This isn’t just a tour; it’s a transformational journey to the epicenter where 20th century history changed course. We invite you to relive Ernesto "Che" Guevara's odyssey in Bolivia (1966 - 1967), tracing the tactical paths of his last fights that time has preserved intact. You will walk through deep gorges and footprints full of mystique, where the past comes alive in every corner of the landscape.
Follow the mystical route from La Higuera to Vallegrande, discovering where its eternal legend was born. Let yourself be engulfed by the wild nature of the Andes, breathtaking panoramic views of breathtaking beauty and excellent local cuisine that rescues the most authentic flavors of our Bolivian valleys.
It is the perfect balance between the intensity of the historical story and the freedom of the mountain. A vibrant, peculiar and profound experience that is not only visited... lived with the soul.

5.00As someone who admires Che, I've been wanting to do this tour for some time. It's an amazing tour, well worth it! The days are long but the journey to Vallegrande and La Higuera is amazing, with epic scenery to enjoy. Of course you visit all the 'Che places', and I also really loved the rustic but charming lodge in La Higuera. All in all completely worth it.

5.00I was able to relive history. It was a great experience. And best of all, the tour company was very flexible with all the itinerary changes, flight cancellations, and delays that kept happening, and I was able to fully enjoy the tour!
