Incredible experience, we were able to explore the city and its main sights by receiving super detailed information from our wonderful guide Abraham.
The excellent Guide Teresa accompanied us on a very interesting tour of the city for more than 3 hours showing us the most interesting areas from a historical point of view and the most curious ones related to city life. We were very satisfied.
This was the first tour that we did after arriving in La Paz. Israel was very kind and engaging, and was knowledgeable about his city and country. He was resourceful with getting our group (4 adults plus him) to the various sights, and exceeded the time allotted to accommodate our slower pace due to the altitude. He was great, and I highly recommend this tour as an introduction to La Paz!
