    Hi Folks

    I will be doing the salt flat tour in a couple of weeks in Bolivia and was wondering did anyone do this and could they recommend a company as I hear there are a few dodgy ones about!!

    Cheers

    Probably not all that useful but think the company I did it with was called Blue something or other.

    Just take a stroll around Uyuni or wherever it is you're starting from and see if you can have a chat to someone who's just come back from it. That's what myself and a few others did.

    Have a blast. It's a fantastic trip. I adored it.

    Estrella del Sur were great and they were the only ones we found with generally good reviews.

    if you are going from Tupiza to Uyuni, i'd recommend the group that operate from 'La Torre' hotel. Torre tours i think they were called... went with them this summer and had a great time..... ask for Carlos for your guide... he was great craic... although if you have no spanish he may struggle to converse with ye...
    Food was excellent and very well prepared, and a great variety...
    Enjoy anyway.. its a great experience... not sure what the night time temperatures are like this time of year but most accomodation will be freezing cold (i went in June) so bring yer termals :) .. whether going from or arriving to Uyuni, dont plan on spending any time there... its a dump.. literally!
