"Options for a One Week Tour of Bolivia" Top 5 Page for this destination Bolivia Favorite Tip by AlbuqRay

Favorite thing: Seven days is not that much time considering the distances involved in traveling in Bolivia. It pretty much eliminates a Salar de Uyuni trip, which takes a day of travel each way to and from La Paz, and at least two days to see much of the Salar. I would spend a day touring La Paz (Hotel Rosario) and head to Copacabana (Hotel Rosario del Lago) and Isla del Sol (La Estancia Ecolodge) for a couple nights. I would choose a day trip to Tiwanaku over a trip on the world's most dangerous road and a night in Cororico (Hotel Esmeralda), although if you just want to relax, Cororico is a great place to do it. Potosi is another good option. You could fly to Sucre, take a shared taxi to Potosi (Hostal Colonial), spend the night, tour the mines the next morning, take a taxi back to Sucre (Hostal Independencia), spend the night there, and maybe have time to see the dinosaur tracks before flying back to La Paz. Clearly, with a one week time constraint you will have to make some choices.
