Pulacayo Trip

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Uyuni at the indicated time and head to Pulacayo, located just 6 miles (9.6 km) from Uyuni.

This small town preserves the old iron locomotives that were used to transport the silver extracted from the mines. During the tour, we'll learn about Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and their legendary train robberies associated with this area.

As we stroll through this open-air train museum, we'll discover the significance of Pulacayo's mining wealth, which spurred economic development in the early 20th century.

After exploring Pulacayo, we'll travel to Tomave, known for its monumental colonial church and striking landscapes. We will then proceed to the hot springs of Tomave set in the Altiplano environment.

Our next destinations are the Warmy Kasilla green lagoon and the Orqo Kasilla light blue lagoon, situated at nearly 5,000 meters (16,404 ft) above sea level, ensuring a remarkable experience.

After 10 or 11 hours of touring Pulacayo, we'll return to Uyuni and drop you off at your hotel.
