Overview

This full-day bike tour starts in La Paz and covers about 64 kilometers as participants bike down the Death Road from 4,200 meters in the Andes to 1,200 meters at the entrance to the Bolivian Amazon. The total duration is around 11 to 12 hours, including hotel pickup from selected locations. The tour begins at Vertigo Biking Bolivia, where riders receive a full suspension bike and safety equipment fitted to their size. From there, the group travels by vehicle to La Cumbre, the starting point of the ride, where guides provide safety instructions and explain the route during a 45-minute briefing. The biking portion lasts approximately 4 to 5 hours, descending along the Death Road. The first stop is at Unduavi, the checkpoint marking the end of the paved section, where all riders must register and take a 20-minute break. The tour finishes at Yolosa, where participants have 90 minutes to shower, relax in the swimming pool, and enjoy a buffet lunch. Professional English-speaking guides trained in safety and rescue accompany the group throughout the day. Included in the tour are transportation by private vehicle, snacks, water, lunch, hotel pickup from selected hotels, the full suspension bike, safety equipment, and photos and videos documenting the day. Drinks during lunch, entrance fees, and optional items such as a T-shirt are not included. Vegetarian meals can be requested in advance. Riders must be at least 18 years old and weigh no more than 208 pounds. After the tour, guides can assist with arranging transport to Coroico for those continuing on to Rurrenabaque.
