Additional Information
La Paz is a city unlike any other on earth. Its staggering height (3,600m/11,800ft) is only surpassed by its incredible beauty. Sprawling over a gorgeous valley and surrounded by massive mountains, one’s first sight of La Paz is unforgettable, but its lasting mark on those who visit, is the life it holds within the valley walls. Our city tour will bring this complex, busy, and incredibly interesting city to life! The people, history, and customs that make up La Paz are truly fascinating and give an insight into the life that makes up one of the world’s most vibrant cities. A visit to La Paz is hardly complete without walking her narrow alleys, meeting her people, and getting to know the past that makes her what she now is.

Amazing way to learn more about La Paz - I did the walkin tour through the city and the tourguide was amazing. He told the group a lot about different aspects of the city, was friendly and answered all the questions and also had good humor in between.

Great tour to know more about La Paz - Great tour where you get to learn more about La Paz and its people. The most interesting part for us was the prison and main square.
The tour guide was fantastic!! Max knows how to keep the audience engaged and he is very knowledgeable about Bolivia/La Paz. Totally recommended.

One of the best - All the reviews say “best free walking tour we have ever done.” I was skeptical.. but honestly, having done probably 20+ this past year of continuous travel, this one might be the very best. Max was our guide and he taught us a ton about La Paz and Bolivia. All too often walking tours just show you a few buildings or places and give you a few random facts. Not this tour. The entire 3 hours was a continuous learning opportunity. Would recommend 100%.

Back to back walking tours with Denise. Highly recommended! - Denise is a rockstar guide and did a great job with the morning walking tour. She taught a lot about the local culture and customs with great humor. It was so much fun that I ended up joining the extended tour in the afternoon. Definitely a great time and would recommend to anyone who is visiting La Paz!

Wonderful Introduction to the Heart of La Paz - This was a fantastic introduction to the heart of La Paz. It was wonderful getting a view of some of the major sites, along with some history to go along with the visuals. Rem was an excellent guide. I liked the tour so much, that I immediately booked another of the tours offered by Red Cap!

A great tour to get your bearings! - Max was an excellent guide! He explained all of the stops in great detail, and made it fun at the same time! His connection and love for Bolivia is apparent, and it made the tour much better. I recommend this tour to anybody who wants to see some main attractions in La Paz with in depth explanations about all of them!

Good walking tour - Great for meeting people, and the guide was very informative. It was advertised as 2-2.5 hours and was actually just under. Offered as bilingual, but as there were more english speakers I believe the guide offered the information in spanish as they moved between locations
