Bolivia Backroads

Mohammad Chowdhury (Bolivia Backroads, Jul 2007)
Most people would say, when booking this trip, "Bolivia?! Why Bolivia? What's there?!" I would tell them "Bolivia, why not?" - they don't realize they are missing out in seeing such great wonders of the country, everything from the colonial charm of Sucre, to the salt flats, to the rugged landscape of Bolivia and to a vast, visible sky for great star gazing.

Chalalan Lodge - Bolivian Amazon

Susan Etheridge (Chalalan Lodge + Jesuit Missions, Apr 2009)
The Chalalan was wonderful, amazing they can maintain such high quality so far from civilization. Reasonable Hotel in Santa Cruz but great in Concepcion - amazingly nice place so far from everything.

The people at Chalalan are amazing, superb guide Rigoberto, great food and everyone trying so hard and accomplishing so much. They should be encouraged as what they are doing is very difficult but necessary.

Mercedes is amazing and her driver Javier the safest we have ever had. She speaks beautiful English, knows everyone in the Mission area of Bolivia and has wonderful insight on the area. I was not very excited about this part of the trip BEFORE we did it but LOVED it. There is much to do there and a nice hotel - the Grand Hotel of Concepcion. I would definitely recommend it.

I had another fabulous trip with Adventure Life! Bolivia is great! The Chalalan Lodge experience is just fantastic. Madidi Park is everyone's dream of a rainforest-lush, beautiful, and filled with wildlife. The trip up the Beni River is spectacular.

Everyone at the lodge was super. Ricoberto, our guide, was knowledgeable, friendly, and enthusiastic. The meals were delicious and the service was great. Every time I got back from a hike someone was waiting to greet me with a glass of cold lemonade.
More than that, the atmosphere was very friendly. I met people from all over, and like me they were fascinated by the area and wildlife they encountered along their hikes. Every evening we spent "Happy Hour" looking up animals in the guidebooks the Lodge has available. This was a fabulous tour!
