Package holiday to Sucre

Sucre, the "White City" of Bolivia, is the constitutional capital of the country and one of South America's best-kept travel secrets. Located at an altitude of 2,810 meters, the UNESCO World Heritage city enchants with its uniformly white colonial architecture, a pleasant spring climate year-round, and a relaxed atmosphere that starkly contrasts with the bustling La Paz.

The Plaza 25 de Mayo, the heart of the city, is surrounded by magnificent colonial buildings: the cathedral, the Casa de la Libertad (where Bolivia's Declaration of Independence was signed), and the government palace. On sunny afternoons, locals gather under the palm trees, shoeshiners offer their services, and students from the nearby university — one of the oldest in the Americas — enliven the scene.

Sucre has made a name for itself as a learning destination for Spanish. Dozens of language schools offer affordable one-on-one lessons (often under €10 per hour), and the combination of pure Bolivian Spanish, the pleasant climate, and the safe, student-friendly atmosphere makes the city an ideal place for a language stay.

The Mercado Central is a culinary adventure. On two floors, market women in traditional Pollera skirts offer Salteñas (Bolivian empanadas with a sweet, juicy filling), Chicharrón (crispy pork), and Api (hot corn drink). The food is authentic, delicious, and incredibly cheap.

A unique experience is offered by the Parque Cretácico — a nearly vertical rock face on the outskirts of the city, where over 5,000 dinosaur footprints from the Cretaceous period are preserved. It is the largest collection of dinosaur footprints in the world, and the thought that Tyrannosaurus and sauropods once walked here leaves one speechless.

The surroundings of Sucre offer hikes to indigenous communities of the Yampara culture, whose traditional weaving art is among the most intricate in South America, as well as excursions to the thermal springs of Tarabuco.

Sucre particularly impresses with fascinating culture. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
