The Experience

“Look at that view!” our guide grinned as we glided over La Paz in the cable car—tiny houses spilling down the hills like a patchwork quilt. The city buzzed below: street vendors calling out in Spanish, the faint scent of fried dough drifting up from a corner stand. Later, wandering Plaza Murillo and ducking into San Francisco Church, I felt the old and new sides of Bolivia blending right in front of me. By afternoon, we were winding through Valle de la Luna’s strange rock shapes—honestly, it felt like another planet.

The next morning started early with a flight to Sucre. White colonial buildings gleamed in the sun as we strolled past Plaza 25 de Mayo. Our guide pointed out dinosaur footprints at Cretaceous Park—something I never expected to see in Bolivia! In Potosí, we met miners who still work Cerro Rico; their stories stuck with me long after we left for Uyuni. That night at the salt hotel, everything was so quiet you could hear your own footsteps crunching on the salty floor.

Uyuni Salt Flats were even bigger than I’d imagined—just endless white stretching to the horizon, broken only by cactus-covered Incahuasi Island and distant Tunupa Volcano. We snapped those classic perspective photos (our guide had all the tricks), then watched sunset paint the flats pink and gold. Back in La Paz, there was barely time to catch our breath before heading out again—this time to Lake Titicaca’s blue waters and Copacabana’s lively docks. On Isla de la Luna, local women showed us how they weave traditional cloth; their hands moved so fast it was hard to keep up.

Our last day took us to Tiwanaku’s ancient stones—giant faces carved into monoliths staring out across the high plain. The air felt thin but fresh as we wandered among ruins older than Machu Picchu. By the end of six days, my camera was full but my head even fuller—with colors, sounds, and stories from every corner of Bolivia.
