Spend the day exploring a surreal place on our Uyuni Salt Flat Day Trip. We'll set off from Potosí to experience one of Bolivia's breathtaking locations.

Uyuni Salt Flat Day Trip

At the designated time, we'll depart from the old bus terminal on Avenida Universitaria for our day trip to Uyuni Salt Flat. Upon arrival at Uyuni bus station, we will stop at the Uyuni Train Cemetery to see the remains of Bolivia's first 19th-century locomotives.

Next, we will proceed to Colchani, the gateway to Uyuni Salt Flat, where we will attend a demonstration of the extraction process and observe the unique salt eyes.

The salt extracted by workers is arranged in mounds for drying and transport. We will also visit the Playa Blanca Hotel, made entirely of salt blocks. Weather permitting, we will go to Fish Island, known for its unspoilt nature.

After touring the salt flat, we will have a buffet lunch followed by free time for photos and to enjoy a sunset over the Uyuni Salt Flat. We will then return to the bus station in Uyuni and start our return trip to Potosí, with an expected arrival at midnight.
