This is a trip designed and created entirely by an expert WeRoad Coordinator. The Coordinator takes care of the entire trip: from defining the itinerary to selecting accommodations and on-site experiences. Through WeRoad you can book the trip and manage it in your personal area, like any other WeRoad.
Few places in the world are so surreal that they make you feel like you're walking on another planet: the Salar de Uyuni, the largest salt flat in the world, is one of them! On this journey dedicated to nature and adventure, you will be able to live many unforgettable experiences between Chile and Bolivia , traveling hundreds of kilometers in the highest part of the Andes , reaching up to 5,000 meters, admiring uncontaminated landscapes that seem to have come out of a Dalì painting. We will leave from Santiago and the colorful Valparaíso to arrive in the far north of Chile, in San Pedro de Atacama , famous for the desert of the same name at 2,500 meters above sea level. Here we will admire the Martian landscapes of the Valle de la Luna , the highest geothermal field in the world, El Tatio , with 64 active geysers, and the many lagoons where we can even swim! To top it all off, we will admire the celestial vault of the southern hemisphere on an astronomical tour in the middle of the desert!
We will then set off towards Bolivia with our 4x4 jeeps for days of pure adventure among colorful lagoons, volcanic lakes and flocks of flamingos, until we reach the largest salt lake in the world: the immense Salar de Uyuni . Have you ever slept in a hotel made of salt ? Well, get ready for this unique experience! We will then continue to Potosí and Sucre , ancient colonial cities, before reaching the highest capital in the world, La Paz , with its colorful streets, local specialties and the characteristic cable car that will take us to admire its grandeur and beauty from El Alto . Ok, no more spoilers! We assure you that the emotions you will experience in front of so much nature will be unique and unforgettable and you will continue to look at the photos taken on the trip for months and months!

In this place, as desolate as it is suggestive, we will find dozens of historic steam trains and locomotives, dating back to the 19th century, when the city was a locomotive factory. We will be able to climb on the wrecks and, with the right light of the late afternoon, take incredible photos!

However, Potosí is famous for its silver mine , a symbol of the exploitation and extermination of the local population by the Spanish conquistadors. The visit to the mine will take us into the belly of what the Incas called SumajOrcko, the “beautiful mountain”, where the miners still work, preserving their ancestral traditions.

But Sucre is also the home of Bolivian chocolate , did you know that? We will then enter one of the main chocolate shops in the city to taste the best chocolate in the country!

Local culture and cable car from La Paz to El Alto!
Check-out and wake up early, today we say goodbye to Sucre and take an internal flight that, in less than an hour, takes us to La Paz . We will immediately begin to get lost in the colorful streets of the center, crossing the folkloristic Mercado de las Brujas , or the witches' market, browsing among the various objects and natural elixirs for sale. Right here, we will come into contact with the Aymara civilization and culture and its ancestral traditions. We will continue our tour passing by Plaza Mayor de San Francisco, a meeting point for the inhabitants on weekends, and Plaza Murillo, the center of political power in Bolivia.
In the late afternoon, we will board the cable car that connects the lower city with El Alto . It is through the largest urban cable car network in the world that we will be able to understand the grandeur of this city and its particular geographical conformation. We could then taste some local Bolivian specialties, such as salteña , and enjoy the sunset from one of the many miradors. The evening is still long, how about having a little fun together?

Adrenaline on the Death Road or trekking to the Valle de las Animas?
Yes, there are many things to do around La Paz. The most famous is definitely the Ruta de la Muerte , a route that until a few years ago was considered one of the most dangerous in the world. Today it is a destination for mountain bike enthusiasts. The excursion is optional and starts from La Cumbre, at 4,650 meters above sea level, where you put on protective equipment and are explained the safety rules. It ends in Yolosa, at just 1,200 meters above sea level, where we will have lunch. Yes, you read correctly, we will travel 3,500 meters of altitude difference!
For something more peaceful, instead, we could opt for the Valle de la Luna and the Valle de las Animas , two valleys with curious rock formations, reachable with a simple trek, and the Palca Canyon , with gorges up to 200 meters high due to the thaw and the wind, which extend for the 8 km of the valley. In this case, after lunch we will return to La Paz, for a bit of relaxation, a few last strolls in the center to buy some souvenirs and prepare for the last dinner together! Our trip cannot end with dinner: let's look for a place to have a drink and share the most beautiful and funniest anecdotes and memories!

FAQs – Frequently Asked Questions
Is the flight included?
Round-trip flights are not included in any of our trips because we like to give you autonomy and flexibility: you can choose the airline you want to fly with, the departure airport that suits you best, and how many and which stops you want to make.
Since flights are not included, you also have more flexibility with your travel dates: if possible, you can arrive at your destination a few days earlier or return home a bit later – or even continue independently to a nearby destination!
What is the Money Pot and how does it work?
This is the question of all questions, and here’s the answer, broken down into points!
The Money Pot is a common fund collected in local currency from all tour participants and managed by your Travel Coordinator.
It is used to streamline paymentsfor extra activities, goods and services that the whole group decides to do and to guarantee flexibility in choosing activities and excursions at the destination in line with the mood of the group.
It is typically collected on the first day of the trip in local currency, although at times, the Travel Coordinator may ask for it to be paid before departure.
You’ll find the amount of the money pot on the website under the section ‘What’s included in the money pot’ – how do you get there? Look for ‘What’s included’, scroll down to ‘Money pot? Click here’, and you’ll find the details.
The amount varies depending on the destination chosen.
It is used exclusively for group expenses that ALL participants decide to take part in.
It is estimated based on the experiences of other groups but can vary depending on the needs of the group itself. As such, the Travel Coordinator may need to increase the amount during the trip.
If not all of the money pot is used, the difference will be returned to all participants at the end of the trip in equal amounts.
The Money Pot also covers the Travel Coordinator’s share of the activities included in the money pot, except for those activities that are free for the Travel Coordinator.
If you pay in advance part of the money pot before the trip for certain non-refundable optional activities, unfortunately, the amount cannot be refunded in case of trip cancellation.
Which are the accepted payment methods?
We offer several payment methods to fit every need:
1. Credit or prepaid card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express);
2. Instalment payment with Scalapay up to €4,999 (only available with the “Full trip payment” option – not available with the “Deposit and balance” option; pay in 3 instalments up to €1,200 or in 4 instalments over €1,200);
3. PayPal (for selected destinations);
4. Revolut Pay to pay even faster straight from your Revolut account;
5. Welfare credit – BEFORE BOOKING, reach out to us at [email protected].
If you choose the deposit and balance option, you’ll also be able to pay the balance via bank transfer from your Personal Area.
Can I cancel or modify my booking?
Anyone who books a WeRoad trip has the option to cancel or modify the trip – including both the dates and the destination – free of charge up to 31 days before departure. In case of cancellation, you will receive a 100% refund of the WeRoad trip price. (Deposits will be refunded in the form of a gift card valid for 365 days from issue date.) If you make a change, a price adjustment will be applied to the new trip chosen – meaning, if the new trip is cheaper, we will refund the difference; if it’s more expensive, you will need to pay the difference.
If you’ve purchased the Flexible Cancellation Option (which you can add in the first step of the booking process), you can request a cancellation or trip change until 8 days before departure. In case of cancellation, you’ll receive a 100% refund of the WeRoad trip price, minus the cost of the Flexible Cancellation option. Deposits will be refunded in the form of a gift card valid for 365 days from issue date.
You can do it directly from your personal MyWeRoad account!
Within your booking you will find the "Change Your Trip" section at the bottom right, just underneath your booking details. You will be able to select a different date for the same trip, or a different trip entirely. Whether you are able to change the trip depends on the cancellation terms of your booking. For your original booking if you selected the Private Room, Flexible Cancellation or entered any discount code, gift card or voucher, before confirming the change we will let you know if anything isn't applicable to the new trip and you can decide whether to proceed or not. If you have any issues please do get in touch with the WeRoad team and we'll be able to help.
It's not possible to move to a 'sold out' trip and with any trips that are 'on request' we will need to check availability with our local partners so please do get in touch if you want to move to an 'on request' trip. Please bear in mind that if the trip has the 'final spots' status, there may be no places left in either the male or female room.
How to request a cancellation or change to your trip? Send us an email at [email protected] or a WhatsApp on +447716573700. Please share the booking reference for the trip you want to cancel or change, and, in case of a change, the new trip you would like to join.
What type of accommodation should I expect on your trips?
In general, we always choose local accommodations, avoiding large hotel chains, because we love to experience the culture of the place and, whenever possible, contribute to the local economy. Typically, our accommodations are hotels, apartments, guesthouses, and hostels run by local entrepreneurs, with the same standard maintained across all trips in the same destination.
For our Collection trips, which are our premium category, the accommodations are always 4 or 5-star or carefully selected boutique hotels.
The list of accommodations for your trip will be shared with you by your Travel Coordinator between 5 and 3 days before departure, along with other useful details for your adventure!
Why do we have the Money Pot on all WeRoad trips?
If you're wondering why WeRoad trips have a money pot, we’re assuming you already know what it is. If not, or if you have any doubts, we invite you to read all the information here!
Let’s quickly recap: The Money Pot is a common fund collected in local currency from all tour participants and managed by your Travel Coordinator. It’s used to speed up payments for extra activities, goods and services that the whole group decides to do and to guarantee flexibility in choosing activities and excursions at the destination in line with the mood of the group.
But let’s get to the point: why the money pot? First of all: it gives us a lot of flexibility. In all WeRoad trips you will have a bunch of Must See/Must Do activities already included - these are experiences, places or activities that simply cannot be missed! Any extra activities is decided by the group, why? Because each group is unique and may have particular wants or desires and the Money Pot allows each group to customise their trip to make it perfect for their requirements!
It also helps us speed up payments – imagine being in the subway in New York City, one by one purchasing the ticket...a nightmare right? Thanks to the Money Pot, the Travel Coordinator can simply purchase the tickets for everyone making the entire processes smoother! Any leftover money will be returned at the end of the trip and split equally amongst all participants.
In some destinations, buying goods or services on site is more economical as you are able to negotiate the price - places like Morocco, or South East Asia, bargaining is part of the culture. As such, our Travel Coordinators will be able to secure the best deal for all participants.
The amount of the money pot is specified in each trip – look for this button
which will take you to a detailed breakdown for each trip, like this:
Can I find out my travel groups' flights?
Even if we don't know the flights of all WeRoaders, there are several ways to find out which flights your travel companions have purchased.
1. Each WeRoader has the ability to communicate their flight details after booking within their personal area so that other travel companions can see the details anonymously. Enter your booking and you will find this section:
[Screenshot]
2. If you want to find out before booking, instead, you can contact us and we will support you in your search or you can ask your travel companions for direct information by joining our Facebook group 'WeRoad... let's get to know each other before leaving! (official)' – (here is the extended link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/weroadit) look for a post associated with your trip, or ask the group administrators for help in getting in touch with your future adventure companions!
If the coordinator has already been assigned to the trip you are interested in, you can easily find his/her presentation post in the group through the site: in the shift list click on 'Ask the coordinator', or in the trip tab, in the coordinator section, click on 'Ask [coordinator name] about this shift in our Facebook group'. For both cases, see the screenshots below!
[screenshot]
What's the average size and age of a WeRoad group?
In all our groups, the Travel Coordinator and participants speak English – knowing how to speak and understand English is therefore a fundamental requirement to participate in our trips.
On average the groups are made up of 6-15 people, with a minimum of 3/4 participants and a maximum of 15.
All our travellers are in theirs 20s, 30s and 40s. If you're very curious to know the age range of the group for a tour you're interested in, you can see this by finding the trip on our website, and clicking the down arrow to see the ages & genders of participants. You'll need to have created a WeRoad account with us to do this.
Any issues finding this info just give our team in the office a call, we're always happy to help!
Regarding the male-female ratio, this is not guaranteed and varies trip by trip.
Can I see who’s in the group before I book the trip?
Yes! If you're curious, you can take a sneak peek at the group before booking – although, in our opinion, that kind of spoils the surprise! You’ll find the info in the ‘Group’ section for each trip on the departures page, showing how many WeRoaders have already booked. Click the little arrow and you’ll even see their gender and ages – but hey, that’s exclusive info, so we’ll ask you to log in or sign up to see that!
Will I share the room?
Yes, in all our trips you will share a room with other same-sex travellers, and the bathroom will either be private or shared only with fellow participants of the trip. The rooms we select can be doubles, triples, quadruples, or multi-bed (up to 8 people in exceptional cases), depending on the destination and availability.
There are never dorms with people outside the WeRoad group, except in certain cases for local experiences, which are specifically mentioned in the itinerary or communicated before booking. These typically involve specific nights in unique accommodations like tents, homestays, or camping, offering a more adventurous travel experience in exchange for some comfort.
During the booking process, you can also choose to opt for a mixed room: in this case, if needed, only those who have agreed to this option may share a room with travellers of a different sex. If you are booking for multiple people together and select this option, the room will not be exclusive to your group but may be shared with other travellers in the group.
Who is and what does the Travel Coordinator do?
The WeRoad Travel Coordinator is an experienced and skilled traveller and will be the perfect companion for your trip. They will be available for any eventuality and will manage all the logistical aspects of the itinerary (transports, timings, accommodations, meeting points, etc.), so you can enjoy the trip without any worries!
You will have the chance to get to know them when the WhatsApp group is created approximately 2 weeks before departure - this will be the moment to ask any pre-departure questions and get to know the rest of the group! If the trip you are interested in already has a Travel Coordinator assigned, you can contact them before booking – their details will be specified in the schedule or on the trip page, or you can search for their name here. After booking, you will find their contact details in your Personal Area, under ‘Bookings and Trips’ > ‘Your Upcoming Trips’ > ‘Trip Details’.
How can I be part of the community?
When you set off on a WeRoad trip, you’re officially a WeRoader – and as we often say, 'Once a WeRoader, always a WeRoader'. This means that once you’re part of the community, a little piece of WeRoad will always stay with you, even if you no longer travel with us.
But you’re not just a WeRoader during your trips, far from it! The community is alive and active all year round: you can stay in touch by following and interacting on our social media channels, like the Facebook group or the Instagram profile. We can also meet up for a dinner or a trek together at one of the events organised by our coordinators around the world!
