Recorrido en Tiwanaku Ruinas Arqueológicas

Unfortunately, there were roadblocks to Tiwanaku but the provider allowed me to switch to a Charquini hike on the morning. Very happy they could accommodate me on a different trip. Hike was challenging but worth it for the views. Great tour.

The guide was wildly hectic Talked crazy fast so you couldn't get it all with. He rushed at us all the time. Come, come, so everything was almost running.

Such a great experience. The guide was absolutely wonderful and knowledgeable and we had delicious traditional Bolivian lunch provided at the end of the tour, before heading back to La Paz. The pick up and drop off was seamless as they have it described in their itinerary, and the driver of the mini van made the trip seamless. I booked it last minute and would highly recommend this tour and tour company. Tiwanaku is a place that is absolutely worth visiting, for history, archeology, and mystery.

Well organized, interesting and informative trip to remnants of amazing pre-Incan culture. Theodoro was our enthusiastic, English and Spanish speaking guide with to much detail. Would suggest to spend less time in the museum and more in the ruins. Lunch was excellent, above expectations but very late after 2 pm. Bring snacks!

Very enjoyable. Guide was good, as was lunch (though note, the cost of lunch isn't included)

Well organized tour to Tiwanaku and Puma Punku. Our guide Juan gave good explanations about the two museums and the various facilities. He also made transparent what consolidated knowledge is and what only guesses. Lunch was excellent. Only the bus for the trip should have more space for the legs.

So, everything logistical about this tour was ok. We were picked up at the hotel on time, we got to the ruins, all entry sorted, and got back to La Paz in good time. However, our guide on this tour was a total clown. These are some of the things he tried to convince us of: 1) The Altiplano was around sea level 2000 years ago and covered in rainforest. (This would explain how the Tiwanakus knew about capybaras apparently.) 2) The Tiwanakus were in contact with the ancient Egyptians and traded hieroglyphs. 3) One upon a time there existed blue-skinned humans who have now intermixed with others so the skin tone has assimilated. The source for this was depictions of blue-skinned Shiva in India. He spent the entire time feeding us new age nonsense about shifting magnetic energies, telepathy, and similar. Obviously we could not trust anything he said even if it was not obviously false. We were jealous of the other groups we passed that seemed to get actual information from their guides. Advise to book somewhere else.

Interesting site in development. You really need a guide to understand it. Our guide was very exhaustive and efficient.

We booked the day before at a much more convenient price than with other agencies. Manuel passed us looking very close to our accommodation in a very comfortable vehicle. The trip was fast and when we arrived the guide took us on a tour of the museums and ruins of Tiwanaku. Then we went to lunch and asked Manuel if we could stay a couple more hours to do the tour calmly. He just had to take some passengers to Desaguadero and offered to pick us up on his way back, so everything squared up perfect. I highlight the timeliness, friendliness, willingness and excellent value for money. Without a doubt, if I have to rebook a tour in La Paz it will be with Owl.

The transportation broke down so we lost over an hour waiting for a new van. Once we arrived we were rushed through the museums without any time to explore on our own. Then the main tour of Tiwanaku was very quick due to the fact we had to make lunch. Again we only had 10 mins to explore the ruins the same with Puma Punku. As most tourists only do this once all we had was a few minutes to take photos. Very disappointing
