Private Tour
La Paz: A Political & Anthropological Experience
Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
Gain a true understanding of Bolivia by exploring its unique political identity and rich social fabric, essential to grasping the reality of any place. Bolivia has consistently chosen its own path in Latin America: from nationalizing gas and lithium, to rewriting its Constitution with indigenous values at the center, to being the only country where McDonald’s went bankrupt.
Guided by a native English speaking Bolivian expert, this experience offers a clear, engaging, and balanced look into Bolivia’s complex history, indigenous resurgence, and political evolution, past and present. The narrative remains thoughtful and nuanced, inviting you to form your own perspective rather than receiving one.
And you won’t just hear about it, you’ll see it. The journey unfolds along a carefully designed route, including La Paz’s stunning cable car system, turning the city into storytelling in motion for curious minds who want depth, context, and connection, not just a tour.

5.00Edson is knowledgeable. We learned a lot about Bolivia and La Paz’s history through important landmarks and the stories behind them. That helped us better understand the current protests as well. Really fascinating! Edson also showed us really good local food options. We only found out later he has a food tour, which we would have definitely signed up for!

5.00You get to see La Paz’s major cemetery (Cementario General) - it is so big, it has street signs. You also get to go to Mirador Killi Killi. Plus you get an aerial tour of the city and its neighborhoods, and you finish off going through the Witches Market. Highly recommended. Please note, the aerial tramway is a working people’s mode of transportation.
Great view of La Paz and El Alto
