Excellent. - It was a wonderful day and it became perfect thanks to the empathy of the Guide Roberto who was always available to help us, including with the photos ...

Pacha Expedition - The most impressive place to climb and walk especially to be closer to heaven. a wonderful experience in chacaltaya, I recommend visiting this place to have a very peaceful nap time.

Mr - I have visited this tour and enjoyed it. Guide was knowledgeable and cheerful! It cost me about 12-13$. Bought it on bus station in kiosk and went there the same morning. Have a lunch with you because there is no stops for food. It was pretty easy hike to the top, nothing to worry about.

Great! - Was great to go to the top of chacaltaya, Even though it was heavy breathing. Never been so high up before, so it was great. A little sketchy road to the top but it went fine! And valle de la luna was great as well

Lonely and beautiful - Chacaltaya is an amazing place. Beautiful view from the top, abandoned ski resort, lonely, yet fascinating.

Breathtaking views - Signed up with hardly any expectations but left with absolutely no regrets. The altitude is around 5000m and it’s cold and windy up there, so bring your warmest jacket! It’s an uphill walk from the car park to the top for the best pictures. Being an ex-skiing resort, it’s a shame that the building was just abandoned rather that being utilised to provide basic services.

Unexpected pleasure - Our guide Joel was really patient, spoke good english, and shared many interesting tidbits about the two sights throughout the day. We did not feel rushed at all. Drive was in a minivan that was adequate for the small group of 5, excluding driver and guide. Pick up was efficient and on time (leave around 8 am, return around 4pm on a sunday, may be later on weekdays). The tour itself was great, covering two very different but scenic sights, first at the top of a mountain peak at 5375M above sea level, then at one of the lowest points in La Paz, over 2000M lower. Both places have unique views and beauty. Tips: 1)Some walking at high altitudes required so best to be well-acclimatized before attempting. 2)Bring a jacket as it can get windy on the mountain. 3)There is no lunch stop but there is an opportunity to buy snacks at the start of the drive (or prepare ahead and bring your own). 4)Wear shoes with good grip. 5) when comparing tour vendors, consider that this particular tour I did included the entrance fees for both attractions (check the fine print). Overall I would recommend this activity. Well worth the time and costs.

Plenty of fun - Had lots of fun exploring the abandoned ski resort, climbing chacaltaya mountain, and seeing the amazing Moon Valley! Tour started late due to circumstances but the guide made sure to ensure we had a good time. Would appreciate a lunch break in the middle, we were all starving by the time the whole thing was over.

A sunny day turned into a snow thunderstorm - Our hotel was not in the list of the pick up hotels but they changed the itinerary and came to our hotel anyway. That was great. The tour was supposed to be in English but it was half Spanish/English. That's OK but the guide was speaking more details in Spanish and his English was not easy to understand. The Valley of the Moon was OK. The day was sunny. The guide told us about geology of the area and how the landscape was formed. By the time we got to the saddle under Chacaltaya it became cloudy. The guide explained to us how to breathe and how to walk up the hill. So we started ascent. The top of the hill was covered with clouds. The guide encouraged us to keep going saying that in 10 minutes the clouds would be gone. But the clouds were coming down and it started snowing - snowballs the size of big peas! Thunders started, the air was full of electricity. By the time we got back to the start point in the saddle the snowballs were everywhere. We got into the van and started descent along a narrow rocky track covered with snow. Soon the van got bogged in the snow at the edge of the track. We got out and helped the driver to get the van out of the snow trap. We refused to get into the van and started walking down to the safe part of the track. The thunder appeared again so we got into the van to be protected. The driver and the guide wanted to continue driving but we yelled at them not to drive but to wait until the thunder ceased. We asked the guide if he checked the weather. He said the weather changes all the time. That's OK but as an experience guide he should see the signs of snowstorm and cancel the ascent. To see the falling snow, hearing thunder and feel electricity in the air is enough to realise that it was not safe to go up. Not mentioning that descending track changed into a snowy/muddy slide.

Chacataya and moon valley. Cold and hot! - Lack of information about the tours. I found very bad the attitude of the Guide who left me behind in chacataya. In the end, I couldn't climb the mountain alone and I almost lost myself. Not to mention that putting 2 tours so different and to the extremes was quite uncomfortable and tiring.
