Transport in Bolivia is never dull,
Rugged roads, sketchy old vehicles, and passengers packed in skull to skull.
Unpredictable weather, boat crossings, blockades...always delays,
Warm clothes, Cremositos, and sleeping pills...a survival kit always pays.

Santa Cruz to Ambue Ari, waiting 6 hours is a must,
Seems far-fetched, but who can you trust?

Trinidad, Inglesia, San Bora...collectivos galore,
One breakdown, two breakdown, three breakdown, four.
From the park the only ways to hitch,
Hours of waiting, and praying to avoid a ditch.

In Rurre there is only moto taxis you learn,
All good fun, just watch out for an exhaust burn.

The most dangerous road in Bolivia I’m told,
Rurre to La Paz, a 2o hour bus ticket I’m sold.

Narrow dirt roads, steep cliffs, and landslides,
Reminiscent of those rickety old roller coaster rides.

La Paz to Santa Cruz, descending altitude with satisfying ear pops,
The 16 hour journey’s lengthened with multiple police interrogation stops.

Inevitably exhausted; covered in dirt, dust, and grime,
It’s guaranteed each trip is a memorable time!
