Hacienda Cayara & Villacolo Day Trip

At 8 am, we'll meet in front of the Casa de la Moneda and set off on our day trip to some of the most iconic places surrounding the Villa Imperial de Potosí.

On the way we'll make a stop to visit the Devil's Cave, a local natural attraction. Afterwards we'll head to the historic Hacienda Cayara, which dates back to 1557, the first hacienda built in Bolivia.

The estate also serves as a hostel and houses a museum. We'll learn about its history by visiting the manor house and its rooms, which contain valuable objects, colonial-era architecture, and beautiful paintings.

After visiting the hacienda we'll head to Villacolo, which is a 1-hour drive away. At Villacolo, we'll visit its dam and enjoy the scenery surrounding the reservoir.

We'll then pass by a cave to see cave paintings before stopping for a picnic lunch of a burger, fruit, and water.

After a day of exploration, we'll return to the city and drop you off at around 4 pm.
