Really nice walk around Asunción with our local Felix. This tour is with a company called Lokafy and they get a local from the area to take you around as opposed to a certified tour guide. They communicate this with you before doing the tour and let you know the situation. The tour itself was very good. Felix’s English was great and he showed us a lot of the sights of the town. We opted for 3 hours which was more than enough. I’d recommend choosing either 2/3 hours. I’ve given it 4 stars as I found it quite expensive. It was over €90 for two people and I thought for a tour with a local as opposed to a certified guide that was expensive.

Felix was the best. It means a lot to hear history, art and politics from an intellectually honest local person who can prioritise it all for me. As we walked the streets he kept running into his friends who then provided yet another perspective.

We took a walking tour of some of the "old" sites in Asuncion, including a couple of museums and official (and ex-official) buildings. Our guide was knowledgeable and helpful in showing us things we were interested in. She even took us to a very good souvenir place, which allowed us to purchase some wonderful remembrances of our time in Paraguay!

Our tour guide, Mateo was excellent! He was very courteous, informative and caring. I have traveled to Asuncion many times, yet Mateo took us to a few, new important historical buildings I had never been too.
We felt very comfortable with Mateo showing us through the city streets and making sure we avoided any foot missteps on the tricky sidewalks.He went out of his way to be sure we had a table in the popular Lido Bar for a wonderful lunch. The Chupin de Surubi is excellent which he suggested.
A real pleasure to spend our morning on this informative tour! Highly recommend!Muchas gracias!

A country with very friendly people, the food... very delicious, I saw very few people, I never saw crowds, very different from the city where I live, unfortunately the walks were only on the weekend and the Paraguay River supposedly also on Saturday and Sunday there are bicycles and boat rides. I was there from Tuesday to Friday and I didn't have that luck. I would have liked to know more.

I am a 61 year old woman who has been to almost 90 countries in my 40 years of travelling, and my patience for crowds, too much information, time constraints and being made to go to 'shopping experiences' in carpet shops, jewellers or spice plantations has reached minus figures, though i will make an exception for wineries. So this little trip was just so, so right for me.
I met the really interesting, personable young woman called Fany at the Pantheon of the Heroes, and we spent a most enjoyable 4 hours strolling, chatting and visiting sites, doing a touch of shopping, and having lunch. It was a beautiful day, and, as i had said that food and drink was one of my interests, Fany had booked us a table for lunch at the restaurant overlooking the Palacio de los Lopez where we had traditional Paraguayan food. Just when you think you have had everything in the world, how refreshing to have something new, and not just different but based on one of your favourite things...cheese. That and that we had the most interesting conversations...it was truly inspirational to speak to a young woman who had already achieved so much in her life, and i really enjoyed our time together.
If like me, you are tired of traditional tour trips, i really, really recommend this.
a total bargain at the price....and she called me the equivalent of an Uber when we realised how late it was to take me back to my hotel...which cost the exorbitant price of $2US.
What a great day. i recommend this in every way.

Nice place, nice people. Good food. There are few places to visit nearby, my trip did not allow me to leave Asunción.

Hi,
Can we do your tour in the afternoon from 2:30 pm on 18 March for 2 people? Or maybe meet us at the airport at 1:40pm? We’re staying in the city that night, so a late finish is fine.
