Excellent introduction to La Paz
Excellent introduction to La Paz. Private guide and driver out to the impressive Valley of the Moon, then dropped at one of the modern cable-car stations. This system not only avoids the dense traffic but gives amazing views across the whole city. Ended our full half-day with a wander down through the cobbled streets of the old quarter, taking in the cathedral, main plaza and the weird witches market before getting back to our hotel. Paola was great, and we'd definitely recommend this tour.

Good quality half day private tour of La Paz and El Alto
This was a great half day tour to get to see the key highlights of La Paz in a short amount of time. We were picked up directly at our hotel by our lovely English speaking private guide at around 830am. We were explained the tour and the stops we would make. We were then taken by car to the Valley of the Moon just outside the city. The guide provided explanations and was more than willing to answer questions and take photos for us. Time does not allow to explore the full sight but we had sufficient time to cover what we wanted to. Following the valley of the moon we re boarded the car before being dropped at the cable cars. We then took the key lines of the wonderful cable cars of La Paz with our guide to cover the main neighbourhoods of the city and made a small detour to walk around El Alto’s extensive local market. Finally we spent about 45 minutes walking around La Paz historical colonial city centre and exploring churches, government buildings and streets before ending the tour at Witches Market for some shopping. I recommend this tour to others who want to see La Paz in a short time with a private guide !

Excellent
It was a wonderful and very fulfilling tour. The cable car ride was especially impressive. La Paz is connected by cable cars almost like a metro system, and seeing the entire city from above was an amazing experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and had an excellent understanding of the city and every place we visited. The explanations throughout the tour were very informative and made the experience even more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting La Paz.

Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for La Paz.
How much does Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley cost?
+
Prices start at $43 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in La Paz usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in La Paz is not rushed.
Is Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 88 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 413 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in La Paz, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley?
+
Around 145 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in La Paz can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in La Paz and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central La Paz within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in La Paz?
+
On Outty we rank every La Paz experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The World's Most Dangerous Road - Barracuda Biking's Death Road Riding, Death Road Biking Tour, Death Road, Bolivia: Mountain Bike Tour on the World's Most Dangerous Road. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit La Paz?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in La Paz?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley?
+
Included: Cable Car tickets and transportation. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 96 listed pickup locations in and around La Paz. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private City tour, Cable Car and Moon Valley?
+
