    This trip is an adventure of my life. Bolivia is a beautiful country if physically you can handle the altitude. The itinerary is excellent, we got to see lots of sights that were surreal. Our outstanding guide, Julia Catunta Janco, made the trip a memorable one. Julia was attentive to our needs and she communicates very well and work tirelessly to help us cope with all the 'challenges' that we encountered as we go along.Thanks Julia. Very thankful and pleased that I made the trip and survived.
