Uyuni Salt Flats

Welcome to Uyuni!!!

Upon arrival at Uyuni Airport you  will be welcomed by your experienced tour guide to start your journey to the Salt Flats.   Uyuni is the world's largest salt flat, on Bolivia's Andean plateau, and covers an area of 12000 square kilometres. The deep silence makes your heart beat faster and plunges you into a surreal landscape where the sky is reflected by the land, playing with your sense of perspective and imagination. Lunch at Inkawasi island, an oasis surrounded by islands full of algae formations and fossils. It is covered by thousands of giant cacti, some of them being  more than a hundred years old,  and over 12 metres high. The landscape of Uyuni merges into the horizon, making this an ideal place for serious photographers.

After this stunning experience you will check-in at  your hotel. Dinner and overnight stay  in an authentic salt hotel on the edge of the salt flats.

** Please be aware that from December to March, there’s a risk of the Salt Lake being flooded. If this is the case, the itinerary will be adapted to accommodate.

Breakfast at your hotel.

Today you will enjoy a full day excursion to the small village of Coquesa at the foot of Thunupa volcano. Stroll around the village and walk to the cave where the Coquesa mummies were found. Box lunch.  In the afternoon,  return to your hotel to relax and enjoy the stunning colours at sunset time.  Dinner and overnight stay at the exclusive Salt Hotel on the edge of Uyuni salt flats.

After your last breakfast at the Salt Lake you will be transferred to Uyuni Airport to continue to your next destination.
