Great time exploring Bolivia! - Our guide Juan was amazing! He was a great driver and very knowledgeable at the history of the archeological sites. I highly recommend this tour!

The perfect day of archeological sightseeing - I’ve wanted to come to Tiwanaku and Puma Punku for years to tour the archeological sites. I wasn’t sure who to book with because I am deep into the history of the area. Juan Mercado exceeded my expectations in every way. His knowledge of the site was unparalleled and gave me incredible information every step of the way. The day was absolutely perfect. When I come back to Bolivia next year, I will request him personally for all my tour needs.

What an incredible day! - What an incredible day! My exceptional guide Juan and I took a journey across the North Bolivian Plateau to visit this important archeological. It was breathtaking not only because of the ancient expansive megalithic complex, but because it sits at 12,631 feet above sea-level. The site of Tiwanaku is located in the valley between two sacred mountains, Pukara and Chuqi Q’awa. At the temple, in ancient times, ceremonies were conducted to honor and pay gratitude to the gods. Walking around the complex, you are greeted by Andean Yakayaka (woodpeckers), guinea pigs, and brilliant Marguerite Daisies. The archeological site is a maze of megalithic blocks, impressive gateways of monumental scale, and sunken courts pieced together with perfect symmetry. Thanks for a memorable experience!

The picture is very deceptive, but... - <p>The picture is very deceptive, but in spite of it, the tour was great.The tour guide, Oscar, was excellent and we enjoyed the tour on the whole a lot. People, however, should be aware that they are not going to see much of what they see in the picture because it is no longer there. The museum at the site gives a good sense of what is no longer visible, and the artifacts are interesting. The drive from La Paz is also very interesting.</p>

This was a special trip to Bolivia... - <p>This was a special trip to Bolivia as it was my children (13 and 11 years old ) first visit! <br/> Our guide was fun, interesting, congenial and professional. He is a great story teller and showed us many hidden secrets Tikanaku! Thanks !</p>

Nice trip - The trip to Tiwanaku was nice. The company gave us a hotel name and address as a meeting point; unfortunately, the hotel no longer existed which made it somewhat confusing to find our tour guide. But we did finally find him. And the miners were protesting that day in La Paz and we had a terrible time getting out of the city. But our driver did a fantastic job, negotiating, narrow, crowded streets, and we finally were able to get on the highway. All in all a great experience. When we returned to La Paz the tour guide accompanied us on the teleferico (given the blocked streets due to the protesters), and all the way to our apartment to make sure we got home safely.

Lake Titikaka and surround area - We changed our mind and instead visited Lake Titikaka and surrounding area. Nice spot to walk down the hill and rest on the shores of the Lake. Scenery from the road was spectacular

The Tiwanaku site was a fantastic... - <p>The Tiwanaku site was a fantastic site to visit, with a lot of interesting archaeological detail on pre-inca and inca times. Our tour guide, Oscar, was even quite helpful in answering questions we had throughout the site. He did spend a lot of time on the phone, checking it many times during our tour, and also jumping on a couple of phone calls. We were even somewhat happy with the tour until the very end, when the tour was complete, and our guide took us to a restaurant to eat. After eating, he and the driver disappeared, and the restaurant came to our table with the bill -- we had to pay for his and the driver's lunch because he was MIA -- very shady!!! He then proceeded to fall asleep in the car during most of the ride back to La Paz. Unfortunately as a result I wouldn't recommend this tour, unless you can guarantee you'll have a different tour guide that won't pull the same shade.</p>

I was rushed because I was told we... - <p>I was rushed because I was told we had to due the Moon Tour on the same day. My guide spoke 90 of the time to the driver in Spanish while we were driving. When we were at the site he was on his phone 50 of the time talking or texting. I felt like a spare tire. He was a pleasent person but not the best tour guide.</p>
