Would recommend

I went on this trip solo and was paired with a few people in a jeep (as expected). I can't speak for the entire fleet, but my driver Adaniel was SUPERB. He is Wayuu and was able to teach us more about his upbringing and culture which was the main thing I wanted to gain from this trip. Without him it would have been just a trip in the desert as there's no real culturally-focused stops throughout the 3 days... Whoever I was speaking to at Waleker was helpful and available via WhatsApp to answer questions I had during the trip (in English).

    The desert was beautiful but the “guide” disappointed
    No guide was provided for the tour just a driver who barely spoke and was and appeared fed up the whole time and provided no information about what was going on, where we were going or any cultural information about the area or places we visited. I was English understanding some but limited Spanish and the driver was aware of this yet would angrily speak to me and be annoyed that I did not understand his fast and mumbled speaking that even Spanish speakers who were also in my tour struggled to understand. He would regularly stop the car during driving leave the truck for several minutes and return with none of us knowing why this was the case. I was also told I would be provided written English during the tour but this did not materialise. We were explained about the people/ children road blocks and he would pick and chose who got what food like it was favouritism and on the way back he would drive through the road blocks even though we had plenty of food we supplied left in the bag. This was horrible for us in the car to witness. This bag of food then disappeared before the end of the tour identifying that he was himself using the leftover food for his own purpose. Extremely unsatisfactory tour, would have been better off just going on my own would have learnt the same (nothing) and be $300 better off! Not worth the money even slightly. Would definitely like a refund.
