Uyuni Salt Flat - Tahua

La Paz - The Salar de Uyuni is one of the most breathtaking natural wonders on Earth, offering a unique opportunity to experience the grandeur of nature.

The tour begins at approximately 7:00 am, depending on the flight schedule. Guests will be picked up from their hotel in La Paz and transferred to El Alto International Airport. The flight to Uyuni takes about 45 minutes. Upon arrival at Uyuni Airport, a professional guide and private driver will be waiting.

In Uyuni, enjoy a delightful American buffet at one of the area’s most popular restaurants.

Train Cemetery - The Train Cemetery in Uyuni is a significant tourist attraction. This desolate site is filled with abandoned railway machinery. The sight of twisted iron and unused locomotives evokes thoughts of their glorious past in the early 20th century.

Visitors will have the opportunity to take photos during the visit.
