I've installed aws-cli with pip3, but can't run aws. if I install it with this command pip3 install awscli --upgrade --user, I get a result like

And if I run command aws, results bash: aws: command not found

I tried to set PATH, but I can't figure out the exact path of aws cli.

which python results /usr/local/bin/python,

ls -al /usr/local/bin/python results 

/usr/local/bin/python -> ../Cellar/python/2.7.11/bin/python

I can't figure out how I should set PATH on my .bash_profile.

It seems the python version you are using is 2.x and you installed aws-cli on Python 3. You could either switch your python to 3.x or install aws-cli on python 2.x. - Cheng-Yu Hsu
It was my fault! I followed guideline for linux instead of macOS. Now I've done it! - Benjamin

Please try this. This will update the awscli to the latest version as well.

sudo pip install awscli --force-reinstall --upgrade

Try this:

sudo pip install awscli

If after this you can't use the aws command try in a new terminal tab or window
