6d5n Charming Bolivia
The sceneries in Bolivia are truly unique. This landlocked Andean nation boasts some of the most extreme, diverse topographies on the planet. At a dizzying 3650 meters (11,975 feet) above sea level, snow-capped mountains frame La Paz. Pristine Lake Titicaca, the highest navigable lake in the world, is so impressive it almost looks like an ocean from its shores. The Salar de Uyuni is iconic in its otherworldly splendor.
