Bolivia is landlocked, sparsely populated and packed with extraordinary scenery, including sweeping savannahs, soaring Andean peaks, the immense Lake Titicaca, the glittering salt flats of Uyuni and swathes of pristine rainforest. Nature here plays by its own rules.
Bolivia
Largely untouched by modernity, Bolivia’s infrastructure is fairly basic, making a strong sense of adventure an important requirement for most trips.
Plan South America organises tailor made luxury journeys featuring the most spectacular corners of the country. Adventures here combine best with expeditions into Chile, Argentina and Peru.
The Inside Track
Take a look at some of our recent articles about Bolivia
- “I just wanted to say what a triumph the whole expedition was. All brilliantly arranged by you and your team. And I really don't think I would have changed a thing. We adored it all and felt we spent just the right amount of time at each place. Each hotel . was stunning. Best rooms, very quiet, very big and with great views. And really good food at all of them. You also successfully managed to minimise or vary the travel - which was quite an achievement considering the distances we covered. Catching very early or late pm flights where possible really works as you don't waste the day. We loved our guides . All very intelligent, well informed and spoke excellent English. So, a thousand thanks. We will be recommending you and PlanSouthAmerica to all our friends. Tom and I are already talking about a return next February.
