superbe expérience, 
chauffeur-guide José au top.
paysages fantastiques à couper le souffle.

Julió Cesár nuestro conductor era fantastico. La naturaleza tambien.

4 day tour from San Pedro de Atacama to Salar de Uyuni and back, absolutly wonderful. Lucky to get Ronald as our amazing driver and guide. He managed to get us a glimpse of the mirror effect in December, took great photos while being an excellent driver and mechanic.
The tour is actually 3 and half days, unless customs takes too long, which was not the case. 2 of the seats are really narrow, people should rotate sitting places. About all the advices we got, I have to say we were well fed (snacks advisible but not a must), toilet paper is necessary sometimes but not everywhere, the hotels we got had towels. Be prepared to be ready to hit the road at 3 or 4 am but it will be one of your top experiences.

Es war ein unvergessliches Erlebnis – atemberaubende Landschaften und exklusive Eindrücke, da kaum andere Touristen an denselben Spots waren.
Alles war perfekt organisiert: Morgens, mittags und abends wurden wir reichlich mit köstlichem Essen versorgt, und zwischendurch gab es immer wieder Snacks.

Wir können diese Tour nur wärmstens weiterempfehlen!

Der Trip war ein echtes Abenteuer, welches wir nicht missen möchten. Unser Fahrer war wahr sehr routiniert und wir hatten stets ein sicheres Gefühl. Obwohl die Höhe und der Staub uns die Reise nicht einfach gemacht haben, hat die Landschaft uns jeden Tag dafür entschädigt. Die Unterkünfte sind sehr sehr einfach, aber darauf muss man sich in Bolivien halt einstellen.
Insgesamt war die Tour gut organisiert. Ein Kritikpunkt gibt es allerdings: Am vierten Tag gab es in Uyuni einen Fahrerwechsel. Hierzu musste die Gruppe vier Stunden im Büro des örtlichen Veranstalters warten. Die dortige Toilette war nicht zugänglich. Diesen Fahrerwechsel hätte man kundenfreundlicher organisieren können.

Viaje y experiencia increíble, la pena es que el viaje de vuelta, el cambio de conductor/guía dejó mucho que desear

The landscape was breathtaking, everyday different high lights. Getting up early, the high altitude and the long car rides were strenuous but definitely worthwhile! 
Our driver Vincente was great, attentive and knowledgeable. He made our trip special and memorable.
However, in Uyuni we had to switch to a new driver. He was very young, less experienced and came too late. They let us wait for three hours to continue the journey…

Ottimo tour, guida molto gentile e disponibile

We really valued the experience and met some lovely people. It was one of the highlights of our holiday. It could  have been better if the trip notes had matched the  trip timings as there were earlier starts than the trip notes detailed

positiv:
-) die Tour war im Großen und Ganzen gut geplant und organisiert und entsprach den Angaben von der Buchung 
-) das Erlebnis und die Landschaft waren einzigartig- entsprechend begeistert waren wir
-) die Unterkünfte waren in Ordnung bzw. auch besser als erwartet
-) es wurde sehr großer Wert auf Lebensmittelhygiene gelegt: Obst und Gemüse waren gekocht, geschält oder industriell verarbeitet; usw.

neutral:
wir waren unterm Strich mit einer anderen Agentur unterwegs, als ursprünglich kommuniziert; ob das gut oder schlecht war, kann ich nicht beurteilen

negativ:
auch wenn einem bewusst ist, dass die Uhren vor Ort anderes gehen als in Mitteleuropa möchte ich 2 Punkte erwähnen:
*wir mussten am Rückweg nach Chile in Uyuni das Fahrzeug inkl. Fahrer wechseln (offensichtlich wegen Dienstschluss des Fahrers); das wurde vorab nicht kommuniziert ist aber grundsätzlich verständlich; was nicht verständlich ist, ist der Umstand, dass wir im Büro der Agentur knapp 3 Stunden auf den neuen Fahrer warten mussten- das lässt sich sicher besser koordinieren
*wir haben unseren letzten Tag (Transfer an die Grenze) sehr früh gestartet und die Grenzformalitäten zügig erledigt; leider mussten wir dann im Bus, der uns nach San Pedro gebracht hat, über 2 Stunden auf Reisende eines anderen Jeeps warten; auch hier ist nicht verständlich, warum das zwischen den Agenturen bzw. Fahrern nicht besser koordiniert wird;

The travel was great! The attention from tour operator Estrella Del Sur was perfect, we had a nice Toyota Land Cruiser car and an excellent driver!! 
The only unpleasant part of our 4 days tour was the las day, because our return trip to San Pedro de Atacama was handled by another tour operator (Tambo Loma - From Bolivia), we had a very rude driver, a not comfortable Nissan car and bad food. 
We still loved the trip, but the last tour operator should be changed for a more professional company.

It was a great experience!! We had the best travel group and think that the agency plans that as well very good looking a bit who could fit (age and language wise). It was a little bit too much time in the car during the trip.

This was an amazing tour to a beautiful place. Whilst the accommodation and food were very basic the scenery was spectacular. Our driver Julio explained (in Spanish) everything that we saw along the way and was very well organised with the group.
The days were very long with very early starts but we packed a lot into 4 days.
The landscape is so varied and you are in very high altitude so it is imperative to acclimatise in San Pedro for a few days before starting your tour and bring warm clothing.
Hard to pick a highlight but I think the day on Salar de Uyuni was probably the most memorable. The Isla de cactus and taking fun photos on the salt flats was so cool

Todo muy bien. Excepto que en el alojamiento de la primera y la tercera noche no había ninguna opción sin gluten, mi mujer iba preparada pero de no haber sido así, no hubiese podido comer nada. Por lo demás, genial!

Very nice views and great experience; definitely worth the price!

Gut organisierte Tour. Der Fahrer war freundlich und sehr gut. Er fuhr zügig, aber sehr sicher und nie riskant.
Das Essen war gut und ausreichend.
Die Unterkunft in Villa Mar war allerdings nicht schön und nicht sehr sauber.

El tour está muy bien organizado. Te recogen en tu alojamiento y te llavan a los puntos de interés, adaptándose a las necesidades y preferencias del grupo. 
Lo más pobre del tour serían los alojamientos y las comidas y cenas, pero en cualquier caso satisfactorio. 
Muy recomendable.

Séjour fantastique ! 
Le circuit permet de découvrir une multitude de paysages incroyablement beau.
Les chauffeurs sont super sympa et donnent de bonnes explications.
Nous avons eu un problème avec notre jeep mais une solution a été trouvée en 10min.
Il ne faut pas s'attendre a dormir dans des 5 étoiles mais l'hébergement est correcte et il y avait de l'eau chaude presque partout.
Il est utile de parler espagnol car personne ne parle anglais mais il arrive souvent que sur le groupe de touriste dans la jeep (4 a 6 personnes) il y a au moins 1 bilingue anglais/espagnol.
A faire !

Insgesamt war die Reise sehr schön und gut organisiert. Unser Fahrer (Adomado) in den ersten drei Tagen war sehr nett und kommunikativ, sein Fahrstil war sehr sicher, sodass wir uns bei ihm nie unwohl gefühlt haben. Der Fahrer am letzten Abend hingegen war zuerst nicht sehr respektvoll, er hatte einen rasanten Fahrstil und wirkte sehr genervt. Die gesamte Reisegruppe hatte diesen Eindruck von ihm. Als wir ihn und seinen Kollegen im Hostel fragten, ob alles in Ordnung sei oder wir etwas falsch gemacht haben, haben die beiden nur gelacht, was wir als sehr unhöflich empfunden haben. Auch die Unterkunft am letzten Abend war nicht sehr angenehm, besonders aber durch die Mitarbeiter. Wir haben uns hier sehr unwohl gefühlt, auch weil ein Zimmer und ein Auto durch die Polizei (Precintado FELCC) gesperrt war, was sehr unheimlich wirkte. Erst nachdem die beiden Brasilianerinnen sich bei der Agentur gemeldet haben, haben sich der Fahrer und der Koch bei uns entschuldigt. Die Atmosphäre hat sich dadurch gebessert und der Fahrer war danach auch nett, aber schöner wäre es gewesen, diese Erfahrung am letzten Abend nicht gemacht haben zu müssen. Besonders als Frau sollte man sich sicher fühlen können.

Loved the tour! It was a wow moment after the other. Every single place where you stop is just so beautiful. Everything was well organised and the guide was fantastic!

Tour davvero STUPENDO! I luoghi visitati sono tutti incredibili, soprattutto vedere l'alba sul Salar de Uyuni ci ha ripagati di tutti gli sforzi fatti per arrivare fin lì. Va infatti considerato che non è un viaggio per tutti: levatacce (anche alle 04:00), freddo intenso (in Agosto fino a -12°C), interminabili ore in fuoristrada metteranno a dura prova il vostro fisico. La prima e la terza notte richiederanno poi un FORTISSIMO spirito di adattamento (l'assenza della doccia calda che ci era stata promessa è stato il minore dei problemi). Carino invece l'hotel di sale. Cibo passabile. Menzione d'onore per Carlos (dell'agenzia locale): è stato molto più che un driver, ci ha fatto proprio da guida (nonostante non fosse previsto) e da compagno di viaggio; ci ha sempre fatti sentire al sicuro, e ha realizzato per noi foto e video spettacolari. L'ultimo giorno invece, per tornare al confine col Cile, ci è stato assegnato un altro driver, molto più scorbutico e spericolato... Immagino quindi vada un po' a fortuna. Ma in fin dei conti la spettacolarità dei luoghi vi ripagherà di qualunque sacrificio vi verrà richiesto!

Excelente experiencia en general... pasamos frío en los hoteles

Une belle manière de découvrir les merveilles de la Bolivie au départ du chili.Les décors sont fantastiques. Le prix proposé pour 4 jours , 3 nuits est très correct. Le bain aux termes est exceptionnel par son emplacement .La nourriture à été bonne et généreuse ainsi  que le perit déjeuner à Uyuni. Le logement a l hotel de sel est super.Le chauffeur était très prudent .Le prise en charge est vraiment bien faite .Les moins: le chauffeur ne parlait pas du tout anglais comme annoncé et a donné peu de renseignements. La nuit du premier logement à été très froide avec un chauffage non adapté et il n y avait pas d eau chaude ppur la douche alors que vous mangez pas mal de poussière.La visite à la laguna negra ne fait plus parti du programme car apparement les villageois jeteraient des pierres sur les touristes. Le dernier repas a  ete un repas froid ce qui  n'est pas adapté à la  température  Je recommande ce tour  qui nous a ébloui par la beauté des paysages boliviens.

We had a great driver, the whole trip was truly phenomenal! The landscapes are stunning and the organisation was great.
It can get really cold and some of the hostels don’t have proper radiators. It was fine but it’s really important to bring warm clothes. Also our driver did not speak English, it was okay because we had once person who could translate. But I would probably point these things out before so travels can prepare accordingly :)

Notre expérience s'est merveilleusement bien passée, autant au moment de la réservation qui est simple. Puis de l'organisation avant le voyage : récupération à l'hôtel, échange par WhatsApp pour les horaires par exemple.
Le trajet s'est bien passé, les chauffeurs et en l'occurrence le notre (Miquel) sont très expérimentés pour faire face aux imprévus, respecter les différents horaires et accéder aux différents lieux. C'est très rassurant et agréable ! Le voyage était merveilleux, découvrir des paysages uniques et se déconnecter complètement en étant au milieu de la nature et des réserves naturelles. Le guide (Miquel) était sympathique et il nous expliquait aux moments de nos demandes quelques interrogations. Il était également proactif sur de nombreuses choses et nous nous sommes sentis super à l’aise avec lui ! Il ne faut pas s'attendre à traverser les Andes Bolivienne dans les meilleures conditions de confort : les routes et les hôtels sont rustiques mais très suffisant !
Le petit point noir de notre voyage est que le deuxième jour, nous n'avons pas vu toutes les choses prévues dans l'itinéraire sans explications. Le midi nous ne mangions pas dans le 4x4 mais à chaque fois dans une auberge ce qui explique peut-être les détours. Enfin, certains hôtels et notamment le dernier étaient très rustique : pas de serviette, savon, papier ! Il faut prévoir un minimum de toilettes. Enfin, un petit conseil, les repas sont simples et efficaces mais soyez vigilant et si vous n’aimez pas le lama, prenez végétarien ! Je recommande ce tour, un souvenir et des sensations magnifiques !

L’esperienza è pazzesca, abbiamo visto posti incredibili, paesaggi da togliere il fiato. L’organizzazione in generale non é stata male, c’è un’agenzia locale che si occupa di tutto. Sicuramente il primo ed ultimo hotel non sono il massimo (dopo una certa ora staccano l’acqua e sono molto spartani), ma bisogna contestualizzare dove ci si trova quindi non la considererei qualcosa di negativo, anzi fa parte dell’esperienza. L’hotel di sale invece é fighissimo. I pasti anche sono stati tutti molto buoni ed apprezzati. Le uniche cose che onestamente non ci sono piaciute sono i cambi di programma, abbiamo saltato alcune tappe del perché i posti erano chiusi a detta del driver. Ci può stare che ci siano cambiamenti, ma almeno che vengano comunicati e non scoperti in itinere (tra l’altro solo dopo richiesta). Il driver é stato molto bravo, un problem solver direi: abbiamo avuto alcuni rallentamenti nel percorso a causa di problemi alla macchina (sia nostra, sia di altri guidatori che giustamente ci fermavamo ad aiutare). Anche questo sicuramente fa parte del gioco considerando le condizioni estreme in cui queste macchine operano. In generale é un tuor che consiglierei assolutamente!

Puntualidad y amabilidad 10 super, 
Hospedaje, hotel de sal uyuni muy bien  los 2 hostales muy regulares en villa mar el de llegada no hubo agua para ducharse, comida aceptable bien preparada, camas aceptables. En el de retorno, no hubo luz desde las 8y30am hasta el otro dia por tanto no hubo como bañarse ni hacer maletas  la habitacion no tiene ventanas por tanto ni luz natural. Y la comida de retorno pesima y diferente para los que llegaban

Generally, the trip was great. Wonderful scenery and I travelled with a good bunch of people ie they weren’t screaming and yelling  at the Salt flats dawn and posing for endless photos of themselves. 

I stayed in two different places in Villa de mar. 
The food at the hostel quechua was TERRIBLE- plain boiled spaghetti with half an egg cup of sauce to dab on it . Everywhere else the food was fine. 

There was a tour water problem- a maximum of  a litre a day was handed out  and this isn’t enough for the altitude. Otherwise everything was excellent.

Howlanders arranged this tour in coordination with Tambo Loma from Bolivia. That's how we had the pleasure of meeting Vicente, who was our driver and guide every day of this trip. The views are breathtaking, and you can see animals. Uyuni was perfect. Vicente brought along some equipment to take fun photos in the salt flats. We are very grateful.

Our trip was postponed of 1 day due to snow at the border with Bolivia. We had to wait long hours in San Pedro without any explanation. We got in touch with Howlanders and they got back to us. Fortunately we had the flexibility of postponing. The accommodations, a part from the Salt Hotel run by Tambo Loma in Uyuni were very basic and if you are not flexible and resistant to the cold this trip is not for you. Many people had altitude sickness. We took diamox pills and were fine. It would be better if the locals would serve local food instead of adventuring in spaghetti bolognese that, served to an Italian, made me scream… Having said so the trip is fabulous, the places of unequalled beauty and…why not to make the hostels a bit more comfortable? Overall we were happy with the organization although more explanations by our guide-driver would have been welcome.

O tour foi bem organizado, cumpriram todos os horários programados. Tivemos sorte de ter um motorista que além de muito simpático, era praticamente um guia experiente. A região é muito pobre, então não esperava nenhum luxo, mas apesar de não ter sido afetada diretamente (para mim o que foi oferecido foi suficiente), algumas pessoas ficaram com um pouco de fome, já que a comida em algumas ocasiões não era muita. As hospedagens apesar de bem simples, eram super limpas e aconchegantes. O hotel de sal é lindo. Em todas as hospedagens tive água quente

Die Tour an sich war super. Die Fahrer konnten nur spanisch und einfaches Englisch. Die Unterkünfte in der 1. und 3. Nacht waren leider nicht so gut. An Bolivianos hatten wir zu viel mitgenommen. Das Essen und die Landschaft war wunderschön. Die Zeiten zur Abfahrt liegen deutlich früher. In der Regenzeit ist die Insel im Zentrum nicht befahrbar. Das Programm ist am 3. Tag in Uyuni beendet. Der restliche Tag in Uyuni ist nicht notwendig und es könnte gleich zurück nach San Pedro de Atacama gehen. Ansonsten aber eine gelungene Tour ins schöne Bolivien.

Landschaftlich schöne Tour man sollte Spanisch verstehen. Warme Kleidung von Vorteil. 2x 4:00 Morges Abfahrt. Privatzimmer buchen lohnt sich.

The communication was not great. I had told Howlanders where we were staying via email but the day before the trip, the local agency had DM'd me on Whatsapp asking me directly where we were staying in San Pedro. I thought there could be better communication about the process of crossing customs in Chile and Bolivia. Luckily, I have been to South America before so I knew what to expect, but for travelers who have never been, I imagine that it would be very stressful. The tour itself was great - I enjoyed the tour guide and the group we were with. I just think the logistics and communication of the trip itself could be a lot better.

Salar en Bolivie depuis San Pedro Chili : Très bien organisé. Beaucoup de points de visites, très bien. Pour le transport,  chauffeur compétant, très attentif, et bien communicatif. La nourriture dans les hôtels, pas toujours bien. Trois hôtels : l’un est vraiment bien, les deux autres sont sommaire.  Très beau voyage

Como experiencia positiva destacaría los sitios que se visitan, pero creo que se deben mejorar muchas cosas. Algunas de ellas: 
• El conductor debería realizar las explicaciones en inglés también ya que es lo que se especifica en el anuncio. 
• La cantidad de comida en los alojamientos es correcta, pero se debería ofrecer algo más de verdura y fruta en todas las comidas (desayuno, comida y cena).
• Los vehículos deberían tener un mejor mantenimiento preventivo, vimos muchas averías y nuestro vehículo no fue la excepción.
• El descanso de los conductores es importante y necesario, entre grupos deberían tener un día libre ya que durante el tour superan con creces las horas que debería conducir una persona al día.

Tour spettacolare, emozioni uniche in posti meravigliosi!!
Abbiamo scelto la camera condivisa ma essendo in 2 abbiamo sempre avuto la camera privata, con bagno in comune.
Tour della guida simpatico.
Super consigliato!

Experiência maravilhosa!! Pessoal agradável, simpático, atencioso. Passei mal devido a altitude, recebi maior atenção e cuidado.

We had a brilliant time in Bolivia! The driver was nice and carrying; the car was comfortable and we meet some amazing people on this tour! The locations are breathtaking and the Salar is unforgettable! I really recommend Howlanders!

It was good except the group we were with

Unglaubliche Erfahrung. Das Naturschauspiel, was sich einem bietet, hat man nirgendwo anders gesehen! Man sollte in den Unterkünften und beim Essen nicht mit Luxus rechnen, wenn man sich darauf einlassen kann, wird dies eine unvergessliche Reise!

We had a great time on this tour! Bolivia is very beautiful and we got to see so many amazing sights before we even made it to the salt flats! Pictures do not do justice to it! Our guide was great and very knowledgeable. We were definitely an atypical group as my husband and I were traveling with our 6 and 8 year old. Our 8 year old had to do most of the translating, which they were good about. Additionally we are all vegetarians which added to the complexity of our needs. For the most part the food was vegetarian and good. No one got sick and we had enough food. The most challenging part for us were the accommodations - however that is clearly acknowledged that accommodations are rustic. Showers were hot and they met our needs. Everyone was very friendly and things went very smoothly. I would highly recommend this tour with Estrella del Sur and Tambo Loma.

It was an excellent tour with lots of great experiences and unique landscapes! The time spent at the spots was ideal and we really enjoyed it. Our drivers Isidro and Ramiro did a great job!

Ha sido una experiencia maravillosa. Nos ha encantado y la gente y nuestro guía Carpio eran todos muy majos. Carpio podía responder todas nuestras preguntas y era muy amable :)) Nos hemos sentido muy a gusto !!

A real adventure experience. Long driving but all in beautiful sceneries! Early wake ups so come well rested but very much worth it for the sights you see. Trip all in Spanish, so bring someone who speaks Spanish.

Everything worked out perfectly and as expected

Très bonne expérience avec Howlanders et l'équipe locale. Communication simple et facilité par whatsapp et par e-mail.
Les chauffeurs qui nous accompagné pendant ces 4 jours étaient top: Sandy et son acolyte Miguelito et Mike.

Très bon voyage, mais avec une remarque importante: nous étions 7 passagers venant de pays français et anglophone, ne parlant pratiquement pas la langue espagnole. Il est très dommage, compte tenu de la provenance des clients, de nous avoir proposé un guide ne parlant pas anglais, même s’il était très sympathique.

Tour outstanding. Driver (Renee) excellent. Driver provided fuel generally of good quality but evening meals in hostels of poor quality and for the most part cold and unappetising. Whilst not expecting European Hotel standards the hostels in Villa Mar were of very low standard

The trip was brilliant.  Our guide, Hose was wonderful.

Acho que os serviços da agência local contratada poderiam ser melhores. Refeições melhores, instruções melhores e, principalmente, hospedagens melhores. Não devíamos ser obrigados a ficar em hostel no primeiro e terceiro dias. O local é péssimo, peguei pulgas lá. Um horror. 
Uma outra coisa importante, a empresa local precisa ter um protocolo de procedimento quando alguém passa mal. Uma pessoa do meu grupo teve mal de altitude e a empresa nada quis fazer. Se o grupo não se mobilizasse, poderia ter ocorrido o pior. É pra completar isso acabou com o primeiro dia de viagem,  atrasou tudo e se eu não brigo para termos a reposição dos passeios perdidos, ficaríamos sem ver tudo que paguei. 
Enfim. Lugares lindos, mas Falta um pouco de profissionalismo por parte da empresa local.

Eine großartige, aber auch sehr anstrengende Reise. Unser Fahrer Ariel hat einen tollen Job gemacht. Wir würden die Tour weiterfmpfehlen. Die Agentur sollte den Fahrern nur zwischendurch Pausen gönnen. Einige waren ziemlich fertig.

El guía del tour, Marcelo, muy bueno. Lo peor fue la vuelta, despacharon el desayuno con un café y galletas y tanto el conductor como el guía que nos llevaron a la frontera nos parecieron mejorables, pero al menos fue ya solo para llevarnos a la frontera.

The most amazing places I have ever seen. Fantastic guide. Didn't speak much English but we managed! I will remember these few days for the rest of my life!

Excelente servicio, todo muy bien organizado. Les hostales son buenos, la comida muy rica y los paysajes increibles! Este tour en grupo nos permitio conocer a genres de otras nationalidades, muy buenos recuerdos.

Toda a experiência foi muito boa. Tive um bom suporte online antes de viajar para trocar o dia da minha viagem (com uns 5 a 6 dias de antecedência), e tudo ocorreu muito tranquilamente e de forma simples. Do motorista chileno que nos levou à fronteira da Bolívia, à agência boliviano que nos levou no Tour, foram todos muito prestativos e respeitosos. O guia boliviano (Ariel) foi genial, e tirou várias fotos legais, conversou bastante e nos deu uma boa noção dos costumes locais. 

Somente nas acomodações de Villarmar tivemos hotel com chuveiro sem aquecimento na ida, e falta de internet na volta. Mas isso foi um detalhe.

Fue increíble! Especialmente con Ariel como conductor! Nos ha explicado todo sobre los lugares ha hecho chistes y nos ha ayudado si alguien tenía dolores a causa de la altura.
La comida fuemuy rica también! Especialmente las panqueques para el desayuno!
Los lugares que hemos visto fueron muy lindos y nunca hubiera pensado que el desierto podría tener tanta variedad!
Fue lo más especial lo que he visto en toda mi vida!

The experience was incredible! We all loved it. The driver was also very nice, taught us a lot and answered all our questions. We never waited too long or were in too much of a hurry, the timing was perfect most of the time. The tour is very complete and condensed. The only negative points noted were for us (1) the quantity of food served which was not sufficient most of the time, especially at breakfast, and (2) they did not respect to the letter the formulas paid by people (between the different rooms). Despite these two small negative points, I would 100% recommend this tour, which was really great and very affordable in terms of price compared with other tours. Thank you very much!

Great tour! Highly recommend!! One thing though: instead of booking the tour here on Howlanders, book it directly with the operator: "Estrella del Sur" (Chile) or "Tambo Loma" (Bolivia). You will get the tour cheaper :)
P.s.: avoid eating the food outside of what the tour operator offers - risk of food poisoning...
Also be ready for high altitude, especially the first day where you reach nearly 5000m! It's recommended to stay a few days earlier in San Pedro which is already at 2500m to acclimate properly.

We had a great time exploring Salar de Uyuni and it‘s surrounding attractions. Howlanders connected us to the best local agency: Estrella del Sur. They would have also been the ones recommended by our hostel. Our driver Sandy was able to share some information about things here and there and did a really good job driving on the bumpy roads. The food was very nice in all the places we stayed and the accommodation was good overall. Although the outside temperatures (in September) were below zero celsius we never were too cold to sleep.  The last day back from Uyuni to San Pedro is a bit of a driving marathon but that can‘t really be changed.

It's really an experience to live! The landscapes are breathtaking, especially the sunrise of the Salar D'Uyuni. The hotels were good, very basic but comfortable. No one in the group was sick with the food (we avoided eggs and everything that is not cooked) Our guide was very friendly. I really recommend!

Extraordinaire. Tant pour les paysages que pour les rencontres; une sensation de liberté retrouvée et de communion avec la nature. Cela s est révélé être une vraie aventure pour le quinqua que je suis: bien prévoir son équipement (il faisait froid en août) et accepter une réelle rusticité.

Was a bit anxious before taking on this tour because I was worried about issues crossing the border - but no problems in the end, just reach out to the agency if you have any doubts.

Overall an adventure of a lifetime! We went into this tour only with expectations for the Uyuni salt flats (which was as beautiful as we imagined it to be) but in the end the journey there was spectacular within itself; unreal scenery throughout the entire trip.

Be prepared for a severe lack of connection as this is something we were not too prepared for. We were only able to connect to the internet for a couple of hours on the second day, and then at our hotel in Uyuni. There was no connection at Villa del Mar.

Overall, an incredible experience which I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a unique adventure.

Jusqu’à Uyuni tout était parfait. Une fois qu’on repart de Uyuni changement de voiture beaucoup plus de gens dans la voiture. Hotel a Villamar qui réduit la nourriture au minimum. Départ à 5h du matin le lendemain pour revenir à 10h à San Pedro de Atacama alors qu’il n’y a rien à faire en arrivant à 10h. Vraiment dommage ce manque d’attention à la fin.

Overall we had a good experience, but all our group got food poisoned which made the come back trip a real nightmare. Agencies should be more careful on food preparation to avoid such things. In some hostels hot water was not truly available.

It is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime worth experience as you will see places you have never dreamt of. The landscape is breathtaking; however, you need to be aware that you spend long hours traveling in a 4x4. Avoid the back seats at any cost unless you're short, as there's no room for legs at all. In my opinion, those seats should not be sold at all, as otherwise, you are traveling in discomfort. The accommodation, as advertised, is very basic, except for the night in the salt hotel. We had a very good driver  Renne who was looking out for us and making sure we felt comfortable.Be aware that you spent most of the time at high altitude, and this can take a toll on your well-being. Fifty percent of the people in our group got sick at some point during the trip. Take some pills with you just in case, as you will be literally in the middle of nowhere with no pharmacies around. Was it worth it? Definitely yes! Would I do it again? Probably not, as it took me a few days to recover.

Très bon chauffeur en Bolivie (Rolando Flores) qui a été très serviable, présent quand nous en avions besoin, a l’écoute et qui souhaitait nous faire découvrir le pays du mieux possible afin d’avoir la meilleure expérience possible. Malheureusement nous avons été malades mais il a tout fait pour que tout se passe pour le mieux. Nous le recommandons !

El tour ha estado muy bien, muy buena comunicación y aunque tuvimos un problema de cambio de fechas por el censo de Bolivia,  lo solucionaron de muy buena manera. La agencia local muy competente y el conductor que nos tocó, Ramiro, encantador y muy buen conductor. 
Hay cosas que creo que se podrían pulir, puesto que te cobran para usar el baño del sitio donde estás comiendo y el wifi del primer alojamiento, pero en general está todo muy bien organizado, los alojamientos y la comida están bastante bien  y sin duda lo recomendaría.

Good, but the guide did not even speak 1 word English and did not respect his own time indications. Telling us to be outside at 4 o'clock in the morning and coming out himself at 4.15. We found that respectless. It happened all the time, again and again. 
During driving he was cleaning his ears and scrabbing pickels in his face. We found that very unhygienic, especially because after that he prepared breakfast without washing his hands. I hope you understand this point of view.
He had poor comunication, for example he doesn't say before where we go and how long it takes and if we find toilets there. 
In the beginning he did not present himself, so we don't know his name. I asked him, but did not understand what he said. He was not realy interested. Yes, he didctell where we were when we stopped and what we could see there. But he seemed a computer, not an involved guide.
It is the second time we do this trip, but 4 years ago we had another, better guide, much more interested in having a contact with us, trying to make himself clear and trying to be a guide and not only a driver. This guy was a very good driver, but a bad guide. His indications were poor. Actually he was not a guide, just a driver. If he told something, he just began speaking in Spanish, without turning his face towards the clients or speaking slowly. We were all not Spanish, so he could have used a few basic words in Emglish or have tried to speak clearly and slowly. Afterwards he could have asked 'did you understand'?
Our trip was a 4 day (3 nights) trip from March 15 until March 18 booking (hln-65417).

The scenery of the Bolivian high desert is absolutely unbelievable and otherworldly and this trip was totally worth it for us. However I do want to make it clear to other travellers the experience you’re going to get: there was no hot water the entire trip, I didn’t shower (lol) due to freezing cold temperatures in the desert. The food is also questionable, especially cleanliness in preparation.. There’s no soap pretty much anywhere in public restrooms (which you must pay for everywhere except the hostels - 2-5 bolivianos) The journey is extremely long and gruelling with very early wakeups (I’m talking 4-6am departures). The drivers don’t speak English so you should have passable Spanish or hope that you get a Spanish speaker in your jeep. Now, that being said, if you are cool with all of that, it’s totally worth the amazing once in a lifetime experience. You can shower when you get back ;) and you can use this opportunity to improve your Spanish.

This was an amazing trip which lived up to - and in some areas exceeded - all expectations. All stops provided something exciting and worth seeing, not just the salt flats.
Our driver, Isidro, was courteous and looked after us well, even when a small incident requiring medical intervention occurred. We felt safe in his car at all times. We possibly lucked out as his was one of the newest and most comfortable in the wider group - I'm not sure all are so nice. Indeed the car which returned us to Chile was older with a cracked windscreen and broken seatbelt hence the 1 star deducted.
The accommodations are basic, but met the descriptions provided in the tour outline. They were actually much warmer than we thought they would be. There was a good amount of food provided.
For the most part everything ran like clockwork, all tour agencies, drivers and guides were clear with instructions. The only thing to highlight is if you are taking the tour which returns to San Pedro, keep your national park ticket with you for the return journey. This was not made clear to all members in our group and they had to pay again.
The tour was generally well paced and we got so much out of our 3 days.

It was excellent. Very well organized, visited many places with good guide, spent a lot of time at uyuni and saw perfect mirror.

Todo muy bueno, únicamente la comida flojea un poco...

Amazing scenery and overall experience. Great food and reasonable lodging for the price.

Great uyuni tour, lovely local tour operator! Just 4/5 stars because 5 out of 8 people got food poisoning… Howlander should educate there local partners about food safety and give recommendations to there customers about what food is reheated on their tours. (Tip: stay away from the rice and chicken)

Excellent outdoor adventure. Jeep tour with hotel room is the best way to enjoy southern Bolivia. Excellent Driver/Guide Carlos and great customer service. Highly recommend.

Biggest complaint is waiting almost 3 hours in Uyuni for transfer to Villa del Mar at the and of the tour. Tomba Loma handled this very badly, assigning the car we notified on Bolivian form 250 to another group whom arrived at their office later than us.
The tour itself is great, but you should bemore honest about start times (04:00, not 05:00) and advise that all toilet stops require Bolivares

The tour itself was amazing and our guide (only Spanish speaking) did a great job! There was some confusion about not being picked up because we stayed out of town, and then the morning we were getting ready to get to the office ourselves we got a call that the driver was gonna pick us up. In my opinion everyone just should be picked up or at least dont make this a confusing proces. 

It's a lot of early days and the altitude is heavy, so be prepared for that. Also, most people in our group (including us) got sick with norovirus. We heard later this is very common for tourists in Bolivia, because they don't take hygiene too seriously. So be careful out there with food and maybe take some medication with you just in case. A clever business model though, because at almost every toilet they charge around a dollar...so with a lot of people rushing for the toilet its a great moneymaker 😂

Overal the tour was amazing and I loved the amazing landscape Bolivia has to offer. Really recommend going, just be prepared!

It was a great trip, from the pick up at the accommodation to the drop off, everything was well organized. We were extremely lucky with the weather, the guide Jose was friendly and knowledgeable and all travelers got along well. Definitely an experience not to be missed!

Our driver Renee was amazing! He knew everything and would help with everything!
Accommodations were nice considering they are in the middle of nowhere. The scenery is breath taking. Worth the trip, it was an amazing experience!

This is an incredible tour with lots so see and do. The salt flats and la laguna colorada were highlights. The food and accommodation were good. If you are going in the winter months, take warm clothes, especially for your feet! The vehicles were comfortable. The drivers were super friendly and informative. The whole trip is at very high altitude, so be prepared to feel a the symptoms of altitude sickness. The summer months are probably the best time to go to avoid the cold. I would highly recommend this trip!

We had an amazing time. The tourguide however spoke no English, which made it very difficult to understand. Never the less, the experience was awesome! Bolivia is so very beautiful!

This tour was simply amazing. The driver/tour guide Raul was really professional, helpful, and friendly. As a driver, he was experienced, cautious, and drove smoothly.
The Brazilian tourists with whom we shared the car also contributed significantly to the experience, and I don't know if it was on purpose or not, but putting all of us together was a great idea. 
The only drawback we experienced was that my husband had a hard time with soroche. On the 3rd night, he even had to go to a local clinic in VillaMar to receive oxygen and take some medicine. The good point of it was that the second driver Marcelo was really attentive and drove us to the clinic (even paid the bill in BOB at the clinic and the clinic didn't accept credit cards- at that time we didn't have enough BOB money- and later we paid him back in Chilean currency) 
He also provided us with an oxygen cylinder so that the trip back to Atacama could be smoother.  We were really grateful for Raul and Marcelo whose professionalism and charisma made our experience with a very positive balance.
Maybe the only note to future improvements would be to improve the showers at the hostel in Villamar. The host there was really attentive and helpful as well, and I loved the treatment and food. The only drawback was indeed the shower, once we booked a private room with a private bathroom, but in order to have hot water, the flow was really low at the electric shower. Although I also understand the challenges inherent to a desert area.

The tour was fantastic. We chose the 3 night 4 day tour from Atacama. We got so much value for the price, as the meals were great and the scenery was incredible. The lodging was surprisingly nice for the location, as we were very remote the whole time. The only two issues we had were lack of service/wifi and it was colder than we expected. This wasn't a huge deal, but definitely bring layers no matter the time of year, there are a lot of early mornings and late nights when the sun is down. Our tour guide, Rene, was informative and made us feel safe throughout the tour. I would highly recommend this tour. I felt that the value was incredible for the price.

Although the high altitude, dry air and some difficulties breathing, it was so far the best experience I’ve had in a while. 
The driver was very nice and knowledgeable throughout the trip. The food provided for breakfast, lunch and dinner was also nice. I would just suggest better toilet and shower facilities for the Villa Mar hostel.
