Hi,

In two weeks I will be travelling solo through Peru and Bolivia. This will be my first solo trip and I am only 19 years old, so it's a bit scary, but at the same time I can't wait to go! At the moment I am reading as much as I can about the countries, so I can get the most out of the time I am there (27 days). But still I have a couple questions about my trip.

To begin with, I don't want to plan everything before I leave. I would like to have the possibility...

Hi folks, My wife and I lived in Bolivia for two years a while ago. We are now taking our two teenage daughters there to experience what is by far one of my most favorite places in the world. I have several questions for the forum since a lot has changed since we were last there.

We have two weeks and are thinking of the following itinerary:
land in La Paz early on a Monday morning, we will immediately fly to Rurre. We will do a 2 day rain forest, possibly include the...

Hope this requested for comments brings comments from those who have been there and those that know it well. This is the end of my 5-6 weeks which begins in BA and finishes in Bolivia after a fly day from Salvador Brazil. I'm ancient in age but young at heart - solo, frugal, hostels, buses, don't sit long any where, love the out doors, old things, and probably won't be back. Concerned that maybe I can't make the schedule because of bad transportation assumptions, etc. and...

Hi,

Using guide services that I'll find once I am in La Paz -- and not over the internet -- How much should I budget in USD for:

1. A 14-day trek the length of the Cordillera Real, and,

2. A guided climb via the relatively non-technical route to the summit of Nevado Sajama?

Thanks very much in advance,

I would like to start a three day/two nights-tour to Salar de Uyuni on the 28th of June. I have been in contact with Uyuni Expeditions for this, as they have got good reviews and also offer a mid-ranged option with private rooms (basic) with bathroom and max 4 passengers per vehicle.
I travel alone and they need one more person to sign up to start the tour. So I hope someone else is interested?
It is their Auka Runas Uyuni – Uyuni Tour that I am interested in doing. The tour is $...

My trip to Bolivia and Uyuni Salt Flat is by far the most physically challenging journey that I had in my life. I had to combat jet lag, high altitude, zero humidity, polarized temperature range, lost in translation, and complete remoteness with none cell phone coverage…

Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia is the world’s largest salt flat. I believe the Salt Flat is on everybody’s travel bucket list.

Planning a trip to Bolivia in October 2020. I want to do a jungle lodge. Chalalan or Sadiri are my options.

I would rather do Chalalan. However I think I can use my Cpap machine at Sadiri wheras at Chalalan that might be tough. According to them.

Does anyone know about these lodges? Is chalalan so superior that I should be willing to go through 3 Poor sleep nights? I have moderate sleep apnea. If I had severe this would not even be a question.

Good evening!

I am planning to travel to Bolivia for a month, next November or December (dates to be fixed).
How is this time to travel there?? what about Uyuni salt pans?

Thanks so much as usual for your great recommendations!
Best regards!
