Warning
Lonely Planet has received several credible reports of very serious
incidents involving the drugging and rape of women tourists who've
taken guided jungle and pampas tours with independent guides around
Rurrenabaque. Contrary to what it says on pages 432 to 433 of Lonely
Planet's Bolivia guide, women tourists should not in any circumstances
take tours on their own or in pairs with independent guides, but
should stick to larger group tours run by reputable agencies. Avoid
rogue guides or those who have broken away from established agencies,
including any who may be recommended in this book.
