This tour is amazing! The tour itself is ran by Salty Adventours who are amazing. The whole team is fabulous and what’s included for the price is unbelievable! The landscapes are stunning and it was a magical experience. The accommodation is basic but adds to the experience and the food is fine. We took snacks with us but didn’t really need them but worth it for piece of mind.

We had THE BEST TIME!! I cannot recommend this tour enough. Miguel and Nitin absolutely made our trip, their local knowledge and understanding was on point and we got see parts of Bolivia that blew us away. Absolute magic. The salt flats a particular highlight but also seeing the pink lagoons and flamingos. Accommodation is basic but loved it being a little bit rustic and being off grid for a few days. We had an absolute blast and will remember it forever. Thank you!
