Hi

Ill be in Bolivia as part of my RTW trip in summer 2008, and I just want to get some info as to the things I shouldnt be missing.

As on my trip I am visiting over 20 countries, it cannot be an extremely detailed trip of Bolivia, so Im just looking to do the best bits.

So far the parts I really want to do is the Death Road bicycle tour and the Uyuni Salt Flats. Is there anything drastic I am missing?

Thanks

Hey there I am from Bolivia. I recommend you to visit Rurrenabaque on the north of La Paz shared with Beni (daily "Amazonas" airline planes go there, it takes less than 1 hour) it is a wonderful and very popular place if you like jungle, river navigation or if you just want to get more oxygen than the one in Uyuni, jeje. There are diferent plans depending your stay (from 2 days to 1 month) and you get to visit diferent tropical spaces. you can spend the night in the middle of the nature and sleep in tents made of wood and of course you'll get a tourist guide. Beautiful place! Reply to this

Don't miss Copacabana and Isla del Sol on Lake Titicaca. If you have time Sucre is a lovely colonial city, one of the nicest in South America, not too far from Uyuni. You could stop off between Uyuni and Sucre at Potosi and see the silver mines Reply to this

Madidi National Park offers enormous natural diversity of flora and fauna and is a must visit spot in Bolivia. It offers spectacular scenery and best place to relax. Reply to this
