Adventure holiday in Bolivia
Description of Adventure holiday in Bolivia
Our adventure holidays in Bolivia start as they mean to go on: on a high, and if you’re looking to take a couple of weeks exploring in and around the highlights of La Paz (11,000ft) in the company of a local guide, right here is where you put your best foot forward.
This is an ideal experience for couples and small groups looking to find out more about the traditions and lifestyles of indigenous Aymara communities as well as travelling by local transport on route to some of Bolivia’s most spectacular salt flats, including Salar de Uyuni.
Swapping bus and train for a 4x4 vehicle is what’s required to undertake the southern altiplano desert leg of this holiday with a series of lagoons, volcanoes, geysers and thermal springs providing the backdrop to an incredible unique and colourful adventure.
From time spent on and around Lake Titicaca to a scenic drive through the Cordillera Real mountain range, the highlights over the course of two weeks come thick and fast with boat rides to the islands of the Sun and Moon allowing for a couple of days rest alongside Inca enlightenment.
Culminating in Condoriri National Park for a four day hike ensures travellers are left in no uncertain terms as to Bolivia’s staggering natural beauty where remote llama herding communities continue to live as they always have under the shadow of snow-capped peaks and wheeling condors.

During the holiday, guests are encouraged to bring a reusable water bottle and refill it with drinking water rather than purchasing water in single-use plastic bottles. Leave No Trace principles are followed throughout the holiday, and campsites and trails are left clean after use.Clean-up activities are also organised along trekking routes and local rivers.
On treks, reusable cloth bags are used for snacks instead of individual plastic bags. Biodegradable soap and dishwashing liquid are used during trekking activities.
At our offices in the UK, printing is limited and recyclable materials are recycled where possible.
People
In the Salar region, accommodation is provided, where possible, at community-run hotels, with profits retained by the communities to provide additional local income. Local staff are employed at the hotels.Guides provide information about local customs and cultures and explain how communities in remote areas live and make their livelihoods. They also aim to present Bolivian culture accurately and respectfully to visitors.
For all treks, fresh local produce is purchased where possible, with local products preferred to imported alternatives. This also supports the use of locally produced ingredients in the organisation's cooking.
Locally owned hotels are preferred where possible instead of large international hotel chains, helping to retain tourism expenditure within Bolivia.
Porters and donkey drivers are recruited locally from the areas in which the treks take place. They carry a maximum load of 20 kg and are provided with tents and food.
