The world's largest salt plain is a popular and scenic destination for tour groups.
Without a doubt one of the most stunning and special places in the world we have toured, it is advisable to book a three-day tour well in advance from one of the leading companies in the area, rather than from small companies.

The type of landscape you've never seen before. It's stunning. The red-ish color of the water create an extraordinary scenery. One to see in a lifetime!

This icy high-altitude lake is the legendary birthplace of the Inca civilization, and is also believed to hold precious Inca treasure. When Jacques Cousteau explored the lake for treasure, he discovered instead a large, colorful deep-water frog.
The lake is so blue that one will be surprised. We had a cruise trip. Enjoyed the lake Titikaka under which Inca temples are merged . We had nearly 5 h stay on cruise and enjoyed its last bite. It is the most sacred Lake in Latin America which was worshiped by Pre Inca Tiwanaku and Inca people. Life time experience for anyone.

Having done a down hill off Volcan Toco near San Pedro de Atacama which was steep fast and quite hairy, this was a bit more pedestrian, but then the consequences are a little bit more dire if you get it wrong. Just pick a good Bike company that puts safety and professionalism first - so you may pay a bit more - so you can enjoy the day. I went with Gravity in La Paz and they were great. Good fun but still safe with good bikes. And there were a few kids riding down the road but if you ask me - ballsie parents!

The archaeological site contains walls from ancient Inca dwellings.
We try to get to Samaipata at least once or twice a year. This year was special though. Our oldest son together with our oldest grandson (our oldest grandchild for that matter) was in Santa Cruz for a visit. So, accompanied by the queen (wife/mother/grandmother) we took the three hour trip up the narrow winding road that leads from Santa Cruz to Samaipata, a small, thriving town famed for El Fuerte, a religious site dating back more than two thousand years. Located on one of the higher hills in the area, this ancient religious site can be reached by an even more winding, steeply climbing road (paved all the way I should add) that puts your car and the driver to a bit of a test. But El Fuerte is well worth the trip. The site apparently was established by the Chane around the second century BC and much later occupied by the Incas followed by the Guarani and Spanish. There is a well-marked route through the site that features the main ceremonial site, and housing and building foundations from all the major eras. Over these past years, the whole site has been expanded and protected and there are excellent viewing ramps/platforms wherever required. There knowledgeable guides available to accompany you through the site and provide additional information. Associated with El Fuerte is the Museo Arqueologico, small but exceedingly well presented that should not be missed. It is located very conveniently near the main plaza.

This exquisite mansion, now an arts center, is the most impressive example of the opulence enjoyed by Bolivian elite in the early 20th century.

This island is a must do. You must be fit as climbing is involved. I would recommend a 1 to 2 night stay or longer if you want to chill. To get to the island you must take a 25 Bob boat ride lasting 1.5hrs. There is a 10bob entrance fee to the island. The return fare was 30bob.The island has many restaurants which serve simple food.
