Aracely was our guide and she collected us on time from our hotel as promised with her father driving us around for the afternoon. We had a wonderful tour with them. She is a fascinating woman who is a local indigenous Bolivian who explained so much to us about her history, beliefs, culture, background, life etc. this made the whole tour come to life. She is very unusual in proudly dressing ( as a young beautiful modern highly educated woman) in the traditional costume of her ethnic background, not just when leading tours but in her whole life. We visited all the promised places and were very lucky to have sun and bright skies for must of the host despite intermittent downpours which fortunately came when we were driving from place to place. I highly recommend this tour with the lovely and fascinating Aracely!

It was a wonderful experience to visit these memorable sites in La Paz, which was possible thanks to the excellent guide Maria, who spared no effort in making us experience our time in these beautiful corners of La Paz in a meaningful way.
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.
Tour was very good!! Our guide was Aracely, who showed us a little bit of La Paz and its culture with great charm. She did the whole tour in Portuguese, speaking very well!
We made the city tour in La Paz with Aracely and it was a wonderful experience! We were in a group of friends and we loved every moment. In addition to introducing the city in an engaging way, she shared a lot of information about the history of La Paz, the Bolivian culture and the indigenous peoples, making the tour much richer and more interesting. Aracely has brought even more authenticity to the experience, allowing us to get to know the traditions and customs through who really lives this culture. She was very attentive, friendly and answered all our questions with a lot of knowledge. We recommend the tour for those who want to know La Paz beyond the sights and understand the essence of the city and its people. It was undoubtedly one of the highlights of our trip!
It’s a must-do tour for anyone visiting La Paz. We were a group of friends returning from another trip and had just one day in La Paz. Without a doubt, this tour with Aracely was the perfect way to wrap things up—it couldn't have been better. We arrived without high expectations for the city but left feeling like we absolutely had to come back! She is a delightful, kind guide with deep knowledge of her culture. The best cholita!
I had an amazing time exploring La Paz! Visiting Valle de la Luna was an unforgettable experience—the unique rock formations and incredible landscapes made it feel like another planet. Walking through the Witches’ Market was fascinating, with its rich culture, local traditions, and unique handmade crafts. Riding the Teleférico was definitely a highlight, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the city and surrounding mountains while making it easy to get around. Everything was well organized, and the experience gave me a wonderful introduction to the history, culture, and beauty of La Paz. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bolivia. It was the perfect mix of sightseeing, culture, and unforgettable views! Kudos to Rogelio, he was a great guide.
We had Maria as our guide for the day. She was very flexible in what we saw as it was a private tour. We rode the cable cars and went to the Vally of the Moon which was incredible. We then went to Killi Killi viewpoint to see all of La Paz. We took in the cocoa museum and the witches market. Maria was very insightful about the history and culture of the Indigenous people.
Maria was a dynamic guide, who knows the city well. She knows how to put at ease and explain the important elements concerning the different sites!
Very good tour, personalized, the Rosario guide excellent, recommend it
