5.00We went to Cusco, Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca, La Paz, Uyuni Salt Flat, Eduardo Abaroa National Reserve in Jan of 2026. We used Late Bolivia as our tour agency. Eliana helped us to build our itineraries and coordinated all the details. She was very thorough and answered all our questions in a timely fashion. Every stops of our tour including airplane and bus transfer, there were staff greeting us and helping us. The guides/drivers at every tourist attraction were very professional and responsible. they tried their best to give us an unforgettable and joyful experience of our journey. The wine at Uyuni Salt Flats, the market food at Copacabana and the cable car ride at La Paz are wonderful. In the background, Oscar communicated with us throughout the tour to help us with unexpected incident. I would recommend Late Bolivia to everyone interested in touring Cusco of Peru and Bolivia without hesitation.
Incredible experience

5.00This was one of the most incredible experiences my family ever had. The agency was very professional the buses that took is from La Paz to Uyuni were formidable, the tour guide/driver was waiting for us at the bus station with the 4WD that would take us through the salt flats took our bags gave us time to have breakfast and the tour started. The tour guide was very professional as driver, as photographer and as a chef, yes a chef, he stopped at restaurant between the ollague volcano and Uyuni and made a meal for my family before we continue our Journey through the different lagunas. Hands down this travel agency is one of the best agencies I have dealt with. My family is always traveling and this is one of the agencies that gave us the best experience. I strongly recommend using their services
The best alternative for a shared tour at the Salar de Uyuni!

5.00I took the 3 day tour "Bolivia Trip" at the Salar de Uyuni and the Abaroa Reserve, where the red and green lagoons are located, and from the Bolivia-Chile border in Hito Cajon took a 1 hour bus to San Pedro de Atacama. It was a great experience since I am travelling alone and I shared the tour with 3 other UK travellers. The price included 4x4 transporation, accommodation at amazing hotels with heating, private bathrooms and double rooms and all of the meals.The driver Raúl was very helpful , professional and made us fell safe all of the time. Guidance is not included but the tour includes a mobile app that in an audio describes the attractions that we visited. Late Bolivia, thank you for this great experience, I loved the Salt flats!
Super reliable agency great service

5.00We did the 3d/2n tours departing from and returning to Uyuni. I was a bit skeptical beforehand because of all the things you can read on bad drivers in the salar. Our driver Noel had barely any english (we knew that - you've to pay extra to get an English speaking guide ) but did everything he could to make our trip memorable. He took so many pictures of us - he knew our phones better than we do !! He was super careful driving one sometimes quite scary road and brought oxygen and satellite phone. We were on our own too which was great. The two accomodations were really really nice - great rooms with plenty of blankets, really really good food and super staff. Highly recommend late Bolivia - it's pricier than other ones but it's super safe and everything is planned perfectly. They're also great at responding super quickly to emails.
Excellent experience to know this wonder of the world.

5.00After investigating between several companies, we chose to hire the Salar de Uyuni tour with Late Bolivia and it was really the best decision we could have made. We did the Bolivia Trip, organized by Late Bolivia, in which we travel only us and there is a maximum of 4 passengers per mobility. Late Bolivia complied with everything it offered, from punctuality, the services included (water throughout the tour, abundant meals and Tayka hotels, which are really excellent) and comfort in the 4x4. Thank you for having made our experience in Bolivia, better than we imagined.
Well organized trip to Salar de Uyuni, a unique place to experience

5.00We spend 3 days/ 2 nights on this trip to the Salar de Uyuni. The driver/guide was very well oriented, and spoke a lot of the places we went by. In a mixture of Spanish and a little english. He stopped all the places we wanted to stop, and many times he suggested places to stop. He also prepared lunch for us, during the day -excellent. We were 3 people, from Denmark: parents and a teenager age 19. So in order to fill the 4WD car, there was a yet another person whom we didn't know, joining us. It was a highly enjoyable trip. One great scenary replaced the previous. Cant' really tell which was the greatest. Maybe the lagoons -espceially the Laguna Colorada. Also we had good support from our Tour Operador - Late Bolivia. Oscar phoned and wrote to us several times during the trip, to make sure, that everything was OK. Also the Takya hotels were nice, especially considering the location in-the-middle-of nowhere. One of them, 4.600 m. high, was .... lets say ....kind of cold .... but the food was nice and the restaurant OK warm, from gas heating. Highly recommendable trip and Tour operador - Late Bolivia
The most comfortable & enjoyable way to see the Uyuni Salt Flats!

5.00You don't have to "rough it" in hostels & cramped buses to see the Uyuni Salt Flats!! If you want a comfortable, more enjoyable trip to visit the Uyuni Salt Flats, Bolivia Trip Tours offers a better way to experience the Uyuni Salt Flats compared to the typical backpacker options. Bolivia Trip Tours stands apart from the other tours offered in Uyuni. The maximum number of people per group is 4 (compared to the standard 6). The Jeep you'll be spending a lot of time in seats 6 people MAX, including one person up front with the driver, one person in the middle hump, and 2 people in the far back pop-up seats. You'll be spending a LOT of time in the jeeps, and trust me, it's much more comfortable with less people and more space in the car!! On both nights of the tour you'll have your own private hotel room with private bathroom, plenty of hot water, heating in the room, and power/outlets in your room to charge your devices. On the other tours, the first night you can pay a bit extra to have your own private room and bathroom, but the second night, as you’re further in the desert, the only option is a shared dorm with no private bathroom, and you can forget about a hot shower. And despite it being a "desert" it gets COLD at night so you definitely don't want to have to suffer through a cold shower! Another thing to consider -- these places are literally out in the middle of the desert with no access to electricity. They only power they have for heating, hot water, and electricity is solar powered. Most of the other places only turn on the power for one hour at night and there’s a rush for charging your camera and other electronics. Some hotels even charge you for using an outlet! Highly recommend Bolivia Trip Tours if you want a more comfortable, enjoyable way to experience the Uyuni Salt Flats!!
