Smooth journey with good service ! - We did a private tour at Uyuni salt flat for one day. Oscar was kind and gave us a lot of insight of Bolivian history and information about the town of Uyuni. The tour company also assisted us in getting our bus tickets for the same day from Uyuni onward to Potosi. All the arrangements were done smoothly and as expected. Highly recommended while visiting Uyuni.

Salar de Uyuni - 1 day trip - Family trip to Bolivia with Salar de Uyuni as a focal point. I found Tours TransAndino online and connected with them via email then WhatsApp. They made communication easy and were very responsive.
We did the day tour for 7 people (two vehicles) with Mario and Ariel. It was AMAZING!! Mario is very knowledgeable of the area and took unforgettable pictures of my family throughout the excursion. The lunch meal was good and the sunset snack/wine was great. My entire family was very pleased with this unforgettable experience. Highly recommended

EXCELLENT EXPERIENCY - The flight to Uyuni was delayed a bit, somewhat compromising the start of the tour. Even with this problem Geovanne was extremely attentive to me and my wife, who spent his birthday in the salar. I appreciate the professionalism, kindness and quality delivered by Transandino.
The negative point of the salar are the bathrooms that we found along the way, being the bathroom of the isla incahuasi the only decent.
Thank you all!

Unforgettable Salar Experience with Exceptional Guide - This tour exceeded all our expectations! Mario, our driver and guide, was the epitome of professionalism and expertise. His extensive knowledge of the area truly enhanced our experience.
The tour was meticulously organized, with every detail thoughtfully planned. A highlight was the exquisite lunch served in a tranquil spot amidst the vast Salar (salt flats). The sunset drinks were another magical touch that made the day even more special.
Mario's creativity shone through in his picture-taking ideas. He helped us capture numerous stunning photos, including several that were absolutely breathtaking. His eye for unique shots added an extra dimension to our memories.
An unexpected bonus was Mario's excellent taste in rock music! His playlist provided the perfect soundtrack for our journey, adding to the already amazing atmosphere.
I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. If you're looking for an unforgettable Salar experience with a guide who goes above and beyond (and has great music taste to boot!), this is the tour for you. Thank you, Mario, for making our trip truly extraordinary!
