Overview

Tour to the Uyuni Salt Flats, starting from San Pedro de Atacama — finish in Uyuni or return to Chile!

Go with UYUNI ADVENTURE on a multi-day expedition through Bolivia’s southwest: volcanoes, lagoons, geysers, and the world-famous Salar de Uyuni.

INCLUDES
• Hostel stay: shared, or upgrade to private room + bathroom
• Meals: all meals included
• Transfers: San Pedro hotel pickup + drop-off in town
• Expert local driver (Spanish) | English guide upgrade available

Our commitment is simple: safety, hygiene, and smooth logistics. You just relax and enjoy the raw beauty of the Altiplano.

Not luxury: high altitude + remote Bolivia. Local realities & rugged infrastructure mean power/heating may run on schedules and connectivity can drop—part of what makes it unique.

The itinerary is a general guide and may vary slightly due to weather, road conditions, or local logistics, with any adjustments made to ensure safety and the best possible experience.

8 stops
Meals: breakfast, lunch, snacks
Accommodation: Hostal Villamar, Shared rooms with shared bathroom or Private rooms with private bathroom (Must be booked in advance).

San Pedro de Atacama

Pick-up takes place at your hostel in San Pedro de Atacama between 6:00 and 6:30 AM (to be confirmed). Once everyone is on board, the shuttle bus will head to the Chilean border at Hito Cajón for immigration formalities. After entering Bolivia, enjoy a light high-altitude breakfast while the 4×4 vehicles (max. 6 passengers) are prepared — your adventure begins here! ⚠️ Note: Be prepared for cold morning temperatures and high altitude conditions (over 4,000 m). Warm layered clothing is recommended.

Eduardo Avaroa National Reserve of Andean Fauna

1h
Admission ticket not included

Eduardo Avaroa National Reserve of Andean Fauna As we enter the Eduardo Avaroa National Reserve of Andean Fauna, one of Bolivia’s most impressive protected areas, you’ll discover vast volcanic landscapes, colourful lagoons, and unique high-altitude wildlife. Entrance fee: 150 BOB (paid on site only in cash).

Laguna Verde

Our first stop will be at Laguna Verde and Laguna Blanca, two stunning high-altitude lakes located at the foot of Licancabur and Juriques volcanoes. Laguna Verde is famous for its intense emerald colour, which changes with the wind and sunlight — a perfect spot for photos and breathtaking views.

Salvador Dali Desert

We’ll cross the Salvador Dalí Desert, a surreal volcanic plateau that seems taken from one of the painter’s dreams. Its strange rock formations and vibrant colours resemble scenes from Dalí’s masterpieces. We’ll make a short stop to take photos before continuing our journey through the altiplano.

Aguas Termales de Polques

1h
Admission ticket not included

We’ll stop at the stunning Salar de Chalviri. Remember to keep your swimming costume and towel handy if you wish to enjoy a relaxing warm dip in the Polques Hot Springs, natural thermal waters surrounded by mountains. Bathrooms and changing rooms are available. Entrance fee: 6 BOB (optional, paid on site in cash).

Geiser Sol de la Manana

Here we can almost touch the sky. Located at nearly 5,000 metres above sea level, this otherworldly site looks like hell on Earth. It’s the highest geyser field in the world, filled with bubbling mud pools, steaming fumaroles, and the strong scent of sulphur — a raw display of nature’s power that feels both surreal and unforgettable. Unmissable!

Laguna Colorada

Is this Bolivia’s most incredible natural wonder? This breathtaking blood-red lagoon, tinted by natural minerals and algae, is home to hundreds of pink flamingos set against a backdrop of volcanoes. Words can’t capture it — just take your time to enjoy the magic of Laguna Colorada. Our final stop of the day is Capina Lagoon, a quiet spot surrounded by mountains, before reaching our hostel in Villamar.

Overnight staying. Accommodation is included only for 4D/3N Return option.

Then, along the Altiplano, we will visit Vinto Lagoon, home to birds such as flamingos. We will also observe the Anaconda Canyon and the Sora Wetlands, where llamas and other Andean animals live. The journey continues with a visit to the abandoned village of Julaca.

Sora Wetlands & abandoned village of Julaca – witness high-Andean life, llamas, and the quiet remains of Julaca at ~3 665 m

Chuvica

Arrival in Chuvica for an overnight stay in a hostel built entirely from salt blocks, offering a cosy and unique experience on the edge of the Salar de Uyuni. Seasonal Adjustment – Altiplano Winter (January to April) During the Altiplano winter, a period of rainfall in the central Andes, the itinerary may be modified for safety and accessibility.

From this moment, the exploration begins: endless horizons, surreal reflections, and pure silence all around. The world’s largest salt flat unfolds before your eyes. Let the adventure continue.

Isla Incahuasi

2h
Admission ticket not included

We’ll visit the iconic Isla Incahuasi, in the heart of the Uyuni Salt Flats. Walk among giant cacti and petrified coral, then enjoy panoramic views from the summit. We’ll have plenty of time for creative perspective photos — unforgettable moments in the world’s largest salt desert. Incahuasi Island Entrance: 30 BOB Bathrooms: approx. 20 BOB ⚠️ Rainy Season (Jan–Apr): Access to Incahuasi may be limited due to flooding, but the itinerary will adapt to ensure safety and offer the best experience of the mirror effect.

Colchani

Continue the adventure through the heart of the Uyuni Salt Flats with visits to the Salt Museum, the famous Dakar Monument, and the Forest of Flags, where travellers from around the world leave their mark. A perfect spot for iconic photos before heading to Colchani Village, known for its salt crafts and handmade souvenirs.

Train Cemetery

Rusted steam locomotives from the early 20th century, colourful graffiti, and creative metal art make this place a true open-air museum. We make a quick stop at this iconic site a symbol of Uyuni’s mining past and one of the region’s most photographed landmarks.

Uyuni

It’s time to say goodbye to travellers on the 3D/2N one-way tour. They’ll be dropped off in Uyuni town, while the rest of the group begins the return journey to San Pedro de Atacama across the Altiplano.
