Amazon Basin

Before we left for our trip to the pampa, we paid our travel agency in advance to buy us a flight ticket to la paz and were told everything was arranged. After our trip we recognized that they tried to buy our ticket on the same day and there were no seats left!
So, buy your tickets directly from the office of the airlines! (in advance)

For the pampa-tour make sure you get a jeep (4x4) to get there! Were told to get a jeep and had to go by a van - needed twice the time on wet and muddy roads!

Pampa-Tour: Make sure you put dry clothes (even underwear) in a plastic bag separately. On a rainy day, on the boat back from the camp, you will be soaked, all of your bags ( and everything inside) will be soaked!

Hotel Rosario is very nice and cheap for a 5* as it is Bolivia! Isla del Sol is a must as the views and scenary are amazing and so quiet. Avoid chocolate from Street Vendors as I got a Kitkat which was dated 01 and it was 06......

This place has got to be a must when in boliva. The town is really relaxing though remember take cash as there is no atm so i had to borrow money to pay for me airport transfer. The pampas tour is brill but go with the right company( cant remember mine but it was run by an isreali guy.) And i would take a plane as the bus was well hatful and ours was pretty short 21 hours.

Rurrembaque is a small quiet town on the rio Beni. It is a good starting point for every kind of adventure in the tropical jungle. The most common way to reach Rurre is by a small airplain from La Paz. Be careful that you come down from 4000 to 0 m in 45 minutes: this may cause you to feel uncomfortable. And the way back is amazing: the very small airplane will pass by the nevado Chacaltaya (over 500m). be prepared for turbolences...

Make a Selva-Tour (Jungle) with BALA-Tours, if you speak spanish choose René as a guide, he is a fantastic guide in the jungle, knows a lot about plants and animals and you will walk a lot in the beautiful Beni.Be careful in the rainseason, if it's raining hard it's not possible to fly back to La Paz from Rurrenabaque!

Bring a lot of mosquito repelent and sun protection. Don't forget to eat Jalea and Sonsos, Arepas and Majadito de Pato.

Sun Proteccion and Anti-bugs are a must!

the chipeast hotel used to be Hotel America, fantastic view of the river, but is nice also the hotel santa rosa!
