“Bolivia, landlocked at the heart of Andean Latin America, remains something of a well-kept secret,” states Don Forster, Product Manager for Goway’s Latin America division. “Today, those who venture beyond the very popular neighbor of Peru—easily connected by our Puno to La Paz connector—will find a country offering an authentic take on Latin American culture.”
He explains that “the country’s innate charm lies in its staggering breadth of contrasts: the clash of indigenous and European culture, the sweep of landscape from the Amazon jungle to high-altitude mountains, the largest salt lake in the world and the diversity of activities from adrenaline sports to ancient monuments. Add to this the amazing journey from the high Altiplano down the high desert in Chile on our Salt Lakes of Bolivia connector—one of my favorite journeys in the world—and Bolivia has everything a traveler needs.
According to Foster around two thirds of the population are of indigenous origin and the authentic culture has not been watered down. “Native religions, dialects, clothes, music and medicines all form part of the daily life on the street,” he continued.
Goway’s product offers for Bolivia range from Andean Classic, a 14-days combination of Peru and Bolivia; the 12-day Best of Bolivia; 6-day Escape To Titicaca & Uyuni visiting the highest navigable lake in the world—Lake Titicaca; plus an 8-day nature cross-section adventure From The Andes To The Amazon.
