Cochabamba High Valley And City Tour

1. Cochabamba - High Valley (Morning)

In the morning we head to the Valle Alto (high valley), where our trip takes us to the rural roots of Cochabamba’s society. In the villages of the area, we will be able to appreciate living traditions, colonial and religious architecture, farmers’ markets, and a lot more. Our visit begins in the small colonial town of Tarata, which was once the capital of Bolivia.

We visit the church (depending on its irregular opening hours) and the Franciscan convent. Then we go on to the village of Huayculi, where the thousand-year-old tradition of pottery is kept alive, and visit a potter’s workshop. To end the morning, we pass through the village of Cliza and head to La Angostura Lake to have lunch in a typical restaurant whose specialty is fish. After lunch, we return to Cochabamba and begin the city visit.

2. Cochabamba - City Tour (Afternoon)

The tour begins with a visit to “La Cancha”, the biggest market in Cochabamba. There we will get to know a variety of typical products of the different ecological tiers of the Cochabamba region, traditional medicine, handicrafts, and the daily life of the vendors. Then we move on to visit “Palacio Portales”, an eclectic mansion built by tin-baron Simón I. Patiño. To wrap things up, we go to the San Pedro hill with its emblematic Christ statue, where we enjoy a panoramic view of the city. End of our services
