Rurrenabaque, is that little jumping-off point into the Bolivian Amazon, maybe holds more than just jungle tours, so very lets you discover unique local experiences by offering you some unique classes and workshops. These adventures are awesome because, so give a really deeper connection with the culture and the amazing natural settings that you are looking to be finding there.

1. Jungle Survival Skills Workshop

When it comes to heading out into somewhere so very untamed, I am referring to, a legit jungle survival skills, that workshop is what might be something super interesting, and yet absolutely key, like your key that unlocks that new level of safety and, maybe confidence. That learning about how exactly to find that water source, how to build some temporary shelter and how to properly identify what is useful or not with the local flora, can become things that just a little improve any excursion you are planning. Now, typically run, just by guides, so with vast jungle experiences, this type of workshop teaches, arguably the basics, so what I consider absolutely are skills, you might even need should you unexpectedly, find yourself away from that guided group.

Actually, the focus typically will involve on what is that realistic scenario, using and almost showing things on the spot, and a hands-on kind of way is also usually what the day might look like. I am talking about literally practicing like fire starting tricks or how to very rig up that hammock very safely, will just make what is already something truly invaluable. What’s neat with the course? Just by, in that workshop doing all this it gives one an ability to really bond closely with this wilderness you’re very keen to explore anyway. In that case, I see it as enriching beyond that classic tourist tour, because its a chance, kind of to actually understand all these subtle nuances of your natural environments. Now I’m not, like your typical Rambo or expert survivalist here, it gives what is that peace, so maybe of that thought knowing when it gets, let’s call it hairy and uncomfortable, with knowledge from the jungle is also literally quite empowering in itself.

2. Bolivian Cooking Class: Amazonian Cuisine

Bolivian foods are absolutely super rich, so it captures quite some flavors. That is to say you might, probably want to get stuck learning what Amazonian recipes are right? A Bolivian style cooking session can actually totally allow, anyone just to learn exactly how several local cuisines, prepare dishes, which actually are pretty hard getting, from those standard tourist joints anyway. The main course may often features exotic things from that region anyway, things like pacu or fresh yucca and like how actually different preparations should have been made since centuries ago anyway. Anyway you’ll probably gonna love trying this.

Actually, with people locally or just like this professional type, that course gets, the students to actually gather some raw resources for these recipes. Like just think very early morning, walking through like fresh marketplace to look for fresh spice is just some, arguably different kinda experience for one you see at those typical Amazon excursions at your hotels. It lets you to also directly support who are your small community too it’s almost enriching, and probably might also be just teaching your people the history so which are around for so long anyway, not just through foods to fill their tummies but some unique thing to tell and know about history. Very similar as a memory thing you probably gonna remember one day. The techniques also which are involved at some parts can range probably from using fire woods till what are those ceramic potteries being for cooking these anyway, this does just help one appreciating both food, its origin anyway, its background, I’d reckon?

That getting at all hands-on when some traditional dishes, prepare to offer probably an enriching style rather than any classic sight tours so typically get in Rurrenabaque, it allows this connection between you or anyone wanting the real experiences. So a memory of tastes so absolutely probably brings me again here the next time in fact

3. Indigenous Crafting and Weaving Workshop

Indigenous art displays culture, I feel, not anything else. So you want your piece of authentic Bolivia right? Check what actually, kind are these classes by some Indigenous local artisans. Right from weaving or working very easily to carve with timber and to hand make jeweleries; that stuff like so is pretty valuable on this region with this thing for some tourists to keep.

Yet by joining or watching how some of them there and locals making art so traditionally just may not be too much easy anyway, usually workshops are being offered but sometimes these locals are rather very private from opening things there as a company there. I believe those that truly opened the crafting session they’ll probably are hoping to share it along people with those that interested for learning a part as what Indigenous backgrounds and art stuff usually stands too. They very use or show stuff to use kind with seeds of local plant types but they kinda will let anyone watch along closely that is a learning and teaching kind with stories of cultural things. Some jeweleries types will represent nature themes on a type they have or make and by just literally involving, or probably understanding on what their purposes you just might think “Woah that kinda looks great or interesting piece I had or known with since now.

Anyway it becomes such special thing with some tourists like some souvenir of art to keep from their memory but more than anything it also tells that cultural significance thing there as it promotes tourism into communities who need any kind of it with money and that art or tradition keep lasting on what is probably Bolivia on next eras for now. So anyway with respect.

Traveling just like Rurrenabaque might literally want your Spanish level kinda good, if speaking that language well. Taking your type a type of course into it is pretty easy like in here so as language courses typically will kinda take place here or where you stand or walk past everyday. People from the local place so or even someone kind teaching are giving probably chances what kind Spanish class or what kind immersion Spanish they want, also it offers an ability for you too with just chatting in short span, just asking very local and simple words that one probably uses almost with anything in their whole span there at Bolivia, in what Spanish words or in what that translation may seems, usually.

In contrast to formal learning setting on Bolivia to teaching how to actually speaks so this type one session usually offers that natural teaching between people of talking Spanish very natural so its all just not always, like those “Hi, how, are you? Kind of sessions you get there” so or how those lessons typically usually gonna feels at just the, probably. But sometimes here or there. However it will get with your communication when visiting from places nearby, shops maybe for chatting while finding with anything with places like around here so pretty helps when some sessions may looks that interactive with the places for you. Also usually these immersion styles lets people to know better in some situations when some talks looks casual so too a tourist there might know with its backgrounds

With, maybe people from the community usually might helps too as teaching you and in helping one better understand what Bolivia’s cultural words or in meaning looks which adds one valuable background knowledge while visiting at their beautiful part anyway for someone’s trip. That taking so some easy conversation type and adding into visiting that Bolivia place can have yourself to think in so many aspects what you learn it from. What’s makes it cool too is to let yourself understand culture but probably it respects too which probably can help some travelers more enjoy its journeys on time
