All La Paz Tours & Excursions in 2026 - page 8

Our guide Max is from El Alto so he knows about the city first hand. We learned a lot of the city’s history, culture, urban myth even political landscape. It was very informative. He was also very helpful, suggested local restaurants and even provided his contact for follow up questions.

Loved the door to door service of Joker Expedition. From hotel pickup at La Paz, to the bus terminal. The driver stayed with us till we boarded the correct bus. After 8-9 hours of travel overnight, another driver picked us up in Uyuni, drove to the hotel where we had good buffet breakfast. The hotel provided a room where we can rest a little and freshen up. In an hour or so, our tour guide Lily and same driver picked us up from the hotel. Lily is so lovable. She’s kind, happy, and takes the best videos and photos. She brought her small photo props and used them at our pictorials. She made our experience at the salt flats so memorable. I highly recommend her. We also had a good lunch setup at the salt flats. It was so surreal experience having lunch at out of nowhere. At first I was worried because my husband is vegetarian. Our buffet lunch (prepared by Joker Expedition staff) was so good. There was so much variety. After lunch we headed to more areas around the salt flats until it was sunset. We were so lucky that the previous snowfall a week earlier provided a little amount of water on the flat which had provided a good reflection for the photos. The moon shone at the opposite direction the sun was setting. It was absolutely an incredible phenomenon. Our videos taken by Lily were amazing. Due too much water in some areas we were not able to see the cacti in some island. But we were so impressed at the flats already so it didn’t matter. After our experience we drove back to the hotel. Waited a bit till it was near departure time. Our driver, Gabriel, also did a good job keeping us safe throughout the day. Then it was time to depart from Uyuni back to La Paz. Another 8-9 hours of bus travel overnight. Arrived in La Paz early morning and the same driver picked us up from the bus station back to our hotel in La Paz. The sleeper bus ride was a bit challenging but the whole experience was so worth it. Thanks Viator and Joker Expedition for memories we will cherish.

Amazing private tour with Santiago. Santiago was extremely friendly personable and knowledgeable and gave full background on both Valley’s as well as the history of La Paz. The fact it was a private tour meant you could do it at your own pace, and stop and take in the views for longer if you’d like. Would definitely recommend. Especially if you want one tour to showcase La Paz in one go.

If you find a better experience in La Paz, I would like to know. Aracely is the perfect person to introduce you to La Paz and her culture. I am a world traveler. I’ve done lots and lots of tours. This by far was my favorite. There are many things I could say, but I do not want to ruin the surprises. Experience this one for yourself.

I had an excellent walking tour of La Paz with Natalia. She was on time, professional, and extremely knowledgeable about both the history of La Paz and Bolivia as a whole. One thing I especially appreciated was that she didn't just point out landmarks, she explained their historical and cultural significance. She also took the time to show me how to use the Mi Teleférico gondola system, which was very helpful for getting around the city afterward. The pace of the tour was perfect. Even though I was the only participant that day, Natalia never rushed through the sites and was happy to answer questions along the way.

Damian and his partner were easily some of the best guides I've had the pleasure to tour with ever. They made the journey fun and their playlist was fire. My favorite part was that the more extreme riders were able to follow the forward guide at their desired speed and the more careful riders were riding towards the back. This accommodated everyone and their skill level.

Giovana was an exceptional guide. Even before the tour began, she showed a genuine willingness to help by coming directly to our location. The itinerary was well-structured, and we appreciated being able to hike at our own pace. The lake was absolutely worth the effort!

This walking tour was a fantastic way to get to know La Paz. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and shared a lot of interesting context about the city’s history, culture, and daily life. The group size was small, which made it easy to ask questions and stay engaged throughout the tour. The highlight was definitely taking the cable cars up to El Alto — the views over La Paz are incredible and give you a completely different perspective of the city. The visit to El Alto felt authentic and informative, not rushed at all. Overall, it was a well-organized, insightful experience and a great introduction to both La Paz and El Alto. Highly recommended, especially if it’s your first time in the city.
