Very good - Fernando was a great guide who showed us all over the city. We tasted ice cream, had saltenas, and he answered all the questions we had about the city. Thank you for the tour, we definitely know La Paz a bit better!

Fun tour! - A very quick, yet comprehensive, tour of the cities of La Paz and El Alto. Our guide Fer was very knowledgeable about the city, and I learned many new things. I especially liked his detailed explanations at the Witches Market, and of the duality of Christianity and Panchamama. The cable cars were also super great, and fun to see the cities and mountains from a different perspective.

Great views and cultural exploration - This was a very interesting tour. We had a good explanation of the witches market and then did a circuit using the cable car system. We got some good views of the city and a description of all the sites. We then finished the tour in the Spanish quarter for a good mix of sites.
