This trip has been amazing from the start to finish. We were picked up from our hotel at 8pm (I was informed at 5pm via email that the pick up time was moved to 8pm) and we were dropped off at the tourist? office where our guide made sure we had everything we needed. The shared bus was clean and we were able to recline our seats adequately for a comfortable travel and sleep. Upon reaching Uyuni, a guide holding our names was there to pick us and dropped us in a beautiful hotel where we were given a room to rest, have shower and breakfast (the room was beautiful.. one of the people we met said he was not prepared by how beautiful the room was). Moving on, we met our guide Julia who was incredible kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable, flexible and everything we could asked for a guide and this is true with our driver Fernando (although he spoke minimal English, he was thoughtful and made sure our table settings when we had lunch and snack? prior to ending our trip was impeccable). These 2 worked really well together ensuring we will have the best experience ever and they did not disappoint. As for the tour, we were able to see the old trains, Incahuasi Island , etc and the Salar de Uyuni as the highlight where we had the best time! These 2 again made it their mission for us to have beautiful videos, funny pictures and enjoy the sunset with tea (we dont drink alcohol) and snacks. After the tour, we stopped by the same hotel earlier where we were free to use their toilets to freshen up and change for the journey back to La Paz. We were again dropped off the tourist centre, boarded a bus with same quality and when we reached La Paz, somebody was already waiting for us to drop us off our hotel. Overall, this tour has been tailored perfectly and had been seamless from the start to finish. We would definitely recommed JOKER Experience!Fantastic tour, very well thought-out and detail-oriented.

From booking to drop off I was very impressed by the professionalism , flexibility and attention to detail this tour company provided. I booked this tour very last minute on the plane due to change of plans and the only time available was Christmas Day. Jose catered to all my requests and managed to find me a private English guide within hours. The overnight buses were comfortable but due to the dry and hot aircon I got sick. Upon arrival at Uyuni, I was given a hotel room to rest and freshen up. My guide Jeaneth and driver looked after me the entire time. Jeaneth taught me a lot about Bolivian culture and even put on a traditional dance show. She is also a fantastic photographer as she knows exactly when and how to get a good photo. My accommodation was close to the bus station in La Paz but the tour company organized pick ip and drop off regardless. Overall it was a very luxury experience and worth every penny.Salar de Uyuni is in a whole new level. What's not to love about it. I think people really need to come here and see for themselves how magnificent Uyuni Salt Flats really is. Never seen anything like this
