Additional Information

Experience the city from a local’s perspective who is passionate about their home. The tour can be customized to your liking or you can entrust the local guide to give you a well-rounded introduction. Make your travels more about the connections you make rather than just the sites you visit. With our strolling tours, you’ll bypass the ordinary history tours and see the city through the unique point of view of a local. Engage in a tour that changes the way you journey, making it about the people you encounter as much as the destinations you visit. Our city-specific guides (Lokafyers) are enthusiastic about their hometowns and are eager to impart their wisdom and viewpoints. Since Lokafyers aren’t seasoned tour guides and only conduct tours sporadically, they render an authentic, intimate experience akin to a friend showing you their city. After the tour, you’ll feel confident navigating the city and sure that you’ve acquired all the necessary information to maximize the enjoyment of your stay.

Great Experience! - It was an amazing tour with Mateo. Very nice guy, friendly, energetic, patient and very knowledgeable. He has traveled to a lot of countries and he knows so much about the history of Asuncion, Paraguay and South America in general. He explained everything in detail and showed me all the important sites and more. We saw a lot for a two hour tour. We also tried some local sweets and a local drink and I went to a great rooftop bar he suggested after with an amazing city view! Well worth it! Thank you!

Excellent tour in Asuncion - 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!

Great old town walkabout - 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!

Great Walk around the old town. - Estefania was great in explaining information about the city and the different parts we walked around too in the historic center. She goes above and beyond in order to take you around what you want to see based on your interest. She has vivid memories from certain places from her childhood and will explain to you how much the area has changed.
