Interesting and Informative - would recommend - We had a great time on the tour with Nelson! We covered a lot of area within the city and learned so much about being a local/the history of the city/various traditions. The group wasn't too big which was nice for asking questions. Would recommend the tour early on as it is a great way to get an understanding of the neighborhoods, food, and culture.

Fun informative tour! - We did a walking tour with Nelson and had a great time. We learned a ton about La Paz’s history and current state, as well as a lot about the culture of Bolivia. Nelson was super friendly and knowledgeable—would recommend!

10/10 - Great tour. Really insightful and entertaining. Guide, Nelson, was brilliant. Booked through altitude and they said it started at 2pm when in fact it started at 3 - just an FYI.

Great funny tour with lots of unique perspectives! - We had the walking tour with Bernie, he was a great guide and gave us really good insight how La Paz is for locals and some off the beat information! Highly recommend. Our tour was more like 3,5 hours and not 3 but never boring :)

Informative and interesting walking tour - Highly recommend this walking tour! Our guide Nelson was extremely informative telling us about this history of La Paz, the rituals and practices that come from the witches markets and a lot of information about San Pedro Prison. He answered all of our questions and helped us plan what to do for the rest of our time in La Paz. Highly recommend Nelson!
