Journey to the Heart of an Ancient Civilization

Step back in time as you visit Tiahuanaco, the capital of a remarkable civilization that flourished around A.D. 700. Explore the remains of this advanced society, from the towering Sun Gate to the impressive monoliths and the grand pyramid that still holds untold secrets. As you wander through these awe-inspiring ruins, uncover the mysteries of a culture that predates the Inca.

After a day of discovery, return to La Paz and enjoy a relaxing evening at your own pace.

Journey to the Historic Heights of Potosí

Start your day with a seamless transfer to the airport for a short flight to Potosí, a city steeped in history and once renowned for its vast silver wealth. Though its mining heyday has passed, Potosí remains a treasure trove of colonial charm. Wander through streets lined with grand churches, admire the intricate architecture, and step into the opulent Royal Mint, where the echoes of a rich past still linger.

Tour of Potosí and its Silver Mines

After breakfast, begin your journey across Potosí and the surrounding region. Start by traveling to the mineral-rich mountain of Cerro Rico. According to legends, this peak produced enough silver to build a solid silver bridge from Potosí all the way to Madrid.

Venture to the heart of the mountain to see the silver mines that helped finance Spain’s South American Empire. Learn about the complex history of silver production in Bolivia, and listen to how these tunnels still contribute to the city’s economy.

Back in town, take a walk through the Casa de la Moneda (Royal Mint). Examine the wooden machinery that was used to make the silver currencies for Spain during colonial days. Then, visit the Santa Teresa Museum and a few extra highlights on a private guided tour to end the afternoon.

Travel from Potosí to Sucre

Depart from Potosí as you drive through Bolivia to reach the constitutional capital of Sucre. Enjoy beautiful mountain scenery along the peaceful drive through the countryside. Once you arrive in Sucre, we will drop you off at the hotel and help you get settled in so you can relax for the rest of the day.

City Tour of Sucre and Visit a Local Community

After breakfast, a local guide will pick you up for a private city tour. Browse the exhibitions at the Casa de la Libertad museum, stop by the San Felipe convent, and delight in the spectacular views from the Mirador de la Recoleta lookout point. Stroll through the city streets admiring the colonial architecture, grand churches, and manicured lawns of the Parque Bolívar.

When the city has been thoroughly explored, you’ll head to the Jatun Yampara Community to learn about one of the most ancient cultures on the continent. While here, you’ll also get to see the detailed displays in the Museum of Native Clothing and discover the techniques used to create ceramics and textiles. Later, you’ll be dropped off back at your luxury hotel in Sucre.

Flight to Santa Cruz

Fly to the jungle town of Santa Cruz de la Sierra this morning. We will meet you at the airport and transfer you to your hotel of choice, where you can spend the evening relaxing.

Though Santa Cruz is one of Bolivia’s largest cities, it feels more like a small town. With narrow streets, old-fashioned buildings, and colonial plazas bustling with locals, there is an intimate ambiance that will welcome you warmly. If you’re feeling up to it, roam around the city, check out the museums and galleries, and indulge in a luxury dinner at one of the local restaurants. Or, if you’re looking for a more laid-back day, you could simply relax under the tropical sun lounging by the hotel pool.

Explore the Jesuit Missions of Chiquitos

Travel back in time on a guided bus tour to the six Jesuit Missions of Chiquitos, which were established in the 16th century to evangelize the locals. On the drive there, you’ll stop to stretch your legs at several serene, leafy parks and flower-filled gardens.

Your first stop is the Mission of San Javier, the oldest of the six sites. Erected in the mid-18th century, this mission was restored and brought back to its former glory in the latter half of the 20th century.

Explore the site and enjoy lunch, before continuing on to the larger Mission of Concepción for a relaxing evening.

Discover the Jesuit Missions de Chiquitos.

Following breakfast, visit the Mission of Concepción, where you’ll admire its breathtaking cathedral and explore a charming town filled with shops offering local crafts. In the afternoon, embark on a guided bus tour, making a stop in San Javier to savor freshly brewed local coffee. Conclude your day’s journey with a comfortable stay at your hotel in Santa Cruz.

Discover the Charm of Cochabamba

Your Bolivian adventure continues with a scenic drive west, climbing toward the welcoming city of Cochabamba, nestled at an altitude of just over 8,200 feet. Known as “The City of Eternal Spring,” Cochabamba enjoys mild, pleasant weather all year round, making it the perfect place to enjoy outdoor dining, leisurely walks, and a laid-back atmosphere reminiscent of a Mediterranean escape.

Upon arrival, settle into your elegant boutique hotel and take a moment to relax before exploring this enchanting city.

Unveiling Cochabamba’s Treasures

Start your morning with a guided exploration of Cochabamba, a city brimming with history and culture. Stroll along the lively El Prado Boulevard, leading to the city’s main square, where the stunning cathedral stands as a symbol of its colonial past. Step inside the University of San Simón’s Archaeological Museum and the Alcides D’Orbigny Natural History Museum to uncover fascinating artifacts and exhibits.

Next, immerse yourself in the vibrant energy of La Cancha, one of the largest open-air markets in South America—so vast that it even has its own postal code!

Conclude your tour with a visit to the Cristo de la Concordia, a towering statue of Christ that rises even higher than Rio’s Christ the Redeemer. Whether you choose to take a scenic cable car ride or climb the 2,000 steps to the summit, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of Cochabamba and the distant peaks of the Bolivian Andes.
