Description

The Death Road is one of Bolivia's most outstanding activities. Internationally known as the most sensational tour in South America, this exciting bike ride showcases some of Bolivia's most impressive landscapes, beautiful mountains, and waterfalls. At Evolution Adventure Travel, we pride ourselves on providing the best in safety, professionalism, and fun. BIKE TOUR PROGRAM: 1. Pick-up starts at 7 a.m., when the tour guide will pick you up at your hotel (if you are arriving from another department, we will pick you up at the terminal or airport). We will then head to our workshop where all our equipment is located. There you can enjoy breakfast before heading to the summit. 2. Here you will be given your bikes and all the instructions to follow during the day. The Death Road tour is approximately 65 km long, and we begin the descent at 4,700 meters above sea level. This first part covers 22 km on a paved road to Unduavi and can take 45 minutes. 3. Then we will board our vehicle for a short trip to Chuspipata, from where it is 41 km to Yolosa. Here we will begin the most adventurous part of the tour, as the road becomes narrower and unpaved, surrounded by vegetation and small waterfalls. This second part of the descent takes around 3 hours or more, including several stops to rest and provide you with an energy snack. 4. Unlimited drinking water will be provided throughout the tour, and our support vehicle will follow closely behind the group so you can get on and off as many times as you need. Also, keep in mind that the temperature will increase as we head towards the Yungas, so we suggest dressing in layers and leaving your extra clothes in the vehicle during stops. 6. Although we provide helmets with Go-Pro mounts and you are welcome to bring your own camera, you don't have to worry about taking photos and videos during the trip; the tour guide will take them for you. 7. Finally, we will take you to our Hotel Villa Verde, where you will enjoy a delicious lunch. Here we will have free time to take a refreshing dip in the pool and enjoy the showers before continuing our journey back to La Paz (approximately 3 hours by car). We will drop you off directly at your hotel or preferred location between 7:15 and 8 pm. OPTIONAL ACTIVITY Passing the San Juan waterfalls, we arrive at the zip line point located in the community of Ninoska, stopping at the 500-meter zip line, including all necessary equipment. We then continue biking (this will take approximately 45 extra minutes). PRICE OF THE ZIP LINE ACTIVITY $US 13
