Samaipata offers you trekking in seductive scenarios where your friends and your family play the leading roles under our experienced staff of adventure and ecotourism guides. With cordiality and professionalism, our tour directors give information that instill respect and love for the natural elements and cultural monuments you visit as well as what shapes the conservation of those resources we so desperately need.
The attractions most well known are El Fuerte or “The Fort”, the thousand year old, pre-Incan temple, declared a Cultural Humanities Heritage site by UNESCO; the biologically diverse and easily accessible southern zone of the Amboró National Park, numerous waterfalls and nearby Rock Paintings. The hikes in this region are exercises rich in scenery and encounters with flora, fauna and new archeological sites.
These journeys also present a wonderful opportunity to gradually adapt to the stress of high altitude itineraries. We include tours of several days, cargo burros and all the necessary camping equipment.
Having everything to satisfactorily meet the goals of the traveler, we have diversified our hikes to the pleasure and particular capacities of each visitor, adapting to market requirements that each day become more specialized.
Michael, I just want you to know that Bolivia was the best part of my trip and especially that unforgettable trip herding cattle along mountains and rivers. You have a beautiful horseback ride from picturesque Samaipata to the mystic El Fuerte. Your camping site near the stream is perfect and the views are unforgettable. You should offer as an extension of your program the improvised time we shared with Samaipata farmers and cowboys. What a tasty combination: corn purée and cheese wrapped in cornhusks with blackberry wine. I loved everything so much that now I want to move there! I will surely be back someday and perhaps then I can take that ceramic piece we fired in corral. Love to Gaby and Schatzie.
