    This was a once in a lifetime tour - you get to see the very best of Bolivia and the stunning landscapes it has to offer. Be prepared for long travel days, and prepare yourself for the altitude sickness as it can get pretty tough - I would advise to start in Peru, or a lower altitude country to acclimatise for a few days first. It would have been great if the tour started in Sucre and ended in La Paz, as this would have been a better route to acclimatise. Henri, our Intrepid tour guide was amazing, he put effort into the care and safety of the group and fun to be around!

    Not enough attention to the high attitude issue, I spent 30 hours flight +layover to arrive La Paz, then oxygen was tested, I was told next day I can't go with the team, because of lower oxygen level! But I was not told, if I can't go, what I should do in the next 10 days in La Paz, if intrepid would refund or not???? So it was very frustrated, that I couldn't sleep , that I caught a bad cold it lasted whole trip. I think in your itinerary and before we pay the tour, you should let us know that you conduct daily oxygen test, possible we could not finish the tour, or your website should advise us to take medication early to prevent that issue....

    The tour was excellent including our guide Marisol Maydana She made me feel safe , gave good information daily on what we saw , always looked after us well like a good friend. I enjoyed the bus rides as got to see the countryside side of Boliva accommodation was comfortable. All the places we went were good. I would suggest in future maybe include dates for the LaPaz Carnival. I was lucky and although didn’t know about LaPaz carnival I was in LaPaz 5 days before carnival started so got to enjoy it , I think future customers would also. Thank you. My first trip with Tour Radar was a success. Kathryn Fink

    Bolivia is such a beautiful country, totally worth the time and effort visiting! The tour is adventurous requiring physical strength and endurance. Altitude discomfort is really but with proper management, it wasn't an big issue for us. The accommodations are basic but characteristics, we enjoyed it!

    I have been on 6 trips with Intrepid and have always had a good time. I only had one travel leader that I and others on the trip were not particularly pleased with but it did not impact the experience. Everything went as planned and accomodations were always absolutely more than I expected.
