EXPERIENCE

The World’s Highest Capital

Few cities in the world have as spectacular a setting as La Paz. The cosmopolitan city is one of contrasts – the modern metropolitan city meeting its colonial architecture and hundred-year-old markets, and how its European influences contrast with its mostly indigenous inhabitants.

At over 3500m above sea level, La Paz is the highest capital city in the world and allows for some incredible Andean views. Imagine a city tucked away in narrow canyons, with churches and offices dwarfed by the magnificent icebound peak of Mount Illimani rising imperiously to the southeast. Explore all of this and more with our luxury Bolivia tours.

Experience La Paz

La Paz Gastronomy Experience
GASTRONOMY

With some of the continent’s most notable restaurants, La Paz’s foodie scene is on the rise - the city also has an increasingly cosmopolitan range of European-style restaurants, both in Sopocachi, and also on trendy Calle Tarija, just off the end of Linares. In stark contrast to neighboring Argentina, restaurants begin serving dinner at around 7 pm. Like most things in La Paz, the city is the perfect place to experience both Indigenous and European culture, with many restaurants catering to both or using indigenous ingredients and cooking styles with European presentations and twists.  

La Paz Culture Experience
CULTURE

Today La Paz is a growing city that is expanding in many directions, and it remains vibrant with a mix of customs from numerous eras. Indigenous culture is still very prevalent in La Paz, unlike many other South American metropolises, and while La Paz has never had an influx of immigrants, it still features unique neighborhoods with plenty of diversity. This makes La Paz a truly vibrant city with a South American flavor all its own. Visitors can enjoy both the old and the new when it comes to culture, visiting one of the city’s many ingenious communities, markets, restaurants, and shops or opting to experience the modern like museums, malls, or nightlife in the city.  

La Paz Adventure Experience
ADVENTURE

With unparalleled access to the Andes Mountains, La Paz is the perfect starting point for so many of Bolivia’s most thrilling adventures. Enjoy mountainous terrains when you go rock climbing at one of the hundreds of outdoor sports and traditional climbing routes right in the heart of downtown. In neighborhoods like Aranjuez on either side of Avenida Hernan Siles Zuazo, there are tons of walking trails with rock climbing routes, as well as easy access to some great mountaineering views. If you’re up for a more challenging hike, climb to the top of Huayna Potosi. At 6,088 meters (20,000 feet), it’s one of the most popular climbs in South America. 

La Paz Nature Experience
NATURE

Surrounded by the Andes Mountains and with 137,000 observations of fauna and flora, La Paz is a capital city with much to experience when it comes to natural beauty. From wandering through the otherworldly craters of the Valley of the Moon to climbing the great peaks of Monte Chacaltaya, La Paz always delivers on altitude and sweeping natural beauty. Hike up to one of the many viewpoints in the city and take La Paz’s snowcapped mountainous terrain and out-of-this-world landscapes.
