The tour begins in the morning and continues until the afternoon, allowing ample time to explore the main sites of the archaeological complex.

During the dry season, from May to October, days are generally sunny and daytime temperatures are pleasant, but nights and early mornings can be chilly due to the altitude. During the rainy season, from November to April, precipitation is more common, which can affect exploration of the ruins. It is advisable to always wear warm clothing and sun protection.

Guides are trained to offer detailed information about the civilization that inhabited the region, explaining the functions of the structures and their significance within Andean cosmology. A guide can also help navigate the complex efficiently, ensuring you don`t miss any key areas. The guide`s cost is often included in the price of the tour from La Paz.
