The company didn’t tell me it would start at 3pm instead of 2pm, however the guide Charlie was great and very knowledgeable on all things political, historical, etc, and made the tour very enjoyable. I was the only person on it so we could chat more in-depth about the culture, history. Just remember to bring some cash for tipping!

This tour was the perfect first day activity in La Paz to get oriented. Sarah was our guide and she spoke English very well (I mention this as she has only been doing the tour a few months and asked us for feedback on her English). She shared good information (right amount and not too much) on the history, culture, and beliefs. As it was our first day in La Paz, we were still adjusting to the altitude and Sarah was very patient and paced the tour at a nice and slow level for us. She took great photos of us at various stops. Would highly recommend booking this tour.

We're delighted to hear that Sarah provided you with a welcoming and informative introduction to La Paz on your first day. It’s great to know she balanced sharing history, culture, and local beliefs perfectly, and paced the tour to suit your needs while adjusting to the altitude.
We’ll be sure to pass on your kind words to Sarah—she’ll really appreciate your encouragement as she continues to improve her English and guide skills.
Thanks for recommending our tour! We hope to welcome you back for more adventures in Bolivia soon.

Charlie was our guide for the walking tour. He was polite, engaging, observant, and above all very knowledgeable. We had a comprehensive overview of La Paz in about 3 hours that left us wanting to learn more. Charlie was passionate about the indigenous culture and traditions and took the time to explain many of the rituals and practices during our walk through the Witches Market.
