La Paz to Rio de Janeiro

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

La Paz, Bolivia sits at over 3,600 metres above sea level, making it one of the highest capital cities in the world, and is a gateway to the Andes, the Bolivian salt flats of Uyuni, and the shores of Lake Titicaca. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is one of South America's most iconic cities, famed for its dramatic landscape of mountains and beaches, the Christ the Redeemer statue, Copacabana and Ipanema shores, and its world-renowned Carnival. The overland route between the two cities takes travellers through some of the continent's most diverse terrain — Andean highlands, Amazon basin edges, and the Brazilian interior — passing through countries rich in culture, wildlife, and history. It's a classic South American adventure drawing independent travellers and groups keen to experience the full sweep of the continent.
