About

Occupying the western third part of the country, Bolivia’s Altiplano or high plateau is a breathtaking and otherworldly destination whose elevation and infinite horizons, seemingly void of any living presence, hold geological, human and animal treasures that have remained unchanged through the ages.

A HIGH AND UNUSUAL MAGICAL LAND

The Altiplano is full of magical extremes. La Paz, the highest city on Earth, is a mystifying metropolis full of the bizarre and the unusual. Witch markets, cable car public transportation, extravagant “Cholet” architecture, and a diversity of inhabitants that seem to live in some sort of time warp or parallel dimension. The islands in nearby Lake Titicaca, the highest navigable lake in the world, offer shamanic rituals and up-close cultural encounters with peoples that live just as they did thousand of years ago. Further down south and at a similar longitude, Uyuni, the largest salt flat on the planet, is waiting to blow you off your feet with the way sky and land mix and play in the distance.
