Getting around Bolivia
Long-distance buses link every city cheaply; pay extra for tourist-class companies with seatbelts and rested drivers. BoA flies between the main cities, saving long, blockade-prone road trips.
Key facts
- Ride-hailing apps: Yango, Uber, inDrive.
- Driving: on the right. Carry a 1949 International Driving Permit together with the home licence; police and rental firms ask for both.
- Boliviana de Aviación (BoA)
- Mi Teleférico (La Paz–El Alto cable cars)
