Local knowledge for Rurrenabaque

Where to stay

Almost everything budget travelers need sits within a few blocks of the main plaza, with hostels concentrated along Calle Comercio and the streets just off it. Staying near the waterfront on the Beni River puts you close to where pampas and jungle tour boats depart each morning.

Getting around

  • Bring enough bolivianos to last your whole stay. The town has ATMs but they run out of cash regularly and there is no guarantee of a refill the same day.
  • Small prop planes fly from La Paz in about 45 minutes, though schedules and operators change often, so confirm the flight before counting on one. The overland alternative is an 18-plus-hour bus ride on a rough road, so weigh the cost difference against a full lost travel day.
  • Tour operators on Calle Comercio are clustered close together, so walk a few before committing. Prices and what is included in pampas versus Madidi jungle packages vary more than you would expect for such a small town.

When to go

Hostels are cheapest and easiest to book during the wet season (December through March), while June through September fills beds fast as dry conditions make pampas wildlife tours far more productive.
