    Detailed trip itinerary

    Day 1

    A La Paz tour is straightaway after you arrive.  Arrive in La Paz, the highest international airport in the world, anytime today and private transfer to your hotel. You´ll have a private city tour in the afternoon if there is time, visiting the Witches’ Market, colonial La Paz, downtown La Paz and the presidential plaza. Later you will visit the Valley of the Moon which gives the eerie sensation of being on the moon or another planet because of its strange rock formations. You will also have a chance to ascend the majestic Illimani Mountain on the highest urban cable car in the world. If there is not time for a city tour today, we will include one before your departing flight on day 5.

    Day 2

    This morning we head out of La Paz to the ancient ruins of Tiwanaku on a private tour. The Tiwanaku culture thrived from around 200 to 800 AD and controlled a large area of Bolivia and southern Peru. The ruins are fascinating, with strange, sculpted faces set in the walls of a sunken temple and a huge carved archway called the Gate of the Sun. Return to La Paz in the afternoon.

    Day 3

    Lake Titicaca is the destination this morning. It’s a beautiful journey there across the altiplano by private vehicle, with a series of +20,000 ft. peaks glistening off to our right the entire trip. After arriving into Copacabana, we’ll have lunch on the lake shore and then embark on a short boat journey to the Island of the Sun. We will spend the night of the island. Great sunset views!

    Day 4

    The Island of the Sun is the mythical, and perhaps actual, origin place of the Incas. This morning we visit some fascinating maze-like proto-Inca ruins and then head by boat to the south side of the island for more sightseeing and a lunch with spectacular views of the lake. Afternoon return by boat to Copacabana then by private vehicle to La Paz.

    Day 5

    Today is departure day. If you are departing in the evening and have not had a city tour, you will have a city tour today before your private transfer to the international airport.

    Extra accommodation

    We will gladly arrange additional accommodation for you before or after your trip.

    Joining the tour

    On all Southern Crossings tours, you are met at the airport by one of our representatives (holding a Southern Crossings placard), who will accompany you to our joining hotel. No bargaining or being swindled by airport taxis.

    Single Person Supplement

    A single person supplement will be added to your quote if you are travelling alone.

    Is this trip for me?

    Bolivia Blitz is a five-day tour which includes walking in various ruins and on city tours. As always, a certain patience is required for the inconsistencies and delays of developing-world travel.

    Required documents

    All travelers to Bolivia are required to have a passport valid for at least six months from date of entry. Visas are not required for E.U., U.S., Canadian, Australian or New Zealand passport holders. U.S. citizens can visit the U.S. state department website and Canadian citizens can visit the government of Canada travel advisory page. For other nationalities, please consult the nearest Bolivian embassy or consulate. An onward ticket and proof of funds may also be required at entry and should be available to show to immigration. Traveler’s checks, currency or a bank statement from the bank or printed off the internet are sufficient for proof of funds.

    Required immunizations

    No immunizations are required of travelers to these areas of Bolivia, except for U.S. citizens who are required to show a yellow fever international certificate as part of the visa requirement. Travelers may wish to receive hepatitis vaccinations and should be current on all other standard vaccinations. No areas visited on this trip are malaria or yellow fever zones. Please consult your physician or local health department for more information.

    Climate

    Rain is possible at any time of year, especially in high mountains and on the Bolivian altiplano, and one should always be prepared. The climate in sites we will visit is as follows: La Paz, Lake Titicaca, and Tiwanaku: days are warm if sunny, chilly if cloudy. Nights are cold in La Paz.

    Money guide

    The unit of currency in Bolivia is the boliviano. Automatic cash points are available in La Paz. Visa, MasterCard, Plus, and Cirrus are the most common usable types of cards. Notify your bank that you will be travelling to Bolivia. Traveler’s checks are difficult to cash (American Express is best, but you may be charged 5-8% to cash) or a Visa or MasterCard for cash advances are also options. Do not bring Money Grams or International Money Orders, as they are extremely difficult to exchange. Banks and exchange houses are available in La Paz, and exchange houses are available in Copacabana. For currency, U.S. dollars are recommended and most easily exchanged. Please note that cash must be untorn. It can be older looking, but even the slightest tear on an edge will make it unchangeable. Acceptable bills come out of the ATMs in country. Expect to spend about US$4-10 on a meal, US$1 on a beer, water or soft drink in Bolivia. Artisan market prices are usually lower than people expect. Beautiful alpaca sweaters for example can cost between $5 and $30. Currency Converter
