    Absolutely loved this hike!! Abdón is an incredible guide; he knows the mountains surrounding La Paz like the back of his hand. These mountains are very special and are a great way to escape the city life when in La Paz. Although hiking in the Cordillera Real can be a challenge, you are in good hands with Abdón, as he has many different options for each hike according to your abilities and desires. Everything is taken care of; private transport, food, park passes, etc. Abdón is very knowledgeable about the land surrounding La Paz and has some great recommendations for restaurants in the city. Definitely book this over a group tour for the best personalized experience.

  • Unique, authentic experience visiting a spectacular glacier.

    Had an amazing day with Abdon hiking high in the Cordillera Real. The guy is super knowledgeable, is passionate (and rightly so) about the beauty of the Bolivian Andes, and is so easy to get along with. It is a challenging hike, but If you’re looking for an authentic experience with breathtaking views, this one is for you.

    Spectacular! A must do activity if you visit Bolivia. The hike is challenging but so worth the effort. You will be rewarded with scenery that is out of this world. Thanks so much Abdon for such a wonderful day.

    The views were beautiful, The guide was very attentive and adapted to our pace and what we wanted to see, plus he had brought delicious homemade cake and fruit for our break. On the way back, it brought us to a viewpoint of the magnificent paz. He also took pictures of us and gave them to us! Guide punctual; professional and close to nature and its conservation! Everything was perfect. I recommend!!!

    The experience of Ventanani Glacier with Abdon was impressive and all thanks to him. He passed us looking for super-struts in a new 4x4 vehicle, treated us excellently, had all the patience in the world and had no problem working more hours for us without even asking for anything. A simple and special person who managed to bring us the most beautiful thing from Bolivia with every gesture. He also prepared delicious snacks for a picnic on the shores of the Slovenian Lagoon (dream). Ah the landscapes... From another planet 👌👌

    I’m a female solo traveler and I used Abdon’s services twice during my week in Bolivia. He took me for two different beautiful hikes. He was a great guide, respectful, didn’t make me feel creepy or uncomfortable considering I was a young girl traveling solo. I really appreciate Abdon and loved hiking with him. The views and experience were hands down my favorite part of my trip. I would 100% hire him again for more hiking adventures in Bolivia!

    Took a great trip last week with Abdon to see Condoriri national park. We hiked three cascading lakes to a glacier at just over 5000 meters. Abdon kept things safe, allowed me to set a good pace and brought some yummy snacks. Great way to get off the beaten path! I appreciated his passion to pick up trash and take care of the natural environment.
