A must in Bolivia! - The organization is impeccable. We left La Paz by night bus (comfortable, with sleeping seats and blankets) on time. The next morning we were welcomed at the boutique Atipax Hotel, a beautiful place where we could rest in a comfortable room and take a good hot shower. The adventure in the salt desert then began. Our guide was simply passionate about the area and the desire to make us discover all the beauty of the landscape. His English was excellent. Dinner was super good, but the most magical moment is the sunset aperitif, a glass of wine in hand, on an infinite mirror of water. An unforgettable memory. The day ended in the same bus, still comfortable. I slept with my fists closed, dreams full of head.

thank you soledad & cristian <3 - Special thanks to our lovely tour guide Soledad López Ayaviri and our driver Cristian Cruz Vasquez! These two deserve a major raise! Although we were exhausted from the bus drive and a bit sketched out when we first arrived into Uyuni (you are literally in the middle of no where), Soledad and Cristian made us feel welcome and comfortable right away. We agreed as a family that this Uyuni trip was the best part of our trip. The views on the salt flats were overwhelmingly beautiful and truly a once in a lifetime experience. Soledad's english was impeccable and if you get the pleasure of having her as your tour guide, you are in great hands. We never felt rushed and she gave us space to enjoy the spots we visited. We really appreciated her efforts to make conversation and it never felt forced. You can tell she genuinely wanted to connect with her guests which made the experience more special. Lastly, she did such a great job with the photos and really took her time to get the best shots! Our driver, Cristian, was the sweetest, most professional, and helped us from start to finish. Thank you so much!

Unforgettable - Worth every penny! - This day was one we will remember forever! Our driver Christian & guide Leroy went above and beyond to make the day so special, thank you so much! We were worried about squeezing so much into one day trip but it didn’t feel rushed at all we had loads of time. The lunch set up and the evening drinks for sunset were just so amazing, the food was so yummy too, and they catered for me being veggie as well. Also Leroy took so much time to take the most incredible photos for us, ones we will cherish forever! The whole day was so perfect, definitely book this tour! 😊

A day to remember! - This trip was amazing from being picked up at our hotel to the luxury coach to the hotel we could shower at and were given breakfast to the fantastic day at the salt flats which included a lovely lunch and snacks whilst we watched the sunset to the coach home and the last lift to our hotel. Our guide Soledad Lopez and our driver Erik Cruz were knowledgeable and did everything to make the day extra special ! We can highly recommend it.

Great 24 hour experience - We chose this 24 hour tour due to limited time in Bolivia and although it felt chaotic, all the details outlined in the summary of itinerary were fulfilled. Joker Tours staff is on top of everything and ensures that you’re oriented with respect to all next steps. Even the overnight bus (Bus Cama) was more comfortable than I’d imagined but if you don’t like riding on buses then this is not for you. Also note, some of the itinerary while at the Salt Flats may change due to weather, capacity etc but, in the end, spending about 5 hours on the flats is unmatched.

Highest of Recommendations! Don't Miss Out. - I picked this tour because it worked perfectly with the time I had available, and the reviews I read for Joker Expedition, Bolivia were glowing. I could not be happier with the experience!! I purchased two tickets for myself and a friend - we had an outstanding guide, Jeaneth Menchaca and drive who spoiled and doted on the two of us the entire day. We saw all the usual sights in the tour, the train graveyard; a salt mill and learned about how salt is harvested, processed, and used (even to build furnature, or walls, etc); Isla Incanhuasi (Cactus); Nice 'secluded lunch' on the salt flats - so memorable; taking all the fun photos with dinos, etc; sharing a bottle of wine and anacks while watching the sun set - we were fortunate to be able to drive to an area that had standing water for more amazing photos of reflections - boots were provided for walking in the walter. We felt no rush from our guide - she went out of her way to make sure we didn't feel hurried. Pacing was very good. She is an excellent ambassador of her country - she was a perfect match for us. Highly highly recommend! So worth it. My only recommendation would be to do a four day tour to see and experience more. This experience was a teaser as there is so much more to Bolivia to see and experience.

Pickup and return comms could be better. Great guide. Amazing day - We had a great guide and an amazing day. However pickup and return communications could have been better. We were picked up from out hotel at the set time and taken to the counter of a bus company in a large noisy bus terminal. The driver told us he would meet us there at 9:15AM in two days. We then had to wait around for another 1hr 45min before we could board. We would rather have waited at the hotel. The overnight bus ride was bumpy and noisy. thankfully I had earplugs and an eye mask so was able to get some sleep. We were collected at the bust terminal and taken by car to a lovely hotel for breakfast but there was another 3 hour wait before our tour would begin. Our Guide and driver arrived 30min earliere than expected which was a big relief. From there the day was amazing. They came with a large Lexus 4WD which had all the creature comforts. They took us to see some local sights. We did not get taken to any unnecessary souvenir straps that so many tours seem to take you to. Lunch on the salt flats was in an amazing isolated bay of an island away from other tour groups and we had plenty of time to take photos and play with the effects that can only be done on such a vast white canvas. Our guide had a wealth of knowledge of indigenous tradition and legend. Sunset was incredible. The bus ride back to to La Paz was much the same as the ride there. We arrived early (6AM) and since our driver would not be picking us up for another three hours, and did not respond to WhatsApp we decided to Uber back to the hotel (not expensive) instead.

Wasted 3 hours that morning - To start off the day you get picked up very early then you arrive at a small hotel for breakfast. We were ALL told on signup we were leaving by 8:30 for our tour. But after eating breakfast, we were told that our guide wasnt coming til 10:30 Everyone in the lobby felt disgusted because WHY get us up so early and take us to pick up point…to wait 2 1/2 hours!!! We all got VERY BORED just sitting around. So I recommend DO NOT GO WITH JOKER EXPEDITIONS
