Bolivia Tours

It is comforting to experience Bolivia and realize that modern culture has never succeeded in replacing age old tradition and a way of life virtually unchanged for centuries. Though in La Paz you will see men in business suits and women in blue jeans, alongside there will be Indian women in derby hats and colorful petticoats nine layers deep.
As most of the country lives at altitudes of more than 2 miles above sea level, there is a sense that when the women in the Witches Market offer a cure for sickness and a prescription for wealth and love, that perhaps their proximity to heaven affords their potions a strength not encountered elsewhere. The high altitude of Lake Titicaca , the highest navigable lake in the world, is mystical not only in feeling but, according to many, in reality as well. This is where the Inca Empire is said to have been founded, and legend has it that centuries ago the Incas made a yearly sacred pilgrimage from Copacabana to the Sun Island.
