San José de Chiquitos & Chochís 2-Day Private Tour
San José de Chiquitos & Chochís 2-Day Private Tour
Day 1
At 8 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Santa Cruz de la Sierra and set off for San José de Chiquitos.
This town in eastern Bolivia is one of the most important missionary reductions established by the Jesuits during the 17th century. Once we get there, we'll take a tour of the town and visit a workshop where we'll see how local handicrafts are made first-hand.
Feeling peckish yet? At 12:30 pm, we'll have a typical Chiquitano lunch that includes a starter and a main course. We'll then visit the Mission Church of San José and its museum, where we'll see excellent examples of Hispanic religious architecture.
Our day will finish with a tour of Santa Cruz la Vieja Park, where the ruins of the first foundation of this city are located.
Day 2
Rise and shine! We'll have breakfast bright and early at 7:30 am and drive through the Chiquitania region to Chochís.
This town, which is famous for its beautiful scenery, has been declared a site of Bolivian Cultural and Natural Heritage. When we get there, we'll see the Mariano de la Torre Sanctuary. This small chapel built at the foot of the Cerro Chochís mountain blends in so well with its scenic surroundings that it gives the impression of the temple being nestled inside the rock.
After learning more about the culture of this area, we'll head to the Los Hervores Spa. You'll have 2 hours of free time here to bathe in its hot springs. Afterwards, we'll stop for lunch in the village of Roboré.
We'll then start our return journey to Santa Cruz de la Sierra. Our arrival back at your hotel is scheduled for 10 pm.
