Day 1

place Day 1: La Paz - Uyuni, Bolivia

Fly to Uyuni and visit Salt Flats (L/D)

At designed time, pick-up from the hotel and transfer to the airport to take the flight to Uyuni. Today we depart for our first foray on to the Uyuni Salt Flats. We'll be picked up from the airport and the journey begins with a short visit to the famed (and rusting) train cemetery, full of rusting train cars that were once used to transport minerals and people to and from Uyuni. We then continue to the salt-harvesting village of Colchani to see how the locals produce salt. After this (finally!) we will reach the great Uyuni Salt Flats, visiting the bizarre Incahuasi Island that is covered in enormous cacti and from where we get an amazing view of the flats. We will enjoy a beautiful sunset in the middle of the endless expanse of glittering salt and then return to Colchani to overnight in a hotel built from salt bricks!

Meals: Lunch, Dinner

Day 2

place Day 2: Uyuni, Bolivia

Eduardo Avaroa Andean Fauna Reserve (B/L/D)

Today our adventure continues through the lunar landscapes of the southern altiplano at Eduardo Avaroa Andean Fauna National Reserve. As the country's most visited protected area, the reserve boasts volcanos, deserts, colorful lagoons, and unique Andean wildlife, such as flamingos. Enjoy lunch next to one of the region’s multi-colored lagoons. Then, we will continue to Siloli Desert, where we will witness the wonder of great rock formations thanks to the wind erosion over the years. The tour will finish with a visit to the red-colored Laguna Colorada before heading to your accommodation for a well-earned rest.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Day 3

place Day 3: Uyuni, Bolivia

Dali Desert, Green Lagoon, Valley of the Stones (B)

Today we continue on to the southern part of Lípez and Eduardo National Park, created to help conserve the region’s flora and fauna. Among other stops, we’ll be able to enjoy geysers and thermal waters and, if you dare, have a soak! Then, we will travel through the (surreal!) Dali Desert and visit the Green Lagoon with Licancabur Volcano as a backdrop. We ́ll have a box lunch en route to Uyuni, passing through the Valley of the Stones, yet another extraordinary geological formation created by wind and sand erosion. We reach Uyuni's hotel for a well-deserved rest.
