Traveller Tips
  • Confirm your flight well in advance as schedules are irregular and subject to weather cancellations.
  • Carry local bolivianos cash as there are no ATMs or card facilities in the immediate area.

  • Pack insect repellent and appropriate tropical gear, as the surrounding wetlands host abundant wildlife and insects.
