OVERVIEW

From the border Bolivia/ Chile (Hito Cajón) the tour heads to the Uyuni Salt Fields the world's largest salt flat. Salar de Uyuni is also the breeding grounds for three species of South American flamingos. Highlights include the Red and Green Lagoon, a salt hotel and some so-called islands.

The trip continues to Potosí famous for the rich silver mountain, where at present mines are still exploited as in the colonial times.

Sucre the official capital of Bolivia, has much to offer to the visitor. Besides visiting the most important places in the city, we head to Jatun Yampara a success of ecotourism and sustainable development. This indigenous community chose to preserve its traditions as well as its “Yampara” culture. We discover the daily life and the customs of this community by visiting the workshops, the ancient tombs called “chullpas” and the school.

Flight from Sucre to La Paz the main city in Bolivia. City tour visiting the most interesting places in La Paz, typical places like the Witches Market, artisanal markets, the colonial calle Jaén with its impressive, residential areas of the south and the well known Moon Valley , where erosion has given place to the most exotic and curious surface forms.

Coroico is 3 hours drive from La Paz , is nestled high in the mountains under La Paz and a peaceful little village. The views of the surrounding hills are lovely, the nearby hiking trails are picturesque, the bars and restaurants in town are pleasant, and there are worthwhile excursions. Here in this tropical town, you'll find fruit orchards, twittering birds, coca fields, endless greenery, oxygen-rich air, warm weather, and friendly people.

Next day, will take place an excursion to Tiwanaku archaeological place. Tiwanaku, an ancient city near the south shore of Lake Titicaca, thrived as a most important site before the Inca Empire. Tiwanaku is believed to be the capital of the Pre-Inca Civilization.

Tiwanaku was the center of a powerful, self-sustaining empire. The roots of the Tiahuanaco capital can be found in the early village underlying the 1.5-square-mile civic-ceremonial core. The city was settled by 400 B. C. on the Tiahuanaco River, which empties into Lake Titicaca 9.3 miles to the north.

The small farming village evolved into a regal city of multi-terraced platform pyramids, courts and urban areas, covering a total 2.31 square miles Traditionally it is thought to have been built by the predecessors of the Inca Civilization over 2,000 years ago. It is a mysterious ruined city of extremely ancient origins.
