Info Tour

From one end of Bolivia to the other: we will set off from the jungle of Trinidad at Chuchini and head to the beautiful city of Sucre, famous for its temperate climate and architecture. We will then continue to the Salar de Uyuni with its hot springs and geysers, the Siloli and Dalí deserts, the multicolored lagoons, flamingos, Incahuasi Island, and the train cemetery. Of course, La Paz with its historic center and Moon Valley, Tiwanacu with its massive monoliths, and Lake Titicaca are not to be missed. All of this to truly tip-toe into the spirit of this country, like true travelers.

Itinerary

Intercontinental flight to Santa Cruz and connecting flight to Sucre. Upon arrival, meeting at the airport with our local representative and transfer to the B&B. The afternoon will be free to rest, allowing for a gradual acclimation to the altitude. We recommend eating light meals.

Transfer to the airport to take a domestic flight to Trinidad, one of the main cities in the Bolivian Amazon. The change of scenery is breathtaking! Lush vegetation, humid heat, gigantic rivers… welcome to the Amazon! Trinidad is located in the heart of the Moxos plains, vast pampas that flood for several months of the year. In less than an hour, we settle into the deep jungle, at our Eco-lodge nestled in the middle of the forest. We have the rest of the afternoon free to walk around the surroundings where we can spot monkeys, emperor butterflies, frogs, and insects. We spend the night in our bungalow, lulled by the symphony of jungle animals. Overnight at the eco-lodge.

Today we will observe the abundant wildlife of this reserve, home to giant otters, multicolored parrots, spider monkeys, toucans, sloths… we can spot the pink Amazon river dolphins from the canoe as it glides peacefully through the meanders of the river. According to the locals, if the dolphins are around, it is completely safe to go for a swim. As night falls, we will head out to spot caimans. Overnight at the eco-lodge.

Today we will navigate the Mamoré River, one of the main tributaries of the Amazon. Its scale is hard to imagine for anyone unfamiliar with the proportions of the Amazon. The Mamoré hosts an astonishing natural diversity, and numerous indigenous peoples live along its banks. Our guide will take us to a peaceful spot to observe the dolphins and go for a swim. Afterward, we will try our hand at piranha fishing, as they abound in the lagoons that form along the sides of the river. Overnight at the eco-lodge.

The howler monkey serves as our alarm clock, and we begin to feel part of this magnificent forest, where the jaguar roams and sometimes lets itself be heard. We will search for its tracks along the jungle trails. Later, in the lodge’s small museum, we will discover the archaeological remains found in Chuchini. The Moxos civilization, still shrouded in mystery, has begun to reveal some of its secrets in recent years. Far from being a virgin forest, this woodland was inhabited for thousands of years by peoples who transformed its geography by constructing massive canals, platforms hundreds of meters long, and even true pyramids. Afterward, we will return to Trinidad Airport for our flight to Sucre, the White City—a completely different world. Upon arrival, meet our local representative at the airport and transfer to the hotel. Overnight at the hotel.

After breakfast, accompanied by our guide, we will explore the city and its museums. We will visit the central market and the Casa de la Libertad, the historic site where Bolivia’s independence was signed. We will then continue to Recoleta Square to enjoy the viewpoint overlooking the historical center, and discover the ASUR museum with its rich exhibition of indigenous textiles, before concluding with a visit to the church of San Felipe Neri.

A private vehicle will take us in three hours to Potosí, the Imperial City, located at over 4,000 meters above sea level. We will make a brief visit to the city center before continuing south across the Altiplano. Along the way, “bofedales”, wetlands where thousands of llamas graze, follow one after another. Rounding a final mountain pass above Uyuni, the endless white expanse of the Salar appears before us. Overnight at the hotel.

In the morning, we will begin our 4×4 tour with other tourists (maximum 4 people), visiting the “Train Cemetery” as our first stop, a testament to the era when Uyuni was Bolivia’s railway hub. We will then head toward Colchani, where we will stop at a local handicraft market. We will enter the Salar de Uyuni to visit its salt monuments and then cross this immense white desert to Incahuasi Island, known for its giant cacti. Here, we can hike to the top of the island to enjoy a 360° view of the Salar. In the afternoon, we will continue our journey south across the desert until reaching the village, where we will have dinner and spend the night in a lodge.

We will begin the day by passing through the small Chiguana salt flat, then cross the old railway connecting Uyuni to the Chilean ports. We will observe the Ollagüe volcano, which is still active, before taking the road leading to the lagoons, which we will visit one after another: Laguna Cañapa, Laguna Hedionda, and Laguna Honda. Next, we will cross the Siloli Desert, where we will visit the Stone Tree before reaching the famous Laguna Colorada, populated by thousands of pink flamingos. We will spend the night in a shelter in the village of Huayllajara.

We will depart very early to reach the “Sol de Mañana” geysers at sunrise—at nearly five thousand meters high—during their moment of peak activity. Then, we will head to the Polques hot springs, where we will have time to bathe in the outdoor pools. Afterward, we will visit the Salvador Dalí Desert with its surreal landscapes. From this point on, we will begin our return journey toward Uyuni, passing through the “Valle de las Rocas” (Valley of the Rocks). We will arrive in Uyuni in the late afternoon and, in the evening, board the overnight bus back to La Paz.

Upon arrival at the La Paz bus station, we will meet our local representative for the transfer to the hotel, where a room will be available immediately upon arrival. After a few hours of rest, we will begin the city tour of La Paz accompanied by a local guide. There will be no shortage of sights: we will discover the Witches’ Market, the Church of San Francisco, Plaza Murillo, and the colonial street Calle Jaén, before heading toward the striking Valley of the Moon and enjoying a ride on the city’s modern cable cars.

We will depart from La Paz by private transport to visit the Tiwanacu archaeological site, the most important in the country and considered the oldest urban structure in South America, located about two hours from the capital. Together with our guide, we will visit its famous monoliths, the pyramid, the various structures, and the site museum.After our visit, we will stop at a local family’s home where we can share a typical lunch. In the afternoon, we will continue our journey toward Copacabana, the main Bolivian port on Lake Titicaca.

In the morning, we will visit the Basilica de la Virgen Negra, the most visited pilgrimage church in Bolivia, the market, and “El Calvario,” a hill next to the town where offerings are made to Pachamama (Mother Earth), blending Catholic and Andean traditions. Shortly before noon, a transfer will take us in about half an hour to the port of Yampupata, where we will take a private boat to the Island of the Moon. Upon arrival, we will be welcomed by a local family at their small hostel and share a typical lunch made with local products. In the afternoon, we will take a walk across the island to visit the ruins of the striking “Temple of the Virgins of the Sun.”

The following day, before dawn (optional), we can join a local fisherman to retrieve the fishing nets set the previous evening. After breakfast, we will travel by boat to the northern side of the Island of the Sun. From there, we will take a half-hour walk to reach the ruins of Chincana, an ancient sacred site of the Inca Empire. We will then return by boat to Yampupata, where our vehicle will be waiting to drive us to El Alto airport in time to catch the direct flight to Santa Cruz.

 Verified Beautiful trip organized perfectly
We had a wonderful experience, perfectly organized and enriched by the contribution of the guides Camilo, very kind in welcoming us to Cusco, and David, who accompanied us on the subsequent stages. What I appreciated most was his frankness in telling us about Peru, helping us to observe and understand a reality deeply different from our own through his perspective. It certainly enriched our trip from a human and cultural point of view. We absolutely recommend this experience!

 Verified Peru has entered our hearts, thanks to PerùEtico
Usually I organize trips by myself, and it is a part of the trip that I love: I want to choose everything and leave nothing to chance. This year, for a series of reasons, I decided to rely on an agency for the trip to Peru with my sister, and I could not have made a better choice. The thing I loved most is that PerùEtico built the trip exactly as I would have organized it, following my idea of travel. In August we experienced 15 intense days. We started from Lima and Cusco, then Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca and the Colca Canyon, up to Arequipa, Huacachina and Paracas. It was a trip that made us fall in love with this country. All the guides, whom we met on our path, were always wonderful: knowledgeable, passionate and capable of telling about their land with a contagious affection. The organization was impeccable. The app was our compass: day-by-day schedule, times, tickets, and accommodations always accessible. Next to the app was Gianni, who assisted us throughout the trip, via Whatsapp, with rare availability and kindness. Any question was immediately answered. Thank you very much Gianni, you were our point of reference! We did not have a single problem. The transfers were always punctual, the guides wonderful, and we felt followed at every moment. Some experiences particularly impressed us. First of all Cusco: we fell in love with the city and its surroundings (do not miss the evening walk Myths and legends with Camilo, who will make you discover a fascinating and mysterious side of the city). Then the private tour in the Sacred Valley, with an extraordinary guide who told us about every place with passion. The Palccoyo Rainbow Mountain: we really appreciated this choice, because it is less beaten by mass tourism and for this reason even more exciting. Finally, the two days in the Colca Canyon, managed to perfection. A special mention goes to Taquile. We spent two days on Lake Titicaca hosted by a local family, sharing their daily life. It is the experience that remained most in our hearts. We loved everything about this trip. Peru is an incredible country and the Peruvian people are fantastic, welcoming, and smiling. PerùEtico knew how to let us experience it in the most beautiful way. We recommend it to anyone who dreams of this trip: you will be in excellent hands. Heartfelt thanks to the whole team! Emanuela and Elisa

 Verified Excellent experience, beyond expectations!! Highly recommended!
We organized a personalized 15-day itinerary with them, which included 4 days of the Inca Trail. The organization was fantastic (in Italian), complete and detailed, with many tips derived from their long experience and with easy and friendly interactions (Emanuele is the best!). Very detailed and transparent quote (and final statement), including the breakdown of costs. He advised us to spend a day with a family on Lake Titicaca, and it was truly worth it. One of the best memories of the trip! Before departure, everything was uploaded to the app: the highly detailed program (appointments, pickup times, names and phone numbers of the guides) as well as all the necessary tickets for the tour, information sheets for the booked hotels, tips on restaurants, the itinerary, luggage, etc. We were then looked after on-site by Camilo, a friendly, comforting, and constant presence who assisted us day and night (via WhatsApp, by phone, and in person!) and, above all, managed critical issues in a very proactive manner, providing us with a series of alternatives and always proving willing to understand and accommodate all our needs. The Inca Trail was closed due to bad weather, and we had to do the short itinerary (2 days). Camilo promptly proposed a series of alternatives, reorganizing the bookings and the transfers of our luggage in an optimal manner, according to the new route. In Cusco, he made himself available to spend time with us (not planned) and was a fantastic guide, telling us about the peculiarities of the city and its history, which allowed us to truly appreciate the city and the Peruvian people (do not miss his \"Myths and Legends\" guided tour). I usually organize my trips on my own, so I was able to particularly appreciate their meticulous assistance in all phases, their advice and proposals, and, above all, the passion and experience they demonstrate in their work! Truly great! Highly recommended!

 Verified Peru with PerúEtico
We visited Peru in August 2026, with a 2-week trip organized by PerúEtico. Family trip for 4 people. PerúEtico supported us with attention from the very beginning during the trip planning phase. All of our questions received an immediate response and always within 24 hours. PeruEtico gave us advice on how to customize our visit, and in particular, Machu Picchu. During our stay in Peru, we were constantly in contact via WhatsApp with Camilo, who was always available to answer any of our questions. The first few days in the Cusco area, we had a guide in Italian dedicated to us and attentive to making sure we followed the visit schedule while respecting our pace. Even in cases of unforeseen events, PeruEtico supported us in a timely manner to try not to compromise the travel itinerary. We recommend choosing PeruEtico if you are thinking about visiting Peru, a wonderful trip!!!!

 Verified Great job, precise, attentive. Highly recommended!
We used Perù Etico for a tailor-made trip in August to Peru. They customized everything based on our needs. We dealt with Emanuele for the quote and trip planning part and then with Gianni regarding the on-site assistance. Both very precise, fast, quick, and attentive to the customer's needs. Top-notch 24/7 on-site assistance. Consult Perù Etico, they are truly good.

Peru, an unforgettable trip! Certainly first and foremost for the extraordinary beauty of this vast territory, which amazed us more every day.

 Verified PerùEtico for an unforgettable experience.
I highly recommend anyone planning a trip to the wonderful land of Peru to rely on Perù Etico. Thanks to Perù Etico, it was possible for us to visit many different places in 15 days, moving through Peru with an impeccable organization of time and transportation. The 24/7 assistance from a dedicated person is very reliable, as well as the detailed travel itinerary accompanied by recommendations for the best restaurants at the various stops (which we enjoyed so much!!! the food in Peru is fantastic!!). Thanks to the application provided by Perù Etico, you always have all the necessary information at your fingertips to travel and organize yourself during the various stops. We will definitely rely on this tour operator again for other trips to Latin America. A thank you to the whole staff, to Emanuele for the assistance in the initial phase of planning the trip, and to Gianni for his exquisite availability during the trip. Thanks to Perù Etico, the travel experience was authentic and genuine, just as I had wished!

 Verified The colors of Peru
Trip to Peru with Peru Etico, a local tour operator that provided us with various tips on accommodations and itineraries, and with prepared and reliable guides and drivers who accompanied us for most of the trip. A nice experience in the Amazon and sleeping at a local family's home on the island of Taquile. We especially thank Emanuele for the initial preparation of the trip and Camilo for the support on-site. A nice experience to recommend..

 Verified Fantastic Peru
Together with my wife, I took a 12-day trip to Peru organized by Perù Etico. The trip was planned and customized by Emanuele in relation to our needs and requests. Emanuele proved to be a very empathetic person and extremely quick to respond to my emails in which I asked for information or other things. The organization of the tour was done very well, and all the bureaucratic part was also handled in a quick and efficient way. A very interesting idea is to create an always-updated app within which everything you need is included: itinerary, tickets, hotels, etc. etc. During the tour, we had constant and direct support from Camilo, who proved to be a very helpful person and attentive to managing the practical activities of the trip as well as any specific needs. Kudos also to the guides and drivers who supported us on this trip, knowledgeable, sociable, and very helpful, in particular to Louis and Edwin with whom we spent most of the time. The trip was overall very beautiful and interesting. If I have to indicate what we liked most, I would say Machu Picchu and the day-and-a-half experience in the home of a local family on the island of Taquile. Elisabeth and her family treated us very well and let us live an authentic experience on this beautiful island. Cristian

 Verified A Peru to be experienced, not just visited
We just returned from a beautiful trip to Peru, organized with great attention and with an itinerary that allowed us to truly discover the country. We particularly appreciated the preparation and availability of the guides, always attentive and capable of helping us get to know places, history, and culture in an engaging way. One of the best memories is certainly the day spent with a local family in Taquile: an authentic and very moving experience, which allowed us to get to know their daily life up close and which we will carry with us as one of the most special moments of the trip. Serious and reliable organization, which we definitely recommend!
