Liked a whole day tour and enjoyed - Thanks to Gustavo for driving all day safely and Santiago who gave us Spanish and English tour guide. I joined as solo traveler but they are welcoming and always make sure I am having fun. 運転手のグスタボさんは長時間でしたが安全運転でした。お疲れ様でした。ガイドのサンティアゴさんはスペイン語と英語dwガイドしてくれました。私は一人での参加でしたが、楽しんでいるか困ってないか、常に気を遣ってくれました。 ツアーでのポイントとなる場所や距離、位置関係か、ランチは14時半ごろになりました。お腹が空きすぎないように、午前中の休憩時間に何か食べるか、スナックなど持っていくことをお勧めします。

The salt pans in the family - A place to see and visit once in your life!! When you arrive a Guide explains how the salt is extracted and the process necessary for human or industrial consumption. Then the Guide takes very original photos, and the truth that he puts effort!! We had a very nice time, we went with the family, and everything was fun! We pass through the 4270 meters high mojon, I recommend to do this excursion without problems, do not overeat the night before, or eat light, bring dramamine / reliveran for the stomach sensitive, you can sign up a little.

Unique landscape tour - The tour was very nice. The way is a bit long, but worth it. The salt flat is a unique landscape which worth the way unless you plan bolivia's salar as well. The 7 color mountain is also beatiful, although colorful mountains you see on other tours as well. Ximena the guide was really cute, full of knowledge, and brought for us some natural stuff to try for the very high altitude ( coca leaves, pulsa and more)

Timing is not the same in Argentina - Actually we ended up not going on the tour…. When you are a foreign visitor from Europe, the jet lag might still be in your bones, as it was for us…. When I booked the tour I was told we would be contacted 24h in advance about pickup times. Unfortunate that wasn’t the case and we waited and waited and waited…. By about 8pm we were so tired that we decided to just cancel the tour, since we still hadn’t heard. About 30-40minutes later we were contacted about pickup times, but were almost asleep by then. It might not be such a biggie, but I have come to understand that timing or promised timelines are not the same they are in Europe. But I also think that if you sell something to international customers you have to somehow factor that in. Anyway, im sure it a great tour, but we ended up staying in salta and didn’t regret it.

We had booked a tour in... - We had booked a tour in English, but upon pickup, it became clear that the tour was going to be conducted entirely in Spanish, and we did not understand any of the information given by the guide during the day. The tour company did not communicate the itinerary or any information about the tour prior to the day. They also provided conflicting information about the pickup time, with one message saying 6:30 and another saying between 7 and 7:45. We were ultimately picked up just after 7, but with poor communication about when the driver was arriving. This tour also involved far more driving time than was advertised, with almost 8 hours of driving and only about 3.5 hours of actual tour time, and the first stop for coffee was almost 3 hours into the day. The conditions were also challenging with steep altitude and extreme winds, which we were not well-prepared for given the lack of communication ahead of the tour.

Long day, disappointing guide - Very long day. It was great to see the salt flats and the scenery, but be aware you will spend a huge amount of time on the bus. Was also disappointed that the guide spoke very little English despite me requesting English when booking. No information was given about timings. Didn’t stop for lunch until around 3pm. All in all really disappointing compared to other tours I’ve done.

Misleading Advertising - They charge you what they want. Do not be guided by the price that is published. We bought an excursion at a price and were owed 60% more. They don't report that in the usage policy.
