One of the best way to see this offbeat and colorful city is in the sky! Join us at 2pm for an adventure that will show you the real La Paz exploring the amazing cable cars, the fascinating cemetery district, local shamans and the pulsating city of El Alto with an amazing guide.
This is one of the most stunning city tours in the world! Not only do you get to take in the magnificent views of La Paz and the surrounding mountains, but you also explore some of the beaten path spots in the city!
Take local transport up to the cemetery where we explore the open air street art museum and learn about the fascinating culture and traditions that can only be found here, then up to El Alto in the world’s most scenic form of transport, the teleferico (cable car). In El Alto we visit a local shaman and have the opportunity to get our fortunes read (if time allows) before exploring the city further and then taking the teleferico back to the city center. Get a chance to see the real La Paz!

4.00Denise was an excellent guide with detailed knowledge of the area and excellent English. The cemetery and visit to El Alto was really interesting, however there was no opportunity for coca leaf reading as per the itinerary. It may be available if a small group of two, but obviously not going to work with any group larger than that.
