We’ll begin at the iconic Plaza 25 de Mayo, the historical heart of the city, where I’ll introduce you to Sucre’s rich colonial past and the key buildings that surround the square. From there, we’ll visit the University of San Francisco Xavier, one of the oldest universities in the Americas, with deep roots in Bolivia’s educational and revolutionary history. Next, we’ll head to the vibrant Central Market, where you’ll get a taste of local life. Discover traditional ingredients, regional fruits, and Bolivian culinary customs.
