Jessica – United Kingdom

We had BisMar (I’m not sure if that’s how you spell him name apologies!) he was fabulous! The tour was nothing short of amazing, and he was extremely informative about the wildlife and environments we visited. Each day felt like we had seen more in 12 hours than we had EVER! The meals were very nice and filling, the accommodation was cosy and sweet, and he drove me and my two friends 8 hours all the way back to Uyuni, stopping for many loo and snack breaks. They drove slowly and carefully to mind the stormy weather, taking great safety precaution. The best three day tour with the kindest team!

Amazing tour! It includes to many landmarks and great places that it’s hard to list them. Our tour guide Bismark was very knowledgeable, funny and helpful! Our driver Jose was great too. Highly recommend this experience if you want to visit a huge amount of Bolivia’s unique places.

Full description

Day 1:
Start your tour off at 10:30 a.m. with a drive out to the Uyuni Salt Flats. The first stop is the haunting “Train Graveyard’, which is found on the outskirts of Uyuni.
Then visit the small settlement of Colchani (salt miners’ workshops next to the salt flats), there, also find handicrafts made of salt, and textile art manufactured of llama and alpaca wool. These make excellent souvenirs to bring back home. Take photos as you cruise along the vast white expanse of salt, wade through “Ojos de Agua Salada”, also visit: a hotel made completely out of salt which is currently used as a museum – restaurant, Flags of the world (Where you can bring yours and put there for free) and a Monument of Dakar racing.

After a morning of exploration, Lunch will be served on the way, following that, have time to take a hike to the top of the Incahuasi island to see giant cacti and rock formations made of petrified coral.

Next, take time to organize your group for fun perspective- and proportion-distorted photos, set on the blinding white surface of the salt flats, playing around with the scene, you can be sure to take some funny, and memorable shots!

Finally, head to a spacious area for the unique experience of seeing a beautiful sunset over the salt flats, spreading its dazzling colors all over the Uyuni Salt Flats, and enjoying it with a glass of wine.

Accommodation: Agencha Hostel: 3-beds, 4-beds, 5-beds, and 6-bed rooms + shared toilets. / no Wi-Fi

Day 2:
Start at 6:30 a.m. for breakfast.
First stop, the Chiguana Desert on Uyuni salt flats Southside, surrounded by volcanoes such as Ollagüe, which is still active and can be seen from the lookout point.
Then, continue along the rocky road to visit: Cañapa, Hedionda, and Chiarcota Lagoons in which flamingoes can be seen.
After Lunch, enter to “Eduardo Avaroa National Reserve”, visit the Desert of Siloli (the highest and driest in the world), and take a picture next to the ‘Rock tree’ (a lava rock formation). Before arriving at the final destination, stop at the overlook point by the Red Lagoon to see more pink flamingos in their natural habitat and admire this intense red-colored lake.

Accommodation: Huayllajara Hostel, shared 6-bed rooms + shared baths, no hot water (to protect the national park) / no Wi-Fi

Day 3:
Get off to an early start around 5:00 a.m. to visit the Sol de Mañana Geyser and walk next to fumaroles and steaming craters filled with boiling mud pots. then, have the opportunity to take a bath in an open air Hot Springs at a 35 Cº water.

The next places to appreciate are the Dali Desert, Green and white Lagoon.

Then head back to Uyuni passing by beautiful scenery along the way and eating a PICNIC lunch along the roadside. On the way, pass by Rock Valley and a small stop at San Cristobal Village just to use toilets.

The tour was great! It is an amazing experience to be on such a wonderful earth phenomena. The Salar de Uyuni is very special. Our guide Gobert was awesome. He cared about us, laughed and joked a lot and made this entire journey very relaxed. The food was mostly very yummy and local. To me at least, it was surprising to only spend one day (the first) on the Salar itself however, day two and three were also great. I recommend to bring along about 3L of water for yourself. I didn't really need mine but only because I drank a lot at breakfast, lunch and dinner. You need good SUNGLASSES! To out it in a nutshell, the tour was amazing and I can only recommend it. Don't expect a luxury travel by car or in the Hostels. Overall, I only dislike the price-performance rario because it would have been totally fine to only pay half the price because e.g. no entrance fee was included.
