by Yso

Rurrenabaque - Bolivian Amazon jungle tours:These tours are all listed as being 'Eco' which actually stands for Economical and not ecological. The tour company that we were with (just 2 people with a guide and cook for 4 days) did not hesitate to cut down EIGHT trees in a national park in order to buld a raft, they also cut down small trees each night to build a campsite - when they could have just as easiliy carried 2 man dome tents with built in mozzie nets..... please try to ensure that your tour is as eco friendly as possible, also tyr to only pay half before leaving to garantee the standard of tour that you are receiving

by Sirod

The mercado food looks really good, tasts good, is (very) cheap, autentical and it is fun to chat with the Bolivians there. But sometimes Hepatitis and Thypus ... is going around there. So have seen your doctor before for this infusiones and maybe not eat there.

by Turco

Do not trust just any tourist book guide when it comes to Bolivia, otherwise you would only see what everyone else has seen and which is probably not nearly as good as what you can experience. The only book I have read that describes Bolivia fairly well and gives you the best information is “The Lonely Planet’s Bolivia”, this doesn’t mean whatever they published on their web site I mean the real book.I found many of the tourist book guides to focus on the places close to Peru (which are very similar to what you would see in Peru), and not mentioning or misinforming about other great places (some really cool ones which you can only see in Bolivia)!

Not realy important but you can't get La Paz sigars in La Paz. So don't promise this at home.

If you go to the Titicaca lake avoid the tourist agencies. They will only suck your money right out and you can have a much better time just by catching the morning bus at the Cementerio terminal.

Internet in Copacabana, just off the border of Peru: 20 B$ per hour!!! In La Paz it's only 5 B$ and in Puno it's 2 S/.Beware: they don't warn you before you start, so ask!
