    I purposefully searched for a high rated company through which to book this tour, because i wanted the experience to be as smooth and comfortable as possible. There was a lot of waiting about in the office, and some confusion at the start of the day, while various different trips and transport were organised. I specifically asked for the trip to be in Spanish since my partner does not speak English, but it was all in English delivered by the driver of the other vehicle. Our driver did speak Spanish but hardly said a word because the other passengers were English speaking. After the train graveyard, we were taken to get welly boots which we would need for the location of the sunset. It was a free for all, and the closest we could get to our correct sizes (each of us take a size 40) were sized 37 and 44 boots. For the money I spent, I would've expected to have been asked beforehand what shoesizes we are. Obviously this made watching the sunset not as comfortable and perfect as we were expecting. The drive was smooth and it was nice to chat to the others in the group. The salt hotel was nice and lunch very tasty. Cactus Island was extraordinary, but as at train graveyard, the guide just disappeared and offered no explanation as to how the island formed, etc. Other groups had a guide with them going round the island explaining the archaeology. The highlight was the stop for funny photos and videos. The guide was a real expert and gave us a lot of help taking funny perspective shots and directed a hilarious video with all of us in it. We got back to Uyuni at the expected time, and it was a great experience overall. As said, my only disappointments were: - not in Spanish - ill- fitting boots - no background information on graveyard cemetery / cactus island / or indeed the salt flats themselves

    Excellent service from start to end. Really nothing we can complain about; communication was straight forward, the guide was very friendly, the drive & the car war safe and we had a great group. The scenery was undoubtedly the most beautiful I've seen in my life, 5*!

    We did our day excursion to the Salar of Uyuni with the agency Incahuasi. This was a great experience from the first moment until the end. They provided us with a driver called Armando who also works for Sol de Mañana. He did such an amazing job that we would like to write a review also directly for him. He was fully involved and made all efforts to make us happy. He took amazing and funny pictures of us in the Salar. We will thus have super memories and souvenirs of our day in the Salar of Uyuni. Since we heard many bad reviews of drivers who just leave you at some place to get by on your own, it is important to know that there are drivers who take their job really seriously. Thank you very much again Armando for this unforgettable trip and for the great job you did.
