I’m already planning to use this company again next year when we visit. - Our guide Jonathon and our driver Ricardo were both incredible. We were very lucky to have such a small group. Our guide spoke perfect English and was incredibly knowledgable.

Wonderful Way to Explore and Learn about LaPaz! - What a lovely day and way to explore LaPaz and its downtown and beautiful beaches! Jonathan is wonderful -- he's a well-informed and personable guide who added lots of relevant detail to the tour. Raul is a great driver! We had an amazing day exploring and learning about LaPaz and the original inhabitants and culture. Balandra Beach did not disappoint! Gorgeous space for all senses! The day finished up with a delicious meal of shrimp tacos at an Oceanside restaurant.

The perfect tour! - The guide shared the history of the city and state. The museum was really cool as well as the downtown tour. The cherry on top was Playa Balandra. As for the lunch meal... It was one of the best shrimp tacos I've ever eaten.

Nice and Enriching Tour - We had a very nice day, we learned very interesting historical data of the city, unfortunately we did not reach place to enter Balandra, but they took us to Tecolote beach and the truth is a very nice beach with crystal clear water, fine sand, practice me is a giant pool super quiet, thanks to Jonathan our guide who has a wide knowledge of the history and marine life of the place made us a very enriching tour, thanks also to Misael our driver, they treated us super well they carried an icebox to keep our drinks fresh, they carried some umbrellas and chairs so we did not have to worry about anything when arriving at the beach. The food was also very rich and hearty!. Thank you so much!!!

All right! - From the first phone contact to our return, our driver Raul was very friendly and respectful. To highlight: Balandra! Beautiful beach and super quiet. Tecolote is also very pretty and very enjoyed. The simple restaurant but the dishes we chose we liked! No complaints.
About the City Tour, Raúl explained very well as we passed iconic places, however, for parking reasons, there is no "official" stop on seawall, only in the souvenir shop. At the craftsman's house, there is no stop if you go in the morning since it opens until 10 so you just stop by. The museum is very interesting, that one if you go in. And to the Cathedral a short stop.
Overall we liked it as the attention was 10, but definitely to the places of the city you could go without guide, no problem. To access the beaches in comfort and without problem, if we recommend it 100%.

No Balandra beach! Big disappointment - Huge disappointment. They don’t understand that the main reason why people book this tour is to go to Balandra beach.
Poorly planned so by the time we go to Balandra beach, it was too late and we couldn’t go in. They skipped another one of the attractions listed in the tour description but the big disappointment was definitely the fact that they got to Balandra too late and we couldn’t get in.

Poorly planned, no Balandra beach! - They don’t plan the tour well so by the time we got to Balandra beach, it was too late. We couldn’t go in. I guess they don’t understand that the main reason why people would book the tour is to go to the Balandra beach. They skipped two of the attractions listed in the tour description and we only saw the malecon from the van, no opportunity for pictures there. Big disappointment.
