ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE 10-DAY BEST OF BOLIVIA TOUR

This 10-DAY BEST OF BOLIVIA TOUR is for adventurous riders who are able to ride a little bit of every type of terrain. We will start in the low eastern plains of Bolivia and climb up the highest Andean peaks to ride the Altiplano. The scenery is otherworldly and spectacular, even moon-like at times. We ride both paved and unpaved roads and everything in between. Highlights include the salt flats in Uyuni and the Silver mountain in Potosi.

This one-way expedition starts in Santa Cruz and ends in the world’s highest-located capital city called La Paz. There is an option to extend the tour by one day and do the famous and at times scary ride down the “Death Road” leading east out of La Paz.
