    One day Uyuni tour was a wonderful memory. The tour was well organized and we did exactly as described. We had enough time every time we stopped somewhere. The guide we had was new and explained it was his first experience but he did a good job to offer information, take care of us and answer our questions. I don’t have any negative comment to make which is rare, so it means I was more than satisfied.

    Informative and fun tour!

    I really liked this tour! Jaime was a great guide who explained a lot on the history of the places we went to (Train cemetery, fish island, salt flats etc). We had a delicious lunch and beautiful sunset views of the reflecting water on the wet parts of the salt flats.
    Excellent tour & Service!

    Great day, great tour, great guide, amazing sunset! Cannot recommend enough. Comfortable cars, good lunch, good wine at sunset!
    Great Tour
    Hugh_M, Apr 2024
    The sunset was great. The guide and driver did a great job explain the history of Uyuni, the train graveyard, and how the salt flats were created. Overall we really enjoyed the tour,
    Awesome!

    An awesome day! The guides were brilliant, it was my partner’s 60th birthday and the guides bought him a huge cake! They were attentive all day long, took some fabulous photos and videos of the group, fed us well and even provided us with red wine. Excellent value for money .. fabulous memories made. I would highly recommend
    Go for the Salt Flats
    Jessica_N, Mar 2024
    The 1st couple of stops were a little disappointing for me; I didn't learn much from the tour guide at the salt factory. However, their planning for the Salt Flats was awesome. Just for that, I'd recommend this tour.
    An entire experience, nothing to show for it.

    Pro: The person I communicated with initially was extremely helpful. I was impressed that they would arrange for someone to pick me up from the bus and take me to a cafeteria to wait for the start of my tour. Con: As a solo traveler to more than 60 countries, I've always relied on the tour guide to help with some photos. I've never had to ask, it's just something every tour guide has offered. My tour guide for this experience offered to take photos of another solo female traveler as well as a couple. The male solo traveler stated that he did not like being in his pictures. I was never offered. Even after stopping for lunch and more photos were taken, I was not offered but again, another extended photo shoot of the solo female and the couple took place. The only way I was able to have photos of myself was because the couple offered to take some for me. The whole purpose of going to the Salt Flat is for the photo opportunity. The cute little photos with all the props, I have no idea what company those people used. No one in our group got that. I was also not feeling my best. I struggled with the altitude as I was getting over a cold. On my previous tour the day before at Machu Pichu, my guide checked on me constantly. This guide barely uttered 2 words to me. (I wore a mask as I was prone to coughing spells when trying to catch my breath at that altitude.) Sadly, I always feel compelled to tip, I regret doing so. Normally, I would never leave a bad review, I try to focus on the positive. But, as I look over my photos, I am so upset because I do not have a single good one with me in it. Very disappointed.
    Amazing

    We had a fantastic day. The mirror effect is surreal and such a unique experience! The tour guide helps you get some great group photos and takes you to some secluded locations. Thanks to Andes Salt Expeditions for an awesome day!

    Great experience. The tour started later then advertise and it was semi-private, but that was totally fine as we enjoyed taking picture with our friends we met.

    Daniel_B, Feb 2024
    We were lucky to have perfect weather conditions to experience the mirror effect in the salt flat. It was truly unique and astonishing. The guides provided us with everything we could wish for (boots, snacks, Picknick in the salt desert, …) so overall we would recommend it to everybody who is visiting Bolivia.
    Wonderful tour!

    We had a wonderful trip on the salt flats with Jose - he took great care of us and shared many wonderful stories and facts - We had a fun and friendly group so the whole day was very enjoyable!
    Great tour, Great Tour Guide
    Terry_T, Feb 2024
    Jose was an outstanding tour guide. Thee Andes Salt Expedition Tour Operator did a great job with planning the day and Jose made it so fun and interesting! I highly recommend this tour. The Salt Flats are so unique and beautiful!

    Amazing day out, well organised and planned, lots of efforts went into taking photos of the group, knowledgable and super friendly. The wine and snacks at the end was the perfect way to watch the sunset. 100% recommend. Thanks so much!
    The best tour company in Uyuni
    CheSayang_O, Jan 2024
    Our tour guide was Julio. He explained in detail so we can understand the story he was telling . The visit to fish island was unique. We had lunch underneath the hut there. The lunch was the best I had in many days . Quinoa, veggies, steak, omelette was to die for including fruits, and drinks. Then we went to visit Dakar Uyuni and turned back to Uyuni mirror . It was amazing out of this world beauty and we had a table set up in the middle of it for wine, cake, chips and etc. I highly recommend this company To everyone. SUPERP
    Fantastic, Superb, Amazing

    An absolutely fabulous day, our host was amazing & helped to get some great photos. The views were spectacular, an experience not to be missed.
    Highly recommend
    Madeleine_F, Jan 2024
    The tour was excellent and the guides made it an enjoyable day! Truly such beautiful scenery to witness. The guides took great photos & funny videos for us all. I’m giving it 4 stars though because we had to wait an hour in their tiny office before the tour started, and that was annoying.
    We had an amazing time on...
    Alex_G, Jan 2024
    We had an amazing time on this tour! We went to some remote locations, that not all other tour companies were going to, so it felt like we were in the middle of nowhere and in complete paradise. Our tour guide was Santos, who was amazing! He was knowledgeable, spoke good English and was so much fun to be with all day. Couldn’t recommend this tour, and especially Santos enough. He made the trip that much better.
    Sensational Salar
    Andrew_P, Jan 2024
    The whole process was well organised, the tour guides were awesome and their knowledge of the history and Salar region was extensive and informative. All the staff went above and beyond and made the tour an incredible experience.
    Average tour. Poor quality lunch
    A_M, Jan 2024
    It rained two days before my trip. So large part of the tour was cancelled. We kept rotating in the vehicle inside the Salt flats for 6 hours. Could not go to the fish island or cactus island as the tour operator said it is not possible due to water logging. The lunch provided was extremely poor quality compared to other tour companies. Otherwise the tour was average.
    Excellent trip
    IreneMarie_P, Dec 2023
    Best trip ever! Shout out to Pepito and Santos. Our tour guide and driver. They're very well organized and professional. Highly recommended.
