“Unforgettable experience - Amazing experience with Joker Expedition. The Salar de Uyuni is one of the most spectacular places I have ever visited; the sunset there is a unique experience. The guides and drivers were professional and caring. Also visited Lago Titicaca, Moon Valley, and Tiwanaku; all different places and full of history. Highly recommended!” - Reviewed on 2020-02-25
