Travel from La Paz to the spectacular Salar de Uyuni

Experience the surreal beauty and overwhelmingly vast expanse of Salar de Uyuni on this journey to one of South America’s most striking natural landscapes. This is a place where things are put in perspective; where the enormity of the scene highlights the fragility of everything else, where harsh is beautiful, time is obscured and reality seems more like a dream.

The remote town of Uyuni sits on the edge of the high altiplano, which extends towards the border with Argentina and Chile.
