We booked a tour to the Valley of The Moon and Mt Chacaltaya out of LaPaz. We were there in November, 2019 during the post election protests. We met our guide, Patti, at a rendezvous point near the Prada. The pick up was about 30 minutes late. The part of the tour to the Valley of the Moon was canceled due to protestors blocking the road. We received no refund. We did drive to Mt Chacaltaya and scrambled to the top. Although the walk is not steep and the path pretty good, be prepared for a tough climb given the altitude of about 17,000 feet. You will need to take numerous stops and the climb will take longer than you expect. The views of the surrounding Andes Mountains was spectacular. Well worth the effort. Overall the trip was fine, but make sure you know what you are getting yourself into. Also, we were somewhat disappointed by the reluctance of our guide to stop and allow us to take pictures at various places on the trip. If you choose to take this trip, be sure to inquire carefully about the logistics.

I did the Scree ride with Noel as my guide. Had an amazing time. If you're not familiar with scree, it's basically the loose gravel/shale/sediment you sometimes find at the top of a mountain (I'm no geologist, so take that with a grain of salt). It's a very different feel from single track or trail riding. Think of it as similar to skiing or snowboarding without a trail: you know your destination, and you pick your way of getting there, freestyle. When we went, it just so happened to be snowing at the top of the mountain. This created the added challenge of riding on snow as well as scree. I didn't regret it at all. Such a unique feel and experience. Kind of a mix of riding, power sliding, with the occasional technical or jumpy bits if you choose. No worries if you fall...it's much more forgiving than a single track, as everything is nice and loose. Noel (my guide) and Gustavo (the driver) were great. Super accommodating, did a great job explaining everything (perfect English if you need it), and were really able to recognize my ability level. That meant we were able to push it to my limit and give me a challenge, while not taking it too far. We did multiple runs down the mountain, taking unique paths each time so each time it was a new adventure. The views were amazing! Starting from the top at about 4800 meters (almost 16k feet) above sea level, it felt and looked like we were actually in a cloud. Taking runs from the snow-capped mountain into the little valleys and river beds, you could see all kinds of vegetation pop up. Then at the end, we took a dirt road and old mining trail back down towards the city of La Paz, passing by a beautiful reservoir that was nestled between the mountain peaks. Definitely recommend you give Scree a try, especially if you are used to riding on trails or more technical single track; it's a great way to mix it up. My advice: it is very high up above sea level. So if you are not used to riding at altitude, give yourself a little time beforehand to acclimate, and stay hydrated! Have fun, be open minded, and be ready to slide!

Singed up for a 3 day private tour from (Salar de) Uyuni, through the dessert and dropping me in Chile, San Pedro de Atacama. Jose in the office was great, answering my endless questions and the tour with Maribel and Ariel was perfect. I had the experience of a life time and saw the most beautiful landscapes I had ever seen. Everything was perfectly organised incl hotels, food etc. I had the best time ever!!
