Joker Expedition is truly a Joke
I book last minute, and I have done this several times in the past. This time it bite in the butt. I received a confirmation email, time of pick up, was charged $1999.00. The normal routine with Viator. I was booked with the local tour group “Joker Expedition,Bolivia.” Woke up early because my pickup time was 6:30 am. I was down stairs by 6:15. Then 6:35 comes around. I send Joker Expedition a text through the app. No response. I call at 6:45, no answer. I send another text at 6:50, I was curious if the pickup time was wrong. No response. I call again at 7, no answer. At 7:11 I start texting with Viator about the tour. They told me to try to call again after a brief pause in communication. I call and he answers the phone and tells me it was canceled yesterday. I asked why didn’t he tell me, he said he couldn’t find decent flights so he canceled the trip. Again, I asked why he didn’t tell me. He said don’t worry we will get your money back. Joker failed to realize if he had taken 2 minutes out of his day to text, email or call, I could have book with another agency or with my hotel. Now I’m stuck waiting for my refund and struggle to find other plans for my trip. Courtesy goes a long way with people. I lost time, trust in Viator, and now I’m struggling to to find someone help continue this dream vacation. I will admit this is about 50% my fault but the lack of transparency and communication from Joker Expedition truly left me out in the cold.

2 day Uyuni experience
This was a wonderful trip! Everything was perfect! The tour organizers was I. Touch by WhatsApp making everything so easy. Logistics went perfectly. Our guide, Oskar, was very well informed and really smart, knowing everything about the geography, native animals and even the constellations. We highly recommend Oskar to anyone going on this experience. Though this is a more pricey experience, everything is taken care of for you. This was so worth it, and honestly, you get so much for the money!

Salt flats are a must see, but book 3 days
Our guide and driver were so amazing. We loved them. The landscape is incredible. The salt flats are something you absolutely have to see. Our guide was great in setting up some fun perspective photos for us. Definitely my favorite photos from our entire South America trip. We enjoyed the sites in the salt flats and had a great lunch near one of the little islands. The description of our tour included flights to and from Uyuni. About a week out we were contacted and told they weren’t running a return flight from Uyuni to La Paz and we could stay in Uyuni one more night or be driven back to the city. We chose to be driven back as we had things booked the next day. During the first day of our tour it felt like we were constantly running behind though I don’t really know how. It was a really fun day but most of it was spent in the car and we were all feeling pretty stiff and tired. We got a little overwhelmed about the next day being mostly in a car as well plus a 6 hour drive back to La Paz. We decided to cut the tour short and just head back in the morning. Our guide and driver were amazing about this. We appreciated their understanding and accommodation. I 10/10 recommend booking with this tour operation but I think you need 3 days minimum. You can’t really do this tour in 2.

Thoroughly enjoyed!
Private, all inclusive tour! Everything was covered - fights, taxis, meals. Our tour guide Israel was the best, very knowledgeable and we enjoyed chatting during the driving.

Unique experience perfectly organized
The whole organization was perfect. Pick-up at the airport, hotel accommodation, meals, everything was perfect. The two days were very intensive with a strict program. If you have more time, you should add an extra day. The salt desert, the lagoons, the overnight stay in the desert hotel, the hot springs and the still detectable volcanic activity were incredibly beautiful experiences. The highlights for us were the lunch in the salt desert for ourselves and the desert hotel at 4600m. It is tightly organized but the landscapes are simply breathtakingly beautiful. Our guide Oscar knew the answers to all questions and was also able to explain scientific derailments. In Iyuni we had a beautiful room in the Atipax Hotel and a delicious breakfast and dinner.

3-Day Uyuni & Red Lagoon – Flights from La Paz: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for La Paz.
How much does 3-Day Uyuni & Red Lagoon – Flights from La Paz cost?
+
Prices start at $1,895 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in La Paz usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 3-Day Uyuni & Red Lagoon – Flights from La Paz take?
+
Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in La Paz is not rushed.
Is 3-Day Uyuni & Red Lagoon – Flights from La Paz worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in La Paz, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 3-Day Uyuni & Red Lagoon – Flights from La Paz?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 3-Day Uyuni & Red Lagoon – Flights from La Paz suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 3-Day Uyuni & Red Lagoon – Flights from La Paz?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in La Paz can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in La Paz and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 3-Day Uyuni & Red Lagoon – Flights from La Paz start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central La Paz within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in La Paz?
+
On Outty we rank every La Paz experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The World's Most Dangerous Road - Barracuda Biking's Death Road Riding, Death Road Biking Tour, Death Road, Bolivia: Mountain Bike Tour on the World's Most Dangerous Road. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit La Paz?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in La Paz?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
