Description
Explore & have an authentic adventure inside La Paz's most important areas, learn about our customs, quality of life and enjoy visiting this full of life and beautiful chaos with a local that's IN LOVE with her city. You won't want to leave!
Our adventure will begin @ Plaza España in Sopocachi neighbourhood (our bohemian quarter), where we'll start in one of the coolest viewpoints in town, that's also full of history & fun facts. If you're new in town, you'll get some sense of orientation after all the info has been provided and then we'll walk to the nearest cable car station.
We'll go across the city on this amazing and very efficient transportation method (we'll see some of El Alto as well!), enjoying more info about the city + time for photos + the greatest views.
Important: you will need 9BOB in small change for the whole ride.
Very Important: On Thursdays & Sundays, we'll walk shortly around the famous flea market in El Alto as well, so our tour will last 10 more minutes approx.
After our ride, we'll walk around the historical center learning more about architecture, late history and politics. For you to enjoy the city, you need to understand it like one of us, right?
We'll finally end up our adventure walking around the touristic area, where besides finding cool souvenir shops, you'll get to understand about the andean religion and learn how us, the paceños, honor our traditions and keep our culture alive.
