I did Christians Tour with two friends in August and it was fantastic! He is so kind and has a unique sense of humor. I loved it and he was so honest with us about all the situations in bolivia and he answered all of our questions! It was really interesting to see all the different things in this fascinating city. Me, Noah and Konrad enjoyed every minute of our tour and it was one of our highlights from our trip to bolivia. He even organized us a transfer to a small village. Just 10/10, thank you for all, christian and best regards from Germany!!

It was an excellent tour. We were only 3 people and way Cristian did the tour we had gr one good friends. His style of communication with some simple gestures like taking selfies of group was extremely wonderful. I don’t know how the time passed. He is very passionate about his job, his city and country. I will strongly recommend to every who comes to La Paz to take this tour when they arrive as it will help them to plan rest of tour

A great introduction to some areas of the amazing city of La Paz. It was wonderful to see some important sites and hear some information about Bolivian history. I particularly liked visiting the shops and markets and gaining an insight into the lives of people living in La Paz. Christian was a lovely, informative, entertaining guide and it was a real pleasure to go on his walking tour

We had a wonderful 3hr walking tour of La Paz upon our arrival in the city. It was a great way of getting our bearings and Cristian took us on a route we could have never planned on our own. We learnt so much about the history, food, culture as well as the recent political and economic situation in Bolivia. Cristian is so so lovely and made our day as we left feeling very comfortable in La Paz and with a clear plan on what we wanted to do next and also what foods we were going to try !
Thanks so much for a wonderful experience. Regina and Marc x
