San Javier & Concepción Day Trip
Pickup is at 7 am, followed by a drive to the villages of Cotoca, Pailas, Paillón, and Los Troncos, significant to the Bolivian Jesuit Missions.
During the journey, you will learn about these reductions, established at the end of the 17th century to evangelize the New World. Currently, Bolivia has six towns recognized as World Heritage Sites.

Following lunch, explore this 18th-century site and its various arts and crafts workshops, where local Chiquitanos produce traditional goods to support the mission economy.

At 7:30 am, drive to the Jesuit Mission of San José. After a 4-hour journey across the Bolivian countryside, visit the church and its museum.
