Tiwanaku was a large part of why I came to Bolivia, and though they are broke and need funds to complete work there, it was well worth the visit.

“Very Old Dynasty”
2
people found this review helpful
This place is still an archeological site and will be for the next 20 years. It is amazing what they have done here. 3500 BCE incredible. Be careful what you book i.e check and make sure that lunch is/isn't included as mine was included and I was charged 30B, I got the money back later. Bring your own drinks to the lunch stop as the lady charges 8B for the small coke that costs1B elsewhere.

“Could be another Wonder of the World”
A really good experience into pre-Inca culture. It is essential to have a guide, who can explain the site. Would be wonderful to see this World Heritage site fully excavated.

“Amazing”

people found this review helpful
This was the highlight of my trip to Bolivia. If you take a tour from La Paz, I highly recommend a private tour with tour guide Eduardo from the Rosario hotel- he made this visit unforgettable. Whatever you do, do not miss seeing Puma Punku nearby- it is absolutely unbelievable.
