Sometimes tours don’t meet my expectations, but this tour exceeded them. I asked ChatGPT the best rated tour companies for the salt flats and Skyline Travels was number one or two. The reviews reflected this. And my experience also reflected the excellent reviews. Today was SO fun and full of many surprises. One day tour and we saw everything. I seriously highly recommend this tour. Oh and our tour guide was phenomenal. Spoke English, was friendly and kind and professional. Amazing
Great tour seeing all the different parts of the Uyuni Salt Flats, getting a good amount of time in each place. The sunset here was honestly the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen. Plus the glass of wine and biscuits was something I loved but didn’t expect. Highly recommend.
Incredible once in a lifetime experience and would recommend to anyone in Bolivia Guide was very knowledgable and helpful within the entire process. Also very good at taking photos
The tour agency and tour guide gave us the most beautiful experience in our lives. They got best customer service, best tour guide, best photographic settings and skills. I highly recommend their services to all travelers who want to visit Salt Flats Uyuni.
Was picked up from the local bus station and taken to a cafe so I could grab something to eat before the trip started. Our guide was very knowledgeable on the area and history. We had adequate time at each stop to really enjoy the surrounding beauty. Best part was watching the sunrise in the salt flats and out guide creating some amazing pictures I’ll forever remember
This was by far the highlight of our trip to Bolivia! Breimer was a great guide and we had a wonderful time. Salt flats were absolutely stunning.
From pickup to drop off, everything was smooth and seamless! I enjoyed hearing the backstory and history of Uyuni and getting to see a few flamingoes was also incredible! Lunch was tasty and I enjoyed the surprise snack at sunset!
Our guide, Beimar has about 20 years experience on the salt flats so we were in great hands. He was knowledgeable, took amaizing photos and served us a great lunch! We stopped at places away from other cars. I would highly recommend this tour!
Beimar was our guide and he was absolutely phenomenal. I would highly recommend this excursion as it was one of the most breathtaking days ever. Everything was organised so brilliantly from the pick up to the drop-off. The day itself was very well organised and we managed to see so many different things. You really do get good value for money as you get a whole day of activities and our guide was super attentive and caring and he had a brilliant lunch and snack prepared for us. The coach that takes you to Uyuni from La Paz is extremely comfortable and the service on board is brilliant. You then have a whole day of excursions and exploration in Uyuni and then you are taking back to the tour guide office. The scenery and sunset is truly breathtaking and I can’t recommend this tour enough. It is well worth the money.
Excellent tour, you see all the amazing places you have to see in one day and the guide is ver my nice, he explains a lot of things, very patient and offers to do many great pictures, 100% recommend!
