Experience Details

If you don’t want to fall into the typical tourist traps in La Paz, join me! We'll start with a three-course menu in the best restaurant in town to meet each other. From there, we'll head up to El Alto to experience the cable car system and take in panoramic views of the city, followed by exploring the historic downtown area, visiting landmarks such as the witches market, Jaén street and main square.. We'll also explore, and stroll through the picturesque colonial and republican architecture. Throughout the tour, I'll share stories and insights into La Paz's rich history and culture, and you'll have the opportunity to sample some of the city's high altitude coffee in my favorite coffee shop. By the end of the tour, you'll have gained a deeper understanding of La Paz and its people, and have experienced some of the city's most iconic sights and sounds with a breathtaking view of Illimani, our mountain protector. Join me for an unforgettable journey in my city.
