Overview
In a world full of sheep... be an alpaca
This is not a tour to see tourist attractions — it’s a tour to understand real life in La Paz and El Alto
We move through La Paz and El Alto the way locals do, paying attention to small details.
This walk is for people who are curious about how a city functions from the inside — socially, culturally, quietly.
If you enjoy asking “why” more than “where,” this walk might be for you. ✨ What you will see
- Plaza Murillo – to understand how the country works.
- San Pedro Prison (outside) – Not as a story to entertain, but as part of everyday urban reality
- Cable Cars – Used daily by thousands of people. From above, the city looks different
- Life in El Alto – understand the real meaning of "where there is a will, there is a way."
- The Real Witches Market - We approach this space with respect. Beliefs are not explained to be judged or debated, but to be understood as part of how people relate to uncertainty. (no photos here)
IMPORTANT
Please don't forget 6 bs extra for the cable car and your friends :)
We respect our guests, and we ask the same respect for our people, animals, and culture.
