Other information on visiting Bolivia

Visa      Visa is required for U.S. Citizens. It can be requested at the nearest Bolivian consulate. Most of Europe and the rest of English speaking countries do not require visa. To see the list of countries that do not require visa check this page Bolivian consulate

Flights.  Most flights that arrive to La Paz do it through Lima, Peru. We recommend LAN airlines over TACA.

Vaccines and health.    Our recommendation is that you don’t vaccinate yourself for anything, and that you don’t take any type of preventive medicine like Malaria pills. These diseases are very rare, and many more dangerous health situations occur from the reactions to these medications than the diseases they supposedly prevent. At your arrival in La Paz, they may ask you if you're visiting tropical areas. We recommend you say no, that way they won't require any vaccinations. Otherwise, they may ask for a yellow fever vaccination certificate.
