Newbie Group: Members Posts: 4 Joined: 19-April 09 Member No.: 276353 Nominate me as a Local Expert	Hi, I'm planning a trip to Peru and Bolivia in May, and have found myself stuck and a little nervous that getting in a tour to the Salar De Uyuni isn't going to be possible! My current itinerary finds me in Cuzco on Friday, 22nd May and I'm flying out of La Paz on Saturday, 30th May. That leaves me a week to get down to Uyuni and back again - and not best placed to take advantage of the well recommended Expreso Del Sur (which seems to only leave on Tuesdays and Fridays). Can getting down to Uyuni and back again be done? Perhaps I be looking at a different route to the salt flats? Any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks, Matt
