4-Day Private Bolivia Express Tour from La Paz

This tour exceeded our expectations. Joker Expeditions offered us a very well organized tour. I booked directly with Joker Expeditions (José) and we got a detailed itinerary. They picked us up from the airport at 2am without problem and after that we got 4 days of an amazing experience. Camilo was our tour guide for La Paz, Copacabana, Lake Titicaca and Tiwanacu. Camilo was very knowledgeable and gave us information about Bolivia's history and politics, and it made this trip very educational. Camilo was excellent, very patient and he did everything in his power to make of this trip an unforgettable experience. Johnny was a great driver - and he added anecdotes to the stories. Then, in Uyuni we had Jorge as our guide. He is an excellent photographer and treated us to a nice lunch in the Salar. Jorge was great! Out of all the trips we have taken, this has been the best. Note: Altitude is a serious matter - drink a lot of coca-tea!!

Joker Expeditions offered a very well organized tour with knowledgeable guides and great accommodations. The city tour with Omar was excellent! Also visiting the Tiwanaku archaeological site with Omar was very historically interesting. The Uyuni salt flats are definitely a must see in Bolivia! My only criticism is that the overnight bus ride back to back was not ideal. Take a day off in La Paz to rest before going directly to Copacabana on day 4. Copacabana and la isla del Sol are both wonderful! It is a long day also, to go there and back to La Paz all in one day.

Great itinerary for those short on time. Guides were extremely knowledgeable and went out of their way to make sure I had a great experience. The tour was well organized and there is always someone available on Whats App for questions. It was a first rate seamless tour. Provided meals were excellent. I will be using them again and highly recommend this tour. The tour includes many extras and is a good value seamless

Exceeded my expectations! This was one of the best trips I’ve ever done, especially due to the fact that we had an amazing guide, Liroy, who was very knowledgeable and caring about his homeland and took amazing pictures for us! I highly recommend this tour company. There are many in this area but this one is by far the best!

Maybe during the riots was not the best time to visit Bolivia, but we did so our trip had to be constantly adjusted due to road closures and protests. Jose has no control over the political climate, but he is a master of logistics in Bolivia. Despite losing a day and a half of the tour due to the inbound airline, Jose arranged an amazing trip for us. We were able to see everything that we set out to and so much more. Providing a structured tour does not require any extraordinary talent, but modifying literally everything, flights included, on a moments notice because a road just opened up, is truly amazing. We look forward to coming back soon and spending more time in this wonderful country. Uyuni is just breath taking. There is so much physical evidence that 4000 meters above sea level was once below sea level. We stood on the most impressive fossilized coral reef I have ever seen at over 13,000 feet above the ocean. There are mummies here. The guide will tell you that they are human because they do not want to offend anyone. But they are not Homosapiens. And don't waste your time with the cranial deformation nonsense. That process leaves clears marks on the skull and does not add or remove the growth lines. Nor is cranial deformation capable of inflating the brain cavity to twice normal size. I counted at least 5 non-homospaien skulls. No, I did not say space alien. This is one of those places I am leery to share, because it is completely wasted on someone who does not have an open mind. Joker Expeditions did an outstanding job of showing us everything in a very short time frame. The guides, Daniel, Natty, and Sergio, are filled with current, factual information about every location. And their drivers, Johnny and Rolando, got us everywhere quickly and safely. We went for archaeology and nowhere have I ever seen so much "smoking gun" evidence of a geological and historical past that differs from our text book understanding. Tell Jose you want the Archaeology Tour and you will see things that will blow your mind, unless you refuse to accept what is shown to you. And if you see a giant rabbit with a long tail in Uyuni...you are NOT hallucinating. Although I certainly thought I was and I even considered not telling my wife, because I thought the altitude must have gotten to me. Before you let that last sentence discredit my review, look it up, Viscacha. Joker and Bolivia are really great. We can't wait to go back.
