About Bolivia
Bolivia has evolved in the last years to become today a sustainable tourist destination in which respect for nature is always present, where the connection between the local people and the visitor represents a genuine exchange and a great cultural wealth. Guarding the riches of their ecosystem has allowed Bolivia to position itself as a destination of large wild areas where the fauna and flora are preserved and observed like nowhere else.
The climate of Bolivia varies drastically from one eco-region to the other, from the tropics in the eastern llanos to a polar climate in the western Andes. The summers are warm and humid in the east and dry in the west, with rains that often modify temperatures, humidity, winds, and atmospheric pressure, yielding very different climates in different areas.
In Bolivia, people are culturally, racially, and socially diverse, a clear reflection of the over 36 native indigenous groups that have inhabited the country’s various regions for thousands of years, and a result of the historical assimilation of other races over time. Aymara and Quechua (2 million), Chiquitano (180,000) and Guaraní (125,000) are the four largest of Bolivia’s indigenous ethnic groups. Bolivia also has a small Afro Bolivian segment in the Yungas region.
