Salar de Uyuni Holidays

One of South America's most evocative sights, the Salar de Uyuni - also known as Uyuni Salt Flats or Bolivia Salt Flats is a stunning and vast landscape that stretches as far as the eye can see. In the dry season, its landscape offers vistas of pure white as far as the eye can see and the stark landscape contrasts brilliantly with the bright blue skies of the Altiplano. When there is surface water, mirror like pools reflect the sky above and the horizons disappears, creating a surreal effect. Here you can stay in a unique salt hotel which offers a fantastic - and surprisingly comfortable experience.

The fascinating Isla Incahuasi lies in the middle of the salt flats and was once used as a refuge for locals when crossing the salt flats. The island itself is the remains of a volcano and is now home to giant cacti and prehistoric fossils. Take a short walk to the top of the island for incredible views of Salar de Uyuni. This region of Bolivia is also home to the imposing Tunupa Volcano and is another highlight of any visit to the salt flats. From Salar de Uyuni, drive to the colourful mountains of the Cordillera de los Frailes where you will be met with impressive colourful volcanic lagoons. This beautiful landscape of intense greens, light blues and deep red lakes needs to be seen to be believed.
