¡Bienvenidos a La Paz! My Name is Marcelo, but friends call me Chelo. I am a Native of La Paz City, and I have been working with tourists since sixteen. For a long time, I've dedicated myself to working in tourism, starting at the early age of sixteen, as a counter, guide, waiter, and tour leader across SA. I also worked in many other areas in the industry. All of this has helped me gain all the necessary experience and knowledge to offer the best experiences for travelers that want to visit La Paz and Bolivia. I am really passionate about what I do, I Love it! I am an honest person with a good sense of humor, easy talk, and chill. I'm a lover of my culture, a proud Bolivian that wants to show La Paz and my country at its highest. I want to show you its traditions, costumes, and local life like no other, so tourists can leave happy and with the best impression that Bolivia has to offer. I am a certified guide by the Gobernacion de La Paz (La Paz Governors' office) I'm not a driver, but I can arrange a vehicle and driver upon request

Overview of your La Paz tour

La Paz is crazy - it's an explosion of culture, bursting with indigenous pride like nowhere else in Latin America! Traditional tourism doesn't do this city justice. Navigating the wonderful madness of La Paz and getting the most out of it is not easy at all. But come with me in this tour and I will share with you an immersive experience, a chance to see our city as we, the locals, do. I'll show the good, the bad, and the beautiful! Of course we'll learn about local food and music, we'll admire the sights, and much more. But not as a spectator, instead as an active participant. I'll tell you the hidden history of each nook and cranny and will show you the hidden gems that other tours won't. You will discover the true version of this awe-inspiring city with me.
