I recently paid a short visit to this town. Your images capture the essence and atmosphere so well. I loved it, and my grandchildren loved playing in the waterfall! Thankyou for sharing these pictures.

Thank you, your photos are lovely. My son is on his way now and I wanted to see what Samaipata looked like and luckily I found your photos. Wish I was there too!

Recently visited Samaipata with my daughter who lives in Bolivia. We enjoyed a wonderful evening of singing in the plaza...thinking of it fondly and googled. I discovered your site and so appreciated seeing your photos. They brought back wonderful memories. Thank you. Meredith (Australia)

Amanda		02-Feb-2009 16:31
Youre a great fotografer..I really love you pictures! And im actually on my way to there next week! Keep up the good work!

Patty Myers		04-Dec-2008 12:51
Excellent pictoral of my current home. The beauty and tranquility are projected so perfectly of the village and surrounding areas. It truly is as beautiful as your pictures indicate. I really like the photo of my friend at the nursery. The journey up or down the mountain to Samaipata is worth the trip alone. The scenery offers something new each time I travel to and from Santa Cruz. Your gallery is excellent

LORENA		02-Sep-2008 03:42

Great photos! Reminds me of the Sacred Valley in Peru. My daughter, Shanna, is headed to Ginger Paradise as we speak...Sha

Nate Garnett		06-Mar-2008 22:11
Beautiful pictures! I spent some time in Santa Cruz a few years ago, we went to Samaipata for long weekends. This really brought it all back!

Kathleen		08-Feb-2008 21:59
Thank you for the photos. I am looking for an organic farm near Samaipata, called Ginger's Paradise -have you heard of it?

Paul Butler		10-Jan-2008 04:37

Stunning photos of a stunning place, and also a stunning hug to Pieter and Marga from "La Vispera". We stayed there twice in our visits to Samaipata, and we NEVER could think of anywhere else for a lodge...

Steve		21-Jul-2007 20:35
Your photos of Samaipata are awesome, and it brings back alot of memories! I sure miss Samaipata, and Bolivia in general!

Sarah		14-Jul-2007 08:24

Pieter de Raad		14-May-2007 14:13
We live in Samaipata on Finca "La Víspera": www.lavispera.org and we really enjoyed the beautiful shots you snapped on our village; an impressive photogallery; the right way to promote this Valley-perl in the Andes. Thanks more than a lot... Pieter & Marga

Garland Ferreira		30-Apr-2007 03:30
thank you. Keep up the good pictures

Lois Wauson		31-Mar-2007 16:20
These pictures are so beautiful. My son lives in Samaipata with his wife and daughter and the pictures tell the story of this beautiful little city.

Guest		21-Feb-2007 13:45
Fantastic images. I visited Las Cuevas in about October 95. Absolutely stunning. There is a "hidden valley" which I took photos of, which is found (as I recall) an hour and a half or so walk upstream from the entrance to Las Cuevas. We camped below this hidden valley, at the confluence of two streams that feed the waterfall nearer to the entrance of Las Cuevas. The valley, which is full of trees, is "hidden" as, whilst visible when climbing the neighbouring slopes, is unsafe to climb into (without equipment), due to the steepness of the terrain. I am trying to find it on Google Earth, without success. Anyone who knows where I am talking about, let me know. Ben

Kim Winter		11-Feb-2007 22:34
These photos make me wonder why I ever came home, after serving in the U.S. Peace Corps in Samaipata from 1992-3. They are GORGEOUS! Thank you!

Crystal		24-Jan-2007 03:58
I was an exchange student to Bolivia in the late 70's. I visited Samaipata twice, once with my classmates and once with the other American exchange students. It is so wonderful to see such great pictures of a place I remember so fondly.

Andy & Mickey Partington		11-Nov-2006 22:47
Stumbled over your photography whilst looking for places to stay in Samaipata. These are awesome images - really amazing. Looking forward to seeing you before too long.

Carlos Camacho		16-Sep-2006 17:45
Fantastic pictures. I would liked to see pictures from Zona Sur Achumani. Keep up the good pictures . I will be taking my own soon. I'm moving back to La Paz after 37 years away. Now I'm going to recover and discover my own country. Thank for your pictures.

That is what I hate about Pbase - so many brilliant pictures of so many nice places on Earth - still drooling. Life is too short to visit them all. Very nice photos.

Stefan		25-Nov-2005 01:27
Aaaaaah!! Third on the lift, if you care. I'm still dazed by this great discovery.

Stefan		25-Nov-2005 01:21
Sorry, the third kid on the right.

Stefan		25-Nov-2005 01:19
Thanks so much for the photo of the kids in Samaipata (and the other great photos as well). Pure coincidence, that I saw this, but the second kid on the left is the daughter of a close friend. You really brightened up my day. A forever grateful Stefan. :)
