Tour description
In a world full of sheep... be an alpaca 🦙💗 Our mission? To show you La Paz and El Alto beyond the postcard pictures. In just a few hours, we’ll zip across the cable cars and dive deep into the urban heartbeat of these cities—exploring stories that don't make it to travel blogs.
Expect dry humor, a bit of sarcasm, and raw insights. This isn’t a history class; it’s real talk with a twist. If you want to experience Bolivia, not just see it, this is the tour for you.
Ps. Don't forget 6 bs extra for the cable car and your friends :)
