    San Ignacio is known for its native costumes and Jesuit mission.

    You can come by a shared taxi (leave when full) from Trinidad or San Borja (or Rurrenabaque). From San Borja it takes 3.5 hr and costs Bs. 70, the road is a mix of gravel and dirt.

    The bus terminal is east of the town (Trinidad side), but it's not a long walk to the main plaza.

    On foot or by mototaxi.

    • Alojamiento (near service area, where shared taxis from San Borja stop; some 3 blocks from the center). Very basic, little cleanness, a bit broken. May be cold and noisy to sleep. Bs. 50 a night for a bed in triple room.

    Several accommodation options exist in this area, just ask around, starting from Bs. 35.

    Go next

    [edit]
    • Trinidad – A pleasant town, which has a couple of attractions itself, and can serve as a gateway to more places in Beni. More - you can take a multi-day boat ride via Mamore river starting from near Trinidad and up to Guayaramerín at the border with Brazil.
    • Rurrenabaque – A laid-back town offering superb jungle (e.g. Serere reserve, Madidi National Park) and pampas tours.
