Embark on a private, guided full-day tour to the renowned Salar de Uyuni, the largest salt flats in

the world. You’ll be picked up at your hotel in downtown La Paz and transferred to the airport for

a flight to the town of Uyuni. The visit to the salt flats is an unforgettable adventure. You’ll visit the

legendary Cactus Island and eat lunch in the center of the flats. And at the end of the day, you’ll

fly back to La Paz and be taken back to your hotel.

Escape to the desert on a private, guided trip to the Bolivian salt flats called the Salar de Uyuni.

Begin the full-day tour by being picked up at your hotel in downtown La Paz for a transfer by

private vehicle to El Alto airport. On the short flight to Uyuni, in southern Bolivia, you’ll fly over the

Altiplano (‘High Plain’) and get jaw-dropping views of the Andes Mountains.

Less than 1 hour away by air, the town of Uyuni provides easy access to the world’s largest salt

flats. Stretched between distant Andean peaks like a shimmering white carpet, the Salar de

Uyuni resembles a snow-covered lake and covers 4,000 square miles (over 10,000 square km).

It’s home to pink flamingos, 1,000-year-old cacti, rare hummingbirds and hotels built entirely from

blocks of salt. 

Don’t forget your camera, as the blinding white salt flats, framed by mountains and blue sky,

create picture-perfect opportunities. You can observe mirages and optical illusions caused by

solar radiation and the crystallized ground. Weather permitting, you’ll hang out on Cactus Island,

home to a plethora of cacti, unusual flowers and strange fauna. And you’ll graze on a picnic

lunch smack in the middle of the salt flats, creating the feeling that you’re eating in the middle of

nowhere. 

After your unforgettable visit to this wondrous landscape, you’ll fly back to La Paz and be

dropped off at your hotel.
