Sucre: Night Walking Tour in the Old City

Explore Sucre by night with stories, legends, and local drinks like chicha, tumbo, kirusilla, and chuflay. Enjoy hidden bars, and a unique blend of history, culture, and flavor.

Discover the magic of Sucre by night on a walking tour that blends rich history, old legends, political intrigue, and the warm soul of traditional Bolivian drinks.

As twilight falls over Sucre, we’ll wander through its beautifully lit colonial streets, where each building whispers stories from centuries past. This immersive experience takes you beyond tourist landmarks and into the hidden heart of the city—through narrow alleys, historic plazas, and into intimate bars where time seems to stand still.

Throughout the evening, we’ll uncover stories of independence, indigenous traditions, and cultural change—narratives that shaped Bolivia’s unique identity. But this tour isn't just about history; it’s also a journey of the senses.

You’ll taste a variety of authentic Bolivian beverages along the way:

• Chuflay, a refreshing cocktail made with Singani and ginger ale or soda. Singani, Bolivia’s national liquor, is distilled from white Muscat of Alexandria grapes grown at high altitudes (over 1,600 meters). Its floral, smooth, and slightly fruity profile makes it both versatile and distinctive—enjoyed straight or in cocktails.

• Kirusilla, a rare and earthy highland drink named after a native medicinal plant. It’s typically infused with herbs and mixed with cane alcohol or singani. Slightly bitter and sometimes sweetened, it's traditionally consumed warm and is valued not only for its taste but also for its digestive and warming properties during Andean nights.

• Chicha, a fermented corn-based drink with deep indigenous roots. Earthy, slightly sour, and symbolic of communal rituals, it’s often shared during festivals and family gatherings.

• Trago de Tumbo, made from tumbo, a native fruit related to passion fruit. Its tropical, tangy flavor, mixed with singani or cane liquor, makes it a vibrant and aromatic highland favorite.

Some of these drinks are served in bars run by indigenous families who preserve ancestral recipes, turning each sip into a cultural experience.

The walk continues through lesser-known alleys, where myths and oral traditions come to life, linking the past to the present. With engaging storytelling, cozy corners, and meaningful encounters, this tour goes far beyond the typical city stroll.

Ideal for curious travelers, culture lovers, and anyone seeking a vibrant, off-the-beaten-path experience in Sucre. This is not just a tour—it’s a connection to the city’s spirit, shared one story and one drink at a time.
