Please note
that the program is subject to changes depending on the number of
participants
since this meeting is limited in numbers.
Price of package single per person and double for two people, includes the Hotel costs for 8 nights.
Please note that good restaurants cost between 10 and 15 US$ per person, so that prices are quite low compared to 1st world countries.
*Airport to Hotel Pick-up transport included.
** The flight to Rurrenabaque is independent of the program and not included in this package. Bolivia is a big country with great distances so this flight starts early in the morning and it includes a visit to the Reserve Park.The return flight is programmed for late afternoon. It is a true paradise!!!
Please note that we were originally planing on going to the Salt Lakes, but we have been informed the landing field is in construction, and will be unavailable for a while. However if anyone is interested in going anyway, it can be done by train and/or bus and this can be arranged. But your need 3 extra days. Just let us know you are interested.
