| You will find all the information required to prepare your trip: a list of embassies, vaccinations, weather, what to take with you... • Visa requirement and embassies When staying in Bolivia for less than three months citizens of the E.U. do not require a visa, however it is advisable to check with the Bolivian Embassy in your country. • Vaccinations If you plan to visit the Bolivian Amazon, the Jesuit Missions in Santa Cruz or Yungas, as a precaution you should get a Yellow Fever shot. This only becomes effective 15 days after its application. When travelling to the tropical regions preventive treatment against malaria may be taken. • What to take with you For the high Plateau (altiplano) you will need warm clothing, but bearing in mind that during the day especially in winter, it can be hot in the sun and quite chilly in the shade. In summer there are frequent downpours, so a raincoat is essential. Because of the altitude, the sun is strong and you should take sunglasses, a hat and sunscreen. If you plan to visit the Salt Lake, try to take a sleeping bag suitable for low temperatures. When visiting the Amazon region it is advisable to have long-sleeved clothing, preferably light-coloured. Those visiting the jungle must ensure a change of footwear, since they can get quite dirty treading through the swamps. |
