre rock formations. We've also got a solid 5-day option that combines La Paz city tours with Tiwanaku ruins before heading to Uyuni - it's especially popular with our solo female travelers who appreciate the well-planned activities and safety considerations. One traveler mentioned there was a small mix-up about hiking distances, but still found the experience better than expected.
Our refined Bolivian journeys feature the remarkable Palacio de Sal, where elegant salt-block rooms frame expansive views across Uyuni's flats. Private 4x4 transport winds through the landscapes with expert guides adapting to your pace, while exclusive cultural moments unfold at places like Sucre's intimate 12-room Asur museum, where traditional weavers share their craft. What sets these tours apart are the thoughtful details - from quiet soaks in thermal springs near Laguna Colorada to early morning flamingo viewing without the usual crowds. Most itineraries include stays at select boutique properties housed in restored colonial buildings across La Paz, Sucre and other historic centers, where knowledgeable guides illuminate pre-Inca heritage and ancient trade routes. With group sizes kept to 10 or fewer travelers, there's plenty of freedom to explore local markets, linger at prime photo spots on the salt flats and adjust the journey as interests emerge.

44 tours in BoliviaOur most popular group tours blend Bolivian culture and landscapes over 10-12 days, keeping numbers small with around 10 travelers. Starting in La Paz, you'll wander through the Witches' Market and take cable car rides before continuing to the famous salt flats for perspective photography. Local guides help create meaningful connections in rural communities, and our travelers tell us how smoothly the group dynamics flow. The shorter 5-day routes tend to draw solo travelers who value having the complex logistics managed, particularly across remote desert sections. Groups often form tight bonds while capturing salt flat shots, exploring Sucre's historic center and sharing meals at local restaurants. When it comes to unique experiences, we include nights in salt-brick rooms and Lake Titicaca sunrise viewings. Our guides have mastered the art of reading group energy, knowing exactly when to push for that 1am Huayna Potosi summit attempt, or when to dial things back for a relaxed evening at camp. The small group size of 10 means slipping into tiny local restaurants, chatting with residents and accessing places that larger tours simply cannot reach.
Small Group
43 tours in BoliviaBolivia adventures work best in small groups, with most tours having around 10 travelers for a more personal feel. Our customers connect naturally with local communities while staying in distinctive salt-brick rooms near Uyuni, and exploring the colonial streets of Sucre at an unhurried pace. The core experiences blend seamlessly - from capturing otherworldly shots at the salt flats, wandering through La Paz's mystical Witches' Market and discovering hidden corners that bigger groups tend to miss. A favorite route spans 11 days from La Paz through Potosí and Sucre before reaching the salt flats, where our travelers say the intimate group size makes those long desert drives feel like a shared journey. Another well-crafted option runs 10-12 days, giving you time to properly absorb both the urban culture and natural landscapes. Our guide Gonzalo, in particular, gets praise for reading the group's rhythm and sharing insights that only come with small-group exploration. The limited numbers mean you can duck into cozy local eateries in La Paz, spend time with artisans in Tarabuco, and find the perfect angle for salt flat photos without crowds of other tourists in view.
Private / Personalized

The 10-day route from Santa Cruz really digs into Bolivia's culture, starting in Sucre - a UNESCO site where you'll discover traditional weaving at the intimate 12-room Asur museum. There's quality time with local artisans in Tarabuco village, where you'll learn about their historic Spanish resistance and current textile work.

The cultural highlights continue in Piscili village, where local women demonstrate age-old weaving techniques and share insights into their farming traditions. Tours wrap up in La Paz, where you can glide above the city in the cable car system, explore the colorful Witches' Market, and take in those final mountain views before heading home. Our guests particularly appreciate how the route naturally progresses through Bolivia's different altitudes, cultures, and landscapes.
The two-week Bolivia circuit starts in La Paz with panoramic cable car rides on Mi Teleférico, before winding through vibrant local markets and the enigmatic Witches' Market below. After exploring the Tiwanaku archaeological zone, you'll head to Huayna Potosi Mountain, where expert guides lead you along mountain paths that showcase Bolivia's diverse terrain.

The 14-day journey balances cultural encounters, natural phenomena, and essential downtime to create a comprehensive Bolivian experience.

Our past guests often tell us how much they value having local guides to help navigate La Paz's busy street markets and make connections in rural communities. Another solid option is the 11-day Bolivia Discovery route where you'll sleep in unique salt-brick rooms and have plenty of free time to wander Sucre's historic center. The shared experiences like capturing salt flat photos and dining at local spots really help people connect, according to recent travelers. For a shorter trip, our 5-day Uyuni tour takes care of all the logistics which solo travelers appreciate, especially in those remote desert areas where planning can be tricky.
Bolivia circuits draw couples seeking both intimacy and thoughtful itineraries. The 8-day routes from La Quiaca blend quiet moments watching salt flat sunsets, with nights at distinctive salt-block hotels. Many pairs choose our 15-day journeys mixing cultural discoveries through Sucre's colonial streets, personal encounters and elegant stays at places like the Parador Santa María la Real, housed in an 18th-century building. Our guests tell us they love how the tours balance guided exploration with downtime, browsing local markets, and settling in for sunset views at Laguna Colorada where flamingos gather in the rosy waters. Private 4x4 adventures across Uyuni's salt landscapes give plenty of opportunities for those fun perspective photos, while nights at secluded spots like Tambo Coquesa mean stargazing from your desert retreat. What makes these trips special is the mix - you'll taste wines in colonial cellars, walk among giant cacti on Incahuasi Island and still have peaceful evenings to yourselves.
Our younger guests love getting active while soaking up local culture. They frequently choose tours that combine cycling the Death Road outside La Paz, trekking old Pre-Incan trails near Sucre and sleeping under vast desert skies in the Andes. The itineraries include plenty of time to explore La Paz's mysterious Witches' Market, learn about traditional coca farming and capture amazing shots at Laguna Colorada. Those free afternoons built into the schedule are perfect for finding cool local spots or joining up with other travelers for impromptu activities. Our guides know all the prime sunset viewing spots at the salt flats and can point you toward the most authentic local restaurants.
Senior travelers tell us they really value our thoughtfully-paced tours that mix cultural experiences with comfortable stays. Many choose itineraries starting with 2-3 days in La Paz to get used to the altitude before exploring the colonial architecture and riding the cable car network. The guided visits to Tiwanaku's ruins are particularly popular, where our guides share fascinating details about pre-Inca history.

What's the Best Time to Visit Bolivia?
The dry season from May through October is your sweet spot for exploring Bolivia with clear skies and really comfortable temperatures. It's perfect if you want to check out the Salar de Uyuni and Altiplano regions but pack some warm stuff because nights up in the high altitude areas above 3600m can get pretty chilly even in the dry season. During wet season November to April the salt flats transform into this incredible mirror effect that reflects the sky it's absolutely stunning but keep in mind some routes might be flooded and tough to access. The temperatures hover around 86°F or 30°C in the dry season which is just about perfect for most travelers. If you're heading to the Andes or Amazon you'll want to look up specific weather patterns because these areas have their own microclimates.
What Can You Experience of Local Life and Traditions?
You'll find some amazing cultural experiences in Bolivia starting with La Paz's Witches' Market where locals sell traditional remedies and handicrafts it's pretty fascinating stuff. The Sunday market in Tarabuco is a must-see our TourRadar customers always rave about it especially for the incredible Aymara weaving traditions. Over on Lake Titicaca's Isla del Sol you can dive into ancient Inca culture checking out the Inca Steps and Fountain of Youth. For a really authentic experience try staying with local communities or at the Jukil Community lodge. The 12-Day Bolivia Andes Hiking and Amazon Expedition lets you get really close to local life in some pretty remote communities.
What Natural Areas Can You Visit Outside the Cities?
The Eduardo Avaroa Andean Fauna Reserve is absolutely incredible you'll need a 4x4 to get there from Uyuni but it's worth it for the colored lagoons flamingos and Siloli Desert. Madidi National Park in the Amazon is a biodiversity paradise you can get there by flying into Rurrenabaque then taking a boat trip. If you're into mountain adventures the Cordillera Real range with peaks like Huayna Potosi is accessible from La Paz through organized treks. The Best of BoliviLa Paz to Uyuni tour takes you through some amazing spots including the Siloli Desert and the stunning Red Lake Laguna Colorada.
How Do You Get Around Bolivia?
Getting around Bolivia is pretty straightforward local buses connect all the major cities they run frequently but comfort levels can vary. For longer trips you might want to grab an overnight tourist bus with reclining seats it's much more comfortable. The Best of BoliviLa Paz to Uyuni tour uses these overnight buses which works really well. If you're short on time domestic flights between places like La Paz Sucre Uyuni and Santa Cruz are super convenient La Paz to Uyuni is just a quick 40-minute hop. In La Paz don't miss riding the Mi Teleférico cable car system it's not just transport it's an experience with amazing views. Around town you've got plenty of taxis and micros these little minibuses to get you where you need to go.
Which Festivals Should You Try to Experience?
Bolivia's festivals are incredible the Tarabuco Festival in March is this amazing celebration of indigenous culture with traditional music dance and crafts you won't want to miss it. The Oruro Carnival is absolutely spectacular it's actually UNESCO recognized and happens in February or March with these amazing costumes and parades. January brings the Alasitas Festival to La Paz where everyone buys miniatures for good luck it's pretty unique. Then there's the Tinku festival in Potosí usually in May where indigenous communities take part in ritual combat it sounds intense but it's all about renewal and fertility.
