Did the Death Road mountain biking tour - great experience! A thrilling downhill ride down a winding and bumpy road with an interesting history, and plenty of opportunity to gain speed (should you want!). Started in the cold alpine region, and ended in the hot jungle! Incredible views of the mountains and valleys. Group of 12 with 2 riding guides, a bike mechanic and drivers/support crew - the whole thing was organised very smoothly and with quality bikes, protective gear and clothing, felt safe throughout!

Great tour biking on the Death Road. Our guides Gandalf and Carlos were fantastic - professional and fun. We felt safe at all times. Good buffet and relaxing at the end which is a nice bonus.

The best tour I have taken in South America! Very kind and helpful staff at Altitude.

From the moment the day began, Altitude Adventures had me feeling fully prepared for the challenge ahead. Everything—from the detailed briefing to the high-quality gear—set the tone for a safe, exciting, and unforgettable experience. The team at altitude really couldn’t be more helpful and kind.

A special thanks to our amazing guides, Eloy and Oliver, who were incredibly professional, supportive, and informative throughout the entire ride. They clearly explained each section of the route before we tackled it, which made a huge difference in my confidence and safety. I truly felt looked after every step of the way.

The bikes and safety equipment were excellent, and our driver was always nearby in the support vehicle, ready with anything we needed. On top of that, we were given fascinating insights into the history and significance of Death Road along the route, which really enriched the experience.

If you’re considering biking Death Road, I can’t recommend Altitude Adventures enough. Their experience and care made this both thrilling and incredibly well-managed—a true highlight of my time in Bolivia

I am not a group tour type of guy…
But the ‘death road’ bike tour was amazingly arranged, from beginning to end.
Oliver and his team thought about everything. ...

Simply incredible!! The experience was phenomenal!! Easily worth every penny. If you can afford it I recommend getting one of the more expensive bikes, I got the cheapest one and im sure my knees and hands would've thanked me alot more if I had the bikes with better suspension. The guides Eloy & Carlos were incredible, very informative and made sure we were all safe and arrived at the end in one piece.

Amazing experience! I had such an amazing experience with Altitude! Oliver, Carlos and our driver took such genuine care of us - making sure we were all safe (an important aspect on the Death Road)! It was well worth investing some extra $, the bikes were of super high quality and they also kept us well hydrated and fed the entire trip.

Dope death road mountain biking Great experience, great service, great guides. Isreal was dope af Gandalf is hilarious. There are definitely cheaper tours where you gain with this one is if you want to book simplicity and have the earliest spot on the death road to cross the least amount of people.

Must do in La Paz One of the most fun and adrenaline-pumping things I've ever done.
We only organized this experience the night before, we didn't even imagine what we were up against.

The guys were super helpful in organizing, picked us up at the airport.

Don't miss this pearl of the city, a magical place from start to finish.
For reasons of time we skipped the first 20km of paved road, this allowed us to enjoy the breathtaking view.
Our adventure began on the dirt road, an adrenaline-pumping descent between dangerous sharp bends and unexpected waterfalls.
The expert Gandalf led the way making the descent safe and fun for us. Remember to keep your left!

Gandalf is an exceptional guide, he will tell you all kinds of stories about the Camino de la Muerte and La Paz.

Have a good time!

Great a little adrenaline experience in Bolivia Great company. They took care of us from the way from Uyuni till the end. Very professional, they took care of our safety, bikes were in great shape, I found the tour not demanding, but our girls had a little problem with hurting hands (from breaking). Although at the beginning it was raining it was worth it. (I only suggest when ot is strongly raining, we could avoid first part on highway). Thank you!

Once in a lifetime experience This was incredible experience from start to finish.
Nelson and Eloy are absolutely amazing and make you feel so safe whilst also ensuring you really enjoy the experience.
Everything was so well organised from breakfast to all of the gear we needed and when we began the cycle Eloy led the group and Nelson was at the back so we were very well looked after.
The cycle itself is adrenaline pumping, the scenery all the way through is stunning and the whole day is a real adventure. There’s also no pressure to go at a certain speed. Each person can choose their own pace. Do this trip! It’s brilliant.

Excellent Tour & Safety Standards Excellent experience! I’m confident on bikes but had zero prior experience mountain biking. It was easy to adapt to and the guides at Altitude were EXCEPTIONAL at keeping us safe while having a great time down the mountain.

What a wonderul day!! We had a mega day with Rodrigo!
With pointed bikes we went from cold rainy 4,670 through the most beautiful landscapes and waterfalls via the Deadroad to tropical 1,185m.

The rider Celec not only brought us safely from La Paz back and forth, but was our permanent escort vehicle with snacks, drinks and spare bikes on the way.

Top tour too, because it started right after 6:00 in La Paz and so we had no other bikes in front of us.

Great recommendation and thanks for this awesome experience, Rodrigo and Celec!

An absolutely flawless tour, super professional and not once did we feel unsafe. Our tour departed before all the other companies so we had the road to ourselves. Our guides Rodrigo and Batman were incredible and made the day all the more enjoyable!!

We had an awesome day doing the death road tour with our guide Eloy and driver Estephano! Booked the night before and everything was well organised, bikes were in good condition and we were given a lot of information about the road and region in general which was super interesting. One of my favourite tours I've done while travelling South America. Thank you!

Best Tour Guide ever It was amazing the Guide Eloy was so funny, had perfect english and it was so well planned and structured. The driver was incredible skilled and i feeled very safe, also the mechanic for the bikes was an awesome guy and helped instantly when we had a issue with a helmet. I would book it again if i got more time in La Paz.

A very reliable and professional service for the Death Road! 👌🏼 We had Batman as a tourguide, and he was amazing ❤️‍🔥

Commitment to the customer experience Both the guide and the driver who took us were extremely professional to provide a service that went beyond what was offered.
Much kindness and good vibe, the guide gave us relevant and interesting information throughout the tour.
They both helped us in all the activities related to our filming and helped us solve all the problems that were presented.
The humane treatment and kindness was permanent from start to finish and to close with a golden clasp we were brought back in a good time with a careful and responsible driving.

Very Fun Day from La Paz I really enjoyed my trip with the Nelson & Israel as our guides. Biking down the death road was a lot of fun, and the equipment we were given was very safe. Nelson & Israel made sure to get great photos of us though out the trip as well.

And our drivers Estaban & Lucho were very safe drivers. Especially on roads like we were on today, it’s nice to see drivers taking extra care to make sure we arrived safe.

Also, the hotel pickup is a nice touch! 👍🏼

We really enjoyed our trip and would absolutely recommend this tour.

Brilliant experience. The guides Nelson and Rodrigo were amazing. They made sure we were all safe and happy and provided such a good environment for the tour. All gear was included and we had drinks and snacks on the way. Absolutely recommend while you're in La Paz!

It was a great experience! A mind-blowing bike trip with a great view! Oliver and Israel was kind and professional! I recommend it to everyone!

Had an amazing experience with Altitude. Oliver and Israel were our guides and were fantastic! They really cared about your safety, there was always someone at the front and someone at the back to help which as a slow person was really reassuring! They also took loads of photos and gave them to us really quickly. Couldn’t rate them higher ☺️

Amazing day with Altitude Travel on Death Road! Our guides Oliver and Israel were very informative and ensured we had a safe and fun day. The bikes and equipment were top quality and I couldn’t recommend Altitude Travel more. They are definitely worth spending the extra money compared with some of the cheaper operators we saw on the road with big groups and poor quality bikes.

Had a great day with altitude death road tour, exceeded expectations and would highly recommend to anyone who’s interested! Rodrigo and Nelson were very good guides who make sure everyone’s safe and having fun.

What a great experience! I hadn’t ridden a bike in 7 years and had absolutely no issues. Fantastic guide that goes the extra mile to take those all important Instagram photos.

We had an amazing time cycling Death Road with Altitude Travel. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, and I felt completely safe in their hands if anything were to go wrong. Thank you Altitude Travel for the experience of a lifetime!

I'd highly recommend doing the death road, not only because you'll have a lot of fun doing it, but also because of the amazing views. Had a lovely time with the tour guides Nelson and Rodrigo.

Great experience with awesome guides. Took a Death Road trip with Eloy and Isra and can highly recommend that duo. Everything was prepared and planed, breaks for snacks and rest and some history telling. 10/10

The death road bike tour was great, well worth doing if you're looking for a fun day out of La Paz. Gandolf and his team were all amazing.

I booked the Tiwanaku, transfer to Uyuni, and Uyuni 3D/2N with Altitude. All of the services were excellent. There was a slight issue with pickup for Tiwanaku, but Dorcas from Altitude helped me and I was able to make it. Definitely recommend

Death road with Gandalf the great! Fantastic experience, extremely safe and everything was thoroughly explained. Would highly recommend! 5 ⭐️'s

Had an unreal time biking death road with Altitude La Paz. Wasnt as grueling as i expected, scenery was amazing and Oliver was an unreal guide, wish it went for longer!

We had Gandalf, a great tour guide - very focused on safety which was good for the occasion. Made us feel well looked after

Everything went smoothly on our Death Road tour, Oliver and Israel regularly made sure that everyone was fine and having a good time

Loved this tour. Rodrigo just about kept up with me the whole way! Seriously, reccomend this highly. Safe and fun!

Great tour with great guides! Adjusted to the level of the group. It was a safe, yet exciting experience 🙂

Fabulous, fun outing!! Loved it!!! Fabulous fun outing! Guides were fantastic making sure we felt safe every step of the way, great background and historical info en route, staff very on the ball with communication, picking us up from hotel an hour earlier to avoid strikes in the city, safety briefing, and fun, friendly attitude. Great outing and highly recommend!

Thrilling Adventure with Top-Notch Safety and Stunning Views! I booked the Death Road Bolivia tour the day before, not fully knowing what I was getting into. Israel, Jhon, and Nelson picked us up exactly on time, as promised. We started the day with breakfast on a mountain, surrounded by spectacular views.

There was one incident where someone got hurt, which is why it's crucial to listen to the guides and follow their instructions to avoid accidents. Despite the situation, the team provided prompt care and kept the atmosphere positive, making me feel safe at all times.

Navigating those roads is no joke, so kudos to the driver for handling them so skillfully! If you're into adventure, breathtaking views, and a good workout, I highly recommend this tour. It’s a true bucket list experience ✅

This tour is perfect for anyone looking for excitement, with a team that takes safety very seriously and consists of genuinely great people!

Great experience! The road isn't too difficult, but the drop offs the side are quite extreme. Guides are amazing, bikes are great, small groups, snacks, lunch and t-shirt included! Highly recommend if you are in La Paz!

Death road amazing tour Really nice and fun team !!! Had a great time. I recommend taking the suspension bike option for the decent which makes the difference. we were also able to do a zip line which was super fun

We did the Death Rd bike tour which was well organised and an amazing experience for anyone who can ride a bike! After hotel pick-up, we started with breakfast with a view before we set off at 4300m, snacks along the way (catered to any dietary restrictions) with an epic optional zip line experience. No need to be afraid, our guide, Gandalf, was awesome and safely guided us the whole way, making us feel comfortable while having loads of fun. He also took loads of photos and videos for us so we didn’t have to worry about capturing these epic moments ourselves. Our driver Juan, was also great, he drove safely, got us to and from La Paz and followed along behind us as we were riding. To finish we had a really great buffet lunch, a swim and relax by the pool. Before heading back to La Paz we received a T-Shirt which is a great souvenir. Pack lots of layers, your swimmers (and maybe a spare pair of socks incase they get wet from riding through some puddles like mine) as it can start off being really cold and end up being quite hot as you head down into the tropics! All in all it was an unforgettable day and we couldn’t recommend doing death rd with anyone else but Altitude Travel!

Unforgettable experience on the Death Road Unforgettable experience on the Death Road. We were a very small group (only 3) which made it even better. Our guide Gandalf was amazing, always putting safety first (and then fun, of course!) and eager to tell us stories about the place. Our driver was also top notch, and worked really hard to clean the road after a landslide made it temporarily impossible for the bus to go through.

Would 100% recommend!

Amazing experience and a must do in Bolivia Great tour, well organised, amazing experience for anyone who can ride a bike!

Had such a great experience with Nelson and Batman on Death Road. I was nervous but I felt very safe with these guys, they are so knowledgeable and fun. The bikes and gear were in excellent condition. Highly recommend.

Thrill ride through the Bolivian landscapes This trip was a difficult but fun experience! I highly recommend doing this in Bolivia and booking with Altitude Travel as the bikes they use, the fact we get on the trail before other companies and the expert guides are all excellent reasons. Our guides both called Nelson as well as John the driver made us feel like we were all friends and looked after us.

Nel and his team did an amazing job! We had a proper briefing, good equipment and bicycles. Furthermore Nel told us the history of the death road and anecdotes from his experience as a guide. The buffet at the resort was tasty. Altitude travel is more expensive than other travel agencies but every cent worth it. Highly recommended!

Great tour - highly recommend Really enjoyed the death road with our guides Nelson and Isra - would recommend this company! Stories of death road, snacks along the way and optional extra of a thrilling zip wire! The bikes were really decent ( I took the lowest option and it was still very comfortable and fast), the guides were great, always checking the bikes as we went down. Half way I had an issue with the chain locking and they immediately switched bikes and upgraded it with no hesitation. Good safety gear too but most importantly Nelson and Isra were great fun! Great experience - thank you!

The Death Road Biking tour with our guide Nelson was awesome. The bikes were in great condition and the vibe was great.

Incredible experience Incredible experience! I was very nervous at the start and the guides made me feel so comfortable throughout. This tour was slightly more expensive than others but so worth it - Nelson, Rodrigo, Congo and Oscar were all so attentive and constantly checked that us and the bikes were all doing good! Would definitely recommend

Death road I did my ride with Gandalf and it was amazing. Everything was organised perfectly and ran smoothly. Gandalf is quite funny in the way he gives clear instructions while slipping in jokes.
He led the ride at a quick but safe pace in tricky conditions and allowed there to be a touch of jeopardy without actually being in any danger. Which is what one wants from this experience. I would recommend to anyone

Amazing experience cycling the death road with Nelson and Eloy. We opted for the mid priced dual suspension tour, which seemed a lot more premium than the hardtail group (which had about 10). There were only 4 in our group and both the guides were attentive, funny and caring the whole time. The bikes, although a bit tired, were well maintained and performed well. The best bit...Altitude are the first tour group to be on the death road, it felt like we had the whole road to ourselves and were not fighting for pictures with other tour groups. We had a fantastic experience and would fully recommend Altitude to anyone wanting to ride the death road.

Had a great Death Road Tour with this agency and very good guides. Can recommend this very much as they were punctual, cool and funny and safety was always most important. Equipment was very good and quite new! Love this tour!

Great company to do this once in a lifetime experience. What a journey! We went from cold to warm in a matter of hours. The road is a bit rough if you are a beginner to mtbing. But you are able to go at your own pace and have experienced guides the whole time. Our guides Nelson and Eloy were particularly great, taking care of us and telling us about local history. Great experience!

I initially did the Chacaltaya and Moon Valley tour for 120bs as a girl in my hostel recommended them after doing the Death Road tour with Altitude. Due to enjoying this day tour I then booked for the 3 day Huayna Potosi tour with Altitude too, for 1050bs. Overall I really enjoyed all 4 days spent with Altitude tours, the guides were great, the equipment for Huayna Potosi generally brilliant (the boots were uncomfortable and mitten gloves impossible to do anything with, but clothes and outer layers fantastic) and all pretty good value. I would say take the timings with a pinch of salt e.g. Chacaltaya tour was meant to be 8:30-17 but was actually 9-16 and we were meant to get back from Huayna Potosi between 1-2pm but arrived 2:30pm. The entrance fees for Chacaltaya and Huayna Potosi weren't included nor was the sleeping bag. I would definitely recommend this company for good value and highly memorable tours

Great trip!!! We've never done downhill before and we loved it!!! Awesome landscapes and a lot of adrenaline!!! Nelson and Israel are very friendly, cautious and helpful!!! Edit: I forgot to say about the bikes!!! Fantastic bikes that surely make you more comfortable and confident!! I can bet that if I had a regular average bike I would have fell many times.

Incredible ride on Death Road with Rodrigo today! 🚲 Amazing from start to finish with communication, timing, equipment & good vibes! Once in a lifetime experience! Really recommend!

Excellent tour!!!!! A little scared at first not knowing what to expect but the tour was amazing.the views, wow. We had people from 22-69 so anyone can do it. The guides are pretty cool too.

Great experience with a great guide The tour is highly recommended. Nelson is a great guide who looks after you well, gives good tips and tells exciting stories. If you don't want back pain, it's best to take the more expensive bike 😉 but the nature and views are definitely worth it!

10/10 experience Rafa was a great guide alongside the driver Edwin was very reassuring driving behind the whole way. Top notch bike and equipment and nice snacks along the way. T shirt at the end also!

Mind blowing experience! This has been one of the most amazing experiences we've had in Bolivia! The road is espectacular! You start in a cold snowy mountain at 4680m in altitude and after 52km and some 3 hours you end up at the beginning of the Amazonian Jungle in hot weather at 1185m in altitude, while riding a mountain bike all downhill, it's just mind blowing! Special kudos to our tour team Rodrigo and Oliver for taking care of us during the whole ride! ❤️
