From San Pedro de Atacama: 3-Day Uyuni Salt Flat Tour

Day 1 We will pick you up at your accommodation and take you in a minibus from San Pedro de Atacama to the border between Chile and Bolivia. After crossing the border, we will change to a 4x4 vehicle for 6 people. On this first day, we will visit places in the Bolivian altiplano, such as Laguna Blanca and Laguna Verde, located at the foot of the Licancabur volcano. We will continue visiting the Salvador Dali desert and the Polques hot springs, where we will have some time for a swim. Also, we will visit the Sol de Mañana geysers, intermittent water springs that gush at 90 °C. Finally, we will visit the Colorada Lagoon, the nesting center of more than 30,000 flamingos. Spend the night in a hostel in Villamar. Day 2 We visit Valle de Rocas, also known as the World Cup or Italia Perdida, the place where the volcanic rock took the shape of what seems to be an abandoned city. Then, visit the Camel, Sora, where you can see wild animals. Stop at a mysterious Lagoon or catal where you can walk and see the typical flora and fauna of the Bolivian Altiplano. See Laguna Vinto, Mirador, and Cañon de la Anaconda. At the end of the day, we will transfer to the Salt Hotel in Colcha K, where we will spend the second night. Day 3 Early in the morning, we will take our vehicle and transfer to the salt flat. We will see the sunrise over the white mantle formed by salt accumulation and then move to Incahuasi Island. Here, we can briefly walk through this limestone rock formation, which contains a giant cactus. Enjoy a stunning view of the salt flat. Afterwards, we will visit the Salt Museum and leave the salt flat through the town of Colchani, where we will make a stop to buy handicrafts. Then, we will pass by the train cemetery to take some pictures before arriving in Uyuni, where we will finish our tour.
