The tour was a fantasy. We were a group of 6 friends and were picked up by Edu and Victor, very punctually, in 2 4x4 vehicles, just as we had booked. These people were very kind, respectful, and careful. They told us about each place and showed us the unimaginable beauty of Bolivia. The tour is highly recommended. The hotel along the route was very good, clean, with good heating and hot water. Excellent facilities for stopping and getting to the salt flats were excellent. The food along the way was basic but hygienic.

The 3-day tour of the Salar de Uyuni is a spectacular experience and highly recommended. It offers unique landscapes such as the salt desert, colorful lagoons, and geysers. Although the accommodation is basic and the climate extreme, the natural beauty more than makes up for it. Despite the cold and the conditions, it is a great experience. Overall rating: 9/10.

Really incredible adventure. The accommodation is pretty basic but sufficient for a couple of days. April was a great time as we got the reflection effect and also the perspective photos. Our driver and our guide were both named Jose and were both very helpful. Highly recommended!
