We booked it because of best reviews. Had trouble paying online (it costs 3$ as it apparently cannot legally be free in Bolivia) but were told via WhatsApp that we can just show up.
Max the guide was good. Very knowledgeable and funny.
We did 5 stops with some walking, all were interesting and I think we covered the basics of the town and learnt a lot of really interesting stuff.
We nicely finished with a Chuflay cocktail degustation and some lunch recommendation.
It was longer then expected (almost 4 hours) and the only thing that bothered us a bit is that Max sometimes used some curse words that weren't necessary imo.
All in all I really recommend this tour and agency, it was one of the best I ever had.
