Visão geral do Bolivia

The high elevations of the Andean mountain range, descend into the steamy tropical jungle regions of the Amazon. The one thing that Bolivia does not have is a sea border, which was taken from them by Chile during the Atacama border dispute during the war of the Pacific in 1884. Since then, Bolivia has been a landlocked country. Bolivia is a large country geographically but has a relatively low population count with just over 10 million inhabitants. These people can generally be found in the cities such as La Paz, Sucre, Santa Cruz and Potosi. A large part of the country is covered in jungle and is also the home to a wide range of animal species and the biodiversity is even greater due to the geography of the country. Bolivia is renowned as being somewhat politically unstable but has regained a certain amount of stability in recent years under the government of Morales. Bolivia is also "infamous" for its massive cocaine production and exportation. The coca leaf is legally grown in the country and it is suggested that it forms a significant, yet illegal part of the Bolivian economy. Bolivia however remains one of the most exciting places to visit in South America, which its cultural traditions still intact, its stunning mountains, Lake Titicaca, The Uyuni salt flats and The Amazon jungle. The country is a backpacker's paradise as it is really cheap to travel with lots to see and do. Life is a little more basic and rugged than in other parts of Latin America, but this naturalness only adds to the Bolivian charm and the country is still one of the safest places to visit in the Americas!

Excellent experience

We have spent 10 days in Peru on a school trip and Valencia Travel was the local partner. We were very pleased with the itinerary and the support from our guides and drivers. We spent several days in Cusco, then went to a local Cacao Farm and after of course Aguas Calientes. Everyone in the group had a great time and our guide Ronaldo tried his best to ensure all needs were met.

Best travel guide and company for our family trip to Machu Picchu

Our family of 5 (2 adults and 3 kids) did the short Inka trail to Machu Picchu and our guide Carlos Caceres was the best! He made our trip to Machu Picchu very special and memorable. He was very experienced, kind, patient and always made sure we were taken care of. The trip went so smoothly because of Carlos. From making sure we got on trains to buses to trail crossings to restaurants in town, he was always on top of it. Highly recommend Valencia Travel Cusco and Carlos as your guide. We were grateful for everything.

Everyday was a wonderful adventure

We have just finished 14 days in Peru with Valencia Travel. We had Ronaldo as our guide. Everyday was a wonderful adventure, made all the better by Ronaldo’s extensive knowledge of Peru and the Inca’s and his wonderful care of our group. Ronaldo is a gifted tour guide who brought Peru to life - the culture, the history and the vibrancy of the people. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic

We went on a short Inka Trail hike with Valencia Travel Cusco for 2 days. Private tour - just my husband and me and our fantastic guide Nicholson. It was an amazing experience- from the first meet up to talk about the details until our trip back to Cusco. Perfectly organized. We had a wonderful time. Nicholson made sure that we enjoy every minute of this trip. He provided support , motivation and encouragement. He made sure we always felt comfortable and could enjoy the trail in our pace. We learned a lot and made great memories. Those days were the highlight of our time in Peru and Nicholson made it very special.

Our guide Louis was the best guide ever! The sourroundings where really amazing and all the team made the Inka trail a super adventure. I got problem with the altitude and Louis made the differens to make the 4-day excursion an extraordinary experience.

Fantastic experience with great guide

Our family hiked the Inca Trail in July 2026. We had been looking forward to this trek for a long time and had very high expectations. However, everything we experienced — from the breathtaking nature to the exceptional service provided by the tour operator — far exceeded even our wildest dreams. It was absolutely amazing! We were fortunate to have an outstanding guide, Louis, a talented chef, Julio, and a team of 10 porters supporting our family of four. The level of service we received throughout the entire journey was truly world-class. I highly recommend Valencia Travel in Cusco, and especially Guide Louis, to anyone who wants to experience this incredible adventure. Andreas, Sweden

Machu Picchu

My partner and I have had Machu Picchu on our bucket list for many years, and we were finally able to experience not only Machu Picchu but so many other incredible sights across Peru through TripADeal. Although one of our day trips was cancelled due to some poor management on TripADeal’s behalf, I want to give a massive shout-out to our guide, Ruben. He made our adventure around Peru a truly amazing experience. We were part of a large group, and while there were a few hiccups along the way, Ruben handled everything with remarkable calm, professionalism, and ease. I would definitely recommend Ruben as a guide for any expedition my friends or family may decide to embark on. We give Ruben 4.5 stars for making our Peru experience so memorable.
