Amazing Experience - Salar de Uyuni - I had an incredible experience on my Salar de Uyuni trip with Al and Coco as my tour guides. Their knowledge of the area was impressive, and they went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable adventure. From the stunning salt flats and hike to the cactus overlooking the salt flats to the stunning sunset, every moment was breathtaking. Al enthusiasm and professionalism made the tour enjoyable and informative. I highly recommend them for anyone planning a visit to Salar de Uyuni. Best lunch and best champagne toast after the tour. Best day ever!

Amazing Experience! Not to be missed. - We were greeted at the airport by our guide Al and driver Consta. We boarded our 4 wheel drive Toyota suv. They drove us out to a small town where we saw how the salt was processed. That is where we entered the salt flats. We drove across to the volcano. It was beautiful and on the edge of the flats. We got out and walked around to see the llamas and flamingos that graze there. While we were doing that Consta set up a great picnic lunch on a table next to the car out on the salt flats. We enjoyed a nice lunch with a spectacular view of the volcano. After that we were taken to the Inca island where we saw the ancient cacti and got a 360 degree view of the flats. Just breathtaking! After we drove around some more stopping to take some fun photos and other spots of interest. Lastly they set up a table for drinks(hot and cold) for us to watch the sunset. They really took care of us well and accommodated all our requests. They were funny and knowledgeable. Would definitely use them again. Thanks!

2-day private tour Uyuni - We were four friends from Sweden on this tour. Our guide Alvaro and chauffeur Coco were friendly, professional and knowledgeable about the places we visited. We can in particular recommend adding the star gazing activity to your itinerary. Coco drove very smoothly and we all found the car comfortable. The food was delicious, fresh and warm even though we were served in the middle of the salt desert. The night bus included from La Paz was very comfortable, the wide seats could be reclined almost 180 degrees. I can highly recommend this tour!

Amazing private tour in the magical Uyuni Salt Flats - We had an amazing time in the Uyuni salt flats. Our tour guide Israle made this trip an unique experience. From the pick up at the bus stop, Israel's amazing skills as a photographer and all his valuable insights, the amazing overnight stay in a salt hotel, the food, the sunset and the flexibility of a private tour, made this trip so special. Thanks again to all the people who took good care of us and showed us rhis magical place. Highly recommend this tour!

Majestic Uyuni - Joker expeditions was awesome. We missed our flight to La Paz, and Jose somehow, magically, pushed out our 2 day tour by a day to ensure we were still able to experience the Uyuni Salt Flat area to its fullest. Johnny shuttled us the 6+ hours each way from La Paz so that we could sleep in the car and arrive fresh for the tour since the flights weren’t operating on those days. We somehow managed to be lucky enough to spend the next 2 days with Israel and Coco. Israel knew all the best spots for photos, and is such an incredible photographer, that he was able to beautifully capture these amazing memories for us. We met others in the area, who were with other tour operators, and learned just how lucky we were to have Israel and Coco as our team. They took us to the best locations at the best times to avoid the crowds, while also giving us the WOW moment of the sunset over a remaining wet area of the salt flat in the dry season. Spending 2 days in the flats was the right way to experience all the magic of the area. We can’t wait to go back to explore more of Bolivia, and will absolutely book our next expeditions with Joker.

Unforgettable and fascinating experience! - Jose the owner of Joker Expedition has taken care of me from the moment I landed at the Terminal Bus in Uyuni until I left. He personally picked me up from the terminal, took me to the hotel and arranged a wonderful tour for me for 2 days! His wife makes wonderful meals as well for lunch during the tour. I also got to stay at his hotel ATIPAX which is super clean, well decorated and the rooms are quite spacious! I stayed here for a few days to work and the WIFI is quite reliable. In addition to all this, his driver/tour guide Jorge Luis is a professional photographer! I had the photos of my lifetime <3 He was also very patient with me as I am not a Spanish speaking person but we managed with my humble Portuguese :)
