Just two and a half hours in a 'shared taxi' from Sucre to Potosi. Not a great selection of hotels so, after checking a couple of grotty looking options, opted for an 'upmarket' one (over twice the price of the Sucre hotel, but still under 40 Euros!).

I catch a bus from Zona Del Cementry to Copacabana for 2 pm getting to town around 6 pm. The cost is about 15Bs if you get it at the station. The ride is great.
