Cochabamba Travel Guide

Bolivia

Cochabamba is a large inland city in central Bolivia, with a population of around 1.4 million. It sits in a highland valley and serves as one of the country’s main urban centres.

Most visitors arrive by air at Jorge Wilstermann International Airport (CBB), the airport serving the city. Cochabamba is not a coastal destination, and there are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so beach trips are not part of a stay here.
