Travel tips for Bolivia

  • 1

    Always carry small bills ( Bolivianos) for markets, buses, and tips, as change can be hard to find in remote areas.

  • 2

    Visit high-altitude destinations like La Paz or Potosí first to acclimatize—altitude sickness is real and can ruin your trip if ignored.

  • 3

    Take overnight buses for long distances to save on accommodation and maximize daylight for exploring.
