“So I was a bit hesitant to take this tour, due to the other lackluster reviews. They were 100% wrong, I originally booked it as an afternoon tour while in the US, Esteban contacted me and informed me of the excessive heat expected and recommended the morning tour. It was still hot, but nothing like it I did the afternoon tour. Esteban gave me a few options during the tour to try the local foods and drinks, which I loved. He showed me some of the cultural landmarks, but the best were how the everyday Bolivians lived and shopped, the markets were the best thing and even a banda group…”

Review the 2-day La Paz to Uyuni trip: shared bus, salt-flat sights, Incahuasi cacti, perspective photos, and sunset wine.
“Excelente actividad. Vale la pena contratarla, con mi familia disfrutamos mucho, todo en orden con la comida, los guías son espectaculares y todo estuvo muy bien planeado, inolvidable el atardecer. Tomar en cuenta que el bus no es privado es el que tomas en la terminal terrestre, la agencia que hace el tour es una agencia local diferente a la que dice en esta aplicación. Contraté el tour 4 meses atrás y a pesar de que me dijeron que sería bus cama, compraron los boletos un día antes y solo obtuvimos semi cama en primer piso. Sin embargo, recomiendo mucho este tour a pesar de estos pequeños detalles.”
