OVERVIEWOVERVIEW

Bolivia's first hop-on/hop-off tourist bus service from Puno to Copacabana to La Paz, with Sun Island tour (Copacabana) avaialble for an extra price. Flexible dates. Safe, reliable and fun! Daily departures from both Puno and Copacabana. 


Early in the morning, the bus picks you up from your central accommodation at around 8.30 and leaves from Puno onto Bolivia, a short 2.5 hour journey to the border. The English-speaking guides on the bus will help you with all formalities and make sure everything goes smoothly and help with any problems you might have.

Once safely into Bolivia, arrival at the lakeside town of Copacabana is within just half an hour. Famous for the Sun Island (Isla del Sol), you can decide to get on our private boat to visit the southern part of the island. This is a 4-hour round trip including a roughly one hour walk visiting the sun temple and a spectacular viewpoint and you can include it in the booking. You have the choice of staying overnight on the island itself to witness the spectacular sunsets or back in Copacabana and catching the next Bolivia Hop bus to La Paz that leaves daily at 18.00. You will be dropped off at your central accommodation at around 22.30.

- 2 drivers for every journey over 5 hours... drivers swap every 4 hours
- Large team of drivers... drivers not overworked/tired as is often the case on other buses
- Bus assistant always on board - regular checks on the drivers
- Seatbelts for every passenger
- Speedometre alert - when bus goes over 90km/h an alarm will go off throughout the bus warning the driver to slow down
- 24 hour GPS monitoring for longer journeys - every bus is monitored from a secure point via GPS... we always know where the bus is and if it is taking any unscheduled stops
- Constant contact between the drivers/guide to the Bolivia Hop office via telephone
- No tight deadlines - drivers under no pressure to arrive at a certain time, no need for increased speed or unnecessary risks
  • This bus does not leave on December 25th.
