Once in a lifetime experience! - Such an incredible experience! We arrived in the morning and booked a tour for the same day. Our tour guide, Christian, was absolutely brilliant. We spent a full day on the salt flats, saw various monuments, had lunch and even some snacks and wine at sunset. The tour guide made sure we had everything we needed and also took some really cool photos of us. Would highly recommend!

Unforgettable & exclusive eUyuni Salt Flats Experience with Mario - Amazing Uyuni Salt Flats tour with Mario! Everything was perfectly organized, and the landscapes were absolutely stunning. Mario made the experience fun and extremely exclusively. He found us the most secret and private spots (e.g. for lunch) which made the tour unforgettable and unique. Highly recommended!

Book this on and make the trip. Absolutely worth it in every way. - Hands down one of the best tour operators in Uyuni. Book it and make the trip, it will be unforgettable.
They really care about providing an excellent experience from start to finish. The office personnel is in constant communication and follows up on the upcoming booking and provides updates like “know before you go” info.
Mario, the tour guide is a great person and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is having a good time, as well as taking memorable photos. He is an expert.
I cannot recommend them enough!

Great tour with Mario - We did the Salar de Uyuni tour with Mario. He is a very good driver, guide and great photographer. We had a lot of fun and learned a lot about the salt lake and Bolivia. The tour with Mario is highly recommended!! We were so excited that we booked a second tour with him 🙂

An Amazing Day - We had a great day with our tour guide. Mario. He picked us up on-time and took us to see the Uyuni Salt Flat. He is very flexible and listened to our requests. He also took great photos for us and left great memories. At end, we called him Super Mario. So, if you decide to book a tour, ask for Super Mario to be your driver and guide.

Excellent support and impressive experiences, increase hard to imagine - We booked a private 3-day tour and already the communication with the staff in advance was very good. We were picked up on time at the airport, and over breakfast in the cafe we could discuss our wishes directly with the guide. Mario was a tour guide, driver, cook and photographer in one person and he did his many jobs excellent !! He was committed to impressing us with food and information far beyond the normal level. He was concerned at all times about our well-being, responded to wishes and did not strictly adhere to a schedule. Towards the end of the tour he even drove unplanned to a great viewpoint over Anaconda Canyon.
Back in Uyuni, our onward journey for the next morning was already organized by Trans Andino Tours, and we immediately received the bus driver tickets. We can highly recommend Trans Andino Tours and Mario!!

Moreover, all employees in this company always support on my lost passport in Uyuni. They took me to the police station and took me to the airport.

Not recommended. Prices go up and car brakes down! - Not recommended! The price suddenly went up when we arrived in Uyuni and we ended up paying more than we had agreed on before with the operator. The tour was very nice actually but the car (very old and very rusty) broke down on the second day literally in the middle of the wilderness and we had to hitch rides back to Uyuni and almost missed our bus back to La Paz. ZERO apology from the operator for that and no refund for a tour that could not be completed as agreed. In fact the guys never ever responded again after this incident. The guide (Nelson) was great though! But I would never book again with such an unprofessional tour operator that clearly cares little for customers!
