About this activity
Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Train Cemetery, Uyuni Bolivia
This place shelters dozens of old locomotives and wagons from the year 1890.
The remains of the trains take us on an imaginary journey towards a time of flourishing progress, today transformed into a rustic deserted courtyard ideal for the romantic traveler who likes to photograph traces of a not so distant past.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Colchani Handicraft Market, Colchani, Bolivia
You will see how locals manually dry and pack the salt extracted from the salt flat.
There are also handicraft stores where you can buy souveniers made from salt and other bolivian handicrafts.
There are public bathrooms available here.
Duration: 15 minutes
Stop At: Salar de Uyuni, Uyuni Bolivia
At the entrance of the Salar you will see the Eyes of the Salar which are small streams of water that flow from the interior of the earth under the salt. It is said that this water has healing properties due to its saline and acidic contents.
In the dry season, the surface of the Salar de Uyuni has near geometric shapes formed by the salt particles agglomerated in polygons. In the rainy season (December, January, February and part of March) the Salar is covered with water and resembles a giant mirror.
Duration: 7 hours
Stop At: Dakar Monument, Bolivia
During our journey we will observe the Statue of Salt erected to mark the passing of the Dakar Rally in Bolivia. Then we will walk to the old Hotel de Sal Playa Blanca. Next to the Hotel there is a small mound with several flags from around the world. These symbolic flags have been left by travelers visiting Salar de Uyuni. We invite you to carry a flag of your country and leave it at this significant point in the Salar de Uyuni.
Duration: 20 minutes
Stop At: Isla Incahuasi, Salar De Uyuni, Uyuni Bolivia
Incahuasi Island is home to millenary giant cacti (Echinopsis atacamensis) up to 6 meters high. The island is a genuine spectacle of life inside the salt desert.
We will climb the Incahuasi Island until we reach the viewpoint, from which we will have a 360 degree view of the Salar de Uyuni and a privileged view of the Tunupa Volcano.
