Culture & bikes - Perfect full day trip, with a skilled guide who was good at telling about the death road and to ensure a safe descent. They were very helpful in taking great photos and movies of the bike ride

Inti company - This company was very disorganized. They didn't pick me up, and I had to call them multiple times. The reason why they didn't pick me up was unclear. Finally, the came to pick me up around 11am, the guide didn't even provide me breakfast and snacks. The Inti company was very unreliable. There are many local tour companies that are cheaper in La Paz. It is unnecessary to book the tours in advance. Please do not use any tours provided by Inti travel.
