Bolivia Custom Tours and Trips

53 reviews on bookmundi

Bolivia’s greatest experiences are scattered between the high Andes, immense salt flats, colonial cities and surprisingly wild tropical lowlands. You can’t pack it all on a regular tour and do justice to them all. With Bolivia custom tours, you will focus on destinations and activities that pique your interest. You might spend a night beneath the stars at Salar de Uyuni, uncover the silver-mining history of Potosí, explore Indigenous heritage around La Paz and Tiwanaku, or swap the Altiplano for wildlife in Amboró, the Amazon or Pantanal. Just as importantly, the journey can account for altitude, long overland distances and your preferred level of comfort. Our local experts can adapt an existing itinerary or create a tailor-made Bolivia trip that balances adventure, cultural encounters and downtime around the places you genuinely want to explore.

Planning a Trip to Bolivia: Essential Travel Tips & Insights

Get expert travel insights for Bolivia - discover the best time to visit, ideal trip duration, and must-visit destinations to help you plan and customize your perfect tour.

When to go to Bolivia?

The dry season, between May to October, is the best time for an adventure in a country dubbed ‘the Tibet of South America’. This is when the sky is clear and there is no fear of rain. Travelers heading for regions like the Amazon Basin benefit from this cold and dry weather. However, it does get chilly in the highlands during this time of the year. Learn more.

How long to stay in Bolivia?

For those considering a tailor-made Bolivia tour, we recommend seven days to three weeks—or even more—depending on your requirements. The major highlights can be covered in a week while spending three weeks in the country lets you experience Bolivia in all its fullness without rushing. Learn more.

Must-visit destinations in Bolivia

Some of our favorite highlights in the country include the majestic Basilica of San Francisco in La Paz, the stunning Lake Titicaca, the churches of the Chiquitania region, the colonial mansions of Sucre, and the sand dunes of Lomas de Arena. Go on a gondola ride while in La Paz and cycle through the Road of Death. Visit the salt flats of Uyuni and soak up the otherworldly landscape of Valle De La Luna. For lesser-known experiences, have your fortunes told at the Witches' Market in Cerro Cumbre and discover the pre-Colombian ruins of Tiwanaku.

I'm originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I love South America and I enjoy sharing this passion I have for the region, including the landscapes, the people, the food and the culture. I hope to help you experience South America and love it as I do! I always loved to travel and I started from a very young age. I decided to study tourism to be in touch with people and cultures from all over the world. After getting my degree, I travelled even more. I met incredible people, observed magical landscapes, ate amazing local food and learned a lot about life and people. I have travelled throughout Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Brasil, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Asia and Europe. I travel to very exotic destinations and I love helping people to have mind-changing experiences. I like to think my experience helps me design the best trip for everyone.

Would not recommend this tour

I booked this tour in September 2025, expecting a group tour of the island, and learning about the history of the Inca’s through a guide. What we got instead was a self-guided Bolivia Hop tour. If you’re looking to do this, I would recommend booking directly through Bolivia Hop and paying $39 (at the time of writing this review). We were also provided accomodation through this tour company, and they booked us accomodation at the very top of the island (which was incredibly hard for my 65 year old mother to get to) which cost $29 a night for two people. The itinerary they also provided me was wrong, with wrong information and timings. For example, they told us we could catch a ferry to the northern part of the island and then hike back and it would take three hours. However, online research and speaking to others this seemed to be wrong and there was no ferry. Instead, the hike is three hours each way and you need to catch the ferry by 3pm that day, making it nearly impossible with the altitude unless you are quite active. I do feel this advertisement is misleading, and would definitely not advise to book this through Bamba travel or Bookmundi.

The most wonderful trip!

We had the most wonderful trip through Bolivia. We saw and experienced a lot. It was very varied and action packed. We had some very knowledgeable guides throughout the trip.

It was truly a trip of a lifetime.

I went on both the Guatemala & Bolivia Tours back-to-back. It was truly a trip of a lifetime. The guides were excellent, and the tours were full of exciting adventures and cultural immersion activities! 5/5 stars for sure!! I had the most wonderful time & I am looking forward to traveling with CharlieTheTraveler again!!! Tashi

All in all, it was a wonderful trip and we highly recommend it.

We just completed CharlieTheTraveler's Bolivia trip and had a fantastic time. The country has such a wide variety of interesting sights and we managed to visit most of the best ones. His team of local guides based in La Paz were excellent. And while all of the sights and locations were interesting, I would single out the three-day excursion to the area near Uyuni as the major highlight for us. All in all, it was a wonderful trip and we highly recommend it.

Thank you to Charlie the Traveler for making Bolivia an awesome experience we will always remember!

We saw so much in Uyuni and around La Paz that I’m not even sure where to begin. Charlie the Traveler put together a custom “tour for two” on very short notice and it was first class all the way — from the Uyuni Salt Flats to our La Paz hotel with a view of the Carnaval Parade route to the guide who took us hiking high up into the Andes. William, our contact, was in constant communication with us. We had expert drivers, comfortable vehicles, and depending on the day’s itinerary we had different bilingual guides with really impressive knowledge of Bolivia’s cultural heritage and history. We learned a lot and ate well every day! Never felt more catered to, or more pampered, by a tour company. Felt like it was truly important to everyone that we had a good time: and we did! We loved Bolivia, and I will never forget having a personal wine time set up for us in the middle of the salt flats. It was unreal! Thank you for everything William and thank you to Charlie the Traveler for making Bolivia an awesome experience we will always remember!

Excellent

I came for the salt flats but got to discover that Bolivia has so much more to offer with its culture, history, and different terrains. I appreciated being able to see both the cities and nature. It was special to witness a culture so connected to the land and Indigenous people. The CEO was exceptional: approachable, communicative, kind, informative, organized, attentive and passionate.
