Santa Cruz de la Sierra tours and activities: Best things to do

Santa Cruz de la Sierra is a vibrant city in eastern Bolivia, known for its tropical climate, friendly people, and dynamic energy. As the country’s economic hub, it offers a unique blend of modern life and rich cultural traditions. From lively markets to lush parks and vibrant nightlife, it’s a city full of surprises waiting to be explored.

A brief look at the past

Founded in 1561, the city started as a small colonial settlement, but over the centuries, it grew rapidly thanks to its location and agricultural wealth. Today, it stands as Bolivia’s most populous and cosmopolitan city, reflecting a mix of indigenous, Spanish, and immigrant influences in its daily life.

When to visit for the best experience

Santa Cruz enjoys warm temperatures year-round, but the best time to visit is from May to September, when the weather is drier and cooler. Humidity and rain are more common between December and March, but the city remains lively in any season.

How do I get around the city?

Getting around is easy with taxis, shared minibuses called “micros,” and public buses connecting all the main districts. Walking is pleasant in central areas, especially around the main plaza and historic center.
