A must do cultural tour of La Paz - A most enjoyable, interesting and informative walk around the artistic area of La Paz. We saw the most wonderful examples of street art that would be difficult to find without a guide. The cable car ride offered impressive views of La Paz and El Alto. Kevin also showed us some hidden parts of the city, like parks and breathtaking viewpoints as well as the city cemetery. Kevin is a very knowledgeable guide and told us lots about the history and culture of La Paz and Bolivia whilst also patiently giving us plentiful time to explore each location and take pictures and answering all our questions. We had a great day with Kevin!

Excellent insider’s perspective on La Paz - Superb way to get an understanding of the art, culture, and politics of La Paz and Bolivia at large. Kevin is a very knowledgeable guide who is passionate about what he does, and this comes across large when he narrates the story of his people. Couldn’t have picked a better way to start my travels in Bolivia.
