Is this tour still available? My main priority is the salt fields. Is there an option where I can return to Lapaz on 29th to catch my flight on the 30th. Maybe I can leave earlier?

I'll be in Lima, Peru for business from 10-12November, and wanted to make a trip down to Bolivia after. I am from Singapore and don't have much experience with places with high altitude and I understand that La Pez has quite a high altitude. Wanted to know if there are tours that start at the salt flats and end in La Pez instead so I have time to build up some altitude resistance? I know that either way I'll probably have to take some medication etc. but thought it might be a more pleasant experience if I build my way up to La Pez. Also wanted to confirm if day 1 is just a free day in La Pez with transfer provided? What is the recommended route to get from Lima to La Pez? Just via flights? or would trains/buses be an option as well.

Regarding the altitude, Uyuni (salt flats) and La Paz have the same altitude, so there won't be a difference. If you Wish to get some resistance to the altitude at BOLIVIA, We recommend that you take a short trip (if you can) of 2 to 3 days to Cusco so that you can get used to the altitude and then head to Bolivia. Regarding the transportation at Bolivia: Yes, the first day is just the arrival transfer. You can get to Uyuni by flight or by bus (aprox a 10h ride).

Will i get confirmation voucher? In case i need invitation letter as well can you provide it?

After the payment, you'll receive a Tour Radar voucher. Do you need the invitation letter for the visa?
