We learned so much about Bolivia, past and present, on this tour. We also discovered many areas that we plan to revisit during our stay. Our guide was incredible and answered all of our questions. This tour was a great introduction to this amazing city.

We had a brilliant morning. Daniel (our tour guide), was engaging, informative and helpful and we came away wishing the tour was longer. Don’t hesitate to book - we went at 10am which was a good time of day to catch the bustle but not the afternoon sun’s glare.

Denise was a great guide! She gave the tour in very good English and it was very entertaining. Born and raised in La Paz, she knows her way around. She was also great at answering questions from the group. I would recommend the tour to anyone spending some time in La Paz.
