Nuestra Opinión

✅ A fantastic, beautiful shoulder month to begin traveling the whole country.

🎯 Best Time to Visit Bolivia

The dry winter season from May to October is the most reliable time to visit. Skies are brilliantly clear and overland travel is safe from floods. However, if your main goal is to see the sky reflecting on the flooded Salar de Uyuni (Salt Flats), you must go during the rainy season in February or March.

💰 Budget Guide: Bolivia

Budget ($25-40/day) / Mid-range ($60-100/day) / Luxury ($150-250/day). Bolivia is the most affordable country in South America by a significant margin. Multi-day tours, transport, and food are incredibly cheap.

✈️ Getting to Bolivia

El Alto International Airport (LPB) near La Paz is the highest international airport in the world (4,061m). To avoid immediate altitude sickness, some travelers fly into Santa Cruz (VVI) at a lower elevation.

⚠️ Consejos de Viaje Imprescindibles Bolivia

🍃

Chew Coca Leaves

It is legal and ubiquitous in Bolivia. Chewing the mild coca leaf or drinking coca tea is the most effective local remedy for combating altitude sickness.

🧻

Bring Toilet Paper

Public bathrooms and even many hostels rarely stock toilet paper. Always carry a roll in your daypack, along with small coins to pay the bathroom attendants.

🥶

Prepare for Freezing Nights

If doing the 3-day Salt Flat tour in the winter (June/July), your basic salt-block hotel will likely have no heating. Rent a sleeping bag from your tour operator. You will need it.

🚠

Ride the Teleférico

La Paz has the most spectacular public transit system in the world—a massive network of aerial cable cars. Ride them at sunset for mind-blowing views of the city sprawling up the canyon walls.

🛡️ Seguro de Viaje Recomendado

Get travel insurance for peace of mind.
