5.00Got up early , got picked up on time, went out to the start of the hike, and it all went well, Sergio was a good driver, a good conversation, knowledgeable. The scenery was awesome, it was a sunrise hike, even if you don't see the sun, it's a trip worth taking. A good start to the day. The hike itself was easy to moderate.
Sunrise in the fog, still very much awesome

3.00The guide was basic and spoke more to the driver than to me. Stayed well ahead of me in the hike and several times I had to ask him if I could take a photo without him in the frame.
La Paz a wonderful Surprise

5.00Sergio picked us up from our hotel for a sunrise hike in Valle de las Ánimas. He was extremely knowledgeable and provided fascinating, worldly conversation throughout the tour and some tips to make the most of our last day. After the hike, we enjoyed a delicious traditional Bolivian breakfast. This experience is highly recommended—there’s truly no better way to explore Valle de las Ánimas!
Great tour!

5.00Sergio was amazing! Our tour of Valle de las Ánimas was unforgettable. He was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating details about the area's unique geology and cultural significance. He was also so patient with my family, especially as we took our time climbing the trail. The drivers who picked us up were just as wonderful—kind, generous, and eager to share more about life in Bolivia. The views were absolutely breathtaking—a true hidden gem!
Would not use this company again

1.00I would never book with this company again. The tour was cancelled due to public protests. They knew this would be an issue, that it would be hard to travel, but took the booking anyway. Even after their negligence I only received half refund. Very disappointed.
