Santa Cruz Resorts - Reviews and Rates

So the goodbyes were said, the hugging was done and then they were off. Mi companeros were off to Buenos Aires for their last leg before heading home. My plan was to get the bus to Bolivia and head for Sucre which is meant to be a pretty place. Just my luck. Demonstrations and a few people killed helped me change my plans. So I flew to Santa Cru...

We´ve been kicking back in Santa Cruz in central Bolivia for the last few days while we wait for our train to the border with Brazil (about 500km further east). We took a flight here on Monday evening, having decided that we didn´t actually need to find out what it feels like to travel for 20 odd hours over bumpy roads in a rattle trap bus (we´d...

Friday August 3rd, Santa Cruz Today's task was to see about getting visas for Brazil. After our experience in La Paz where we had to produce a plethora of documents and wait 5 days, it was a breeze. Initially we were told we had to have this and that and wait 72 hours, but then a nice English-speaking lady came and listened to our tale of why we...

Ziskavam pocit, ze tu nedelam nic jineho nez jezdim autobusem a pak o tom pisu :-) Aby tomu tak nebylo, vypravily jsme se do pristavu sehnat lod, kterou bychom mohly pokracovat dale na jih, smer Paraguay. Jako vzdy kdyz se nam to nehodi, leje jako z konve. Dobehnem k busokamionum a cely stastny koupime listky do pristavu, jako ze jsme to nasly. ...

En gewoon de sfeer int algemeen van bolivie is super, iederee...

Hello Everyone, Its been a really hectic week since my last update, done loads of things, I´ll try not to make this too long... We set of from Campo Grande last Saturday (11th) heading for the pantanal which is a massive wetland area teeming with wildlife. The journey was 4 hours in a minibus then 3.5 hours into the pantanal on a jeep. The jeep ...

The miles are starting to take their toll now with the longest travel times yet. We left the Pantanal at 7am and trucked it to the Bolivian border, crossed, and then caught the overnight train to Santa Cruz, finally arriving at our hotel at 9am the following morning. The next morning it was up at 6am to catch an aeroplane to Sucre, but at 3pm th...

This afternoon I went to the River Pirai on the outskirts of Santa Cruz. It's a place where the locals flock to at weekend to escape the heat, especially in summer. We hired some quadbikes which were great. The first 10 minutes were scary because the steering wasn't exactle stable. Splashing through the water was fantastic but I was concerned wh...
