One in a lifetime experience - An unforgettable experience, which I highly recommend if you are in Bolivia. I had to change the tour date last minute and Viator customer support was able to assist right away without any hesitation. The agency contacted me the day before to confirm and to provide recommendations as to what to bring. The tour left at around 11 am and we returned to town at around 8 pm. Our guide Brian was amazing and took the time to not only answer all the questions by the group but also took all the pictures requested. I was solo traveling and the rest of the group (5 in total) made the experience even more enjoyable as they were great humans beings! The sunset experience is something that cannot be explained in words because the emotions experienced cannot be written. Highly recommend tour if you are in Bolivia!

Uyuni Salt Flat 1 Day Tour +Sunset in the Uyuni - A great experience! - I would highly recommend the one day tour to the salt flats. Mr Wilfred was our driver and he took amazing photos and videos. The food was good and Mr Wilfred and the other guide (Hozier) did an amazing job at making the whole day a fantastic experience. Memories made for a lifetime and well worth the money.

Amazing tour of salt flats, good lunch, helpful guide - Small group excursion in jeep. Explores old abandoned trains, lunch on salt flats, photos on salt flats, salt flat island hike, slat flat lake and sunset photos. Returns to Uyuni after dark. The stops for the trains, lunch, and initial photos are too long and could be condensed (with a later start). The island hike and lake/sunset photos were given the perfect amount of time and were amazing.

solid tour of the salt flats - As Lonely Planet suggests, it seems that most of the tour operators have a very similar itinerary/experience. We enjoyed the tour; in particular the sunset over the water with wine and photography guidance from the guide was really nice. Our guide/driver was pretty good, though he drove a bit fast on the way back, which was a bit anxiety-producing as the seatbelts didn't really work. In general the vehicle was older and perhaps not-so-well-maintained, but it did its job. A bit more driving than we expected in terms of the time to and from the Incahuasi (sp?) island. But the island was nice to see amidst the expanse of the salt flat. The office staff were very friendly/helpful. We couldn't pay in dollars via credit card through their site (apparently it doesn't work for US/China/Russia), but the staff person suggested doing it through TripAdvisor. The currency exchange situation in Bolivia right now is a mess, so we might have been charged a surcharge to use Bolivianos. I don't know why one can't (this seems to be generally true in Bolivia) pay via credit card denominated in dollars, if the agencies want to bill in dollars.

No English speaking guide provided - The tour advertise the English guide, but we didn't get one. The group was split into two cars one with english-speaking guide/driver Hose and one with spanish-speaking driver Willy. We were assigned to a car with spanish-speaking guide/driver. English speaking guide Hose was around only for introduction during three stops, which is around 10 min out of 9 hours tour. If you got any questions after that once you started exploring the area, you are left on your own. There were a stop before Salar de Uyuni where immigration services were checking passports and stamps. One of the tourists in our group came to Bolivia from Argentina and immigration services there didn't stamp his passport. It took our group one hour to address this issue with Bolivia immigration because of communication barrier and the only person who spoke both english and spanish was guide Hose who was advertised to be our guide, but abandoned us. Even though there were a communication barrier with our guide/driver Willy, he went above and beyond to deliver the best experience it can be in this situation. He was very energetic, enthusiastic and helped us to make an amazing photos and videos.

Overall pretty good - The salt flat was absolutely amazing. Definitely something that we’ll remember for the rest of our lives. Really recommend the 1 day tour as you get to see so much. Just to add, our guide Brian was not great, not very talkative and made some rude comments to us. Other than that it was great! Maybe just ask for a different guide.
