AlbuqRay Says: Laguna Blanca is very close to Laguna Verde near the Chile border. There is an outpost there where you can catch a bus to San Pedro, Chile, if you are headed south. So my guide could get back to La Paz to take care of a family matter, we decided to drive all the way back to...
SanguiniA Says: Savvy travellers know that the main source of fun on the Salar are the silly perspective-less pictures. Since everywhere is white, you lose your perscpective completely and it is hard to judge distances between objects. So you can get as creative as you want when taking...
SanguiniA Says: In the desolate, dusty outskirts of Uyuni there is a train cemetary. The setting is perfect for this collection of rusted, age-old locomotives forgotten in the middle of nowhere. Makes for some good photographic opportunities and some fun exploring the train carcasses.
PrincessMonja Says: Great restaurant with a nice atmosphere. This was the best food I'd had in almost two months in South America!Price indicated includes a beer, a glass of wine and then a bottle of wine!
I had pasta which was yummy (large portions) and my husband had a huge pizza which was...
marcelo15 Says: Actually there are two trains that go from Oruro To Uyuni...so far i know that the train companies are: EXPRESO DEL SUR AND WARA WARA. the first is a little bit expensive but much more confortable. and the go to Uyuni every tuesday and friday. they departs from the train...
SanguiniA Says: I started out this trip from San Pedro de Atacama in Chile. Similar trips can be organized from Bolivia of course, with Uyuni and Tupiza being the most famous start-off points. The advantage of starting from San Pedro is that you get to do the circuit in reverse - which...
SanguiniA Says: Travel by yourself to do this circuit is probably not done in this area - definitely not if you are going from San Pedro in Chile. You cannot take a car across the border and the buses will not be touring the circuit. Also the driving conditions are treacherous and you can...
SanguiniA Says: You will inevitably hear many horror stories of these trips to the Salt Flats, and I have to say that some of them are true, especially about the driving. Bolivians drive in a horrendous manner and we have seen with our own eyes accidents occurring with other groups...
renu.nico Says: If you ever find yourself needing to book a tour to Salar de Uyuni, NEVER BOOK WITH ‘SUMAJ JALLPA’. Why?- Their 4x4 is crap. We were over taken by every other jeep throughout the 3 days, and it seemed to be constantly overheating as the driver had to stop on several...
LaPaz3600M Says: I had an excellent tour. I booked with Swiss Bolivian adventures based in La Paz, and they just took all the hassle away and arranged everything from the bus ticket from La Paz to the hotel in Uyuni and the tour on the Salar. On return I booked my jungle trip with them they...
SanguiniA Says: *No suitcases! Backpacks are the best bet as they will be stacked on the top of the car
* make sure to have warm clothes that can be layered to deal with the temperature changes. Gloves, beanies and scarves are suggested as well, and a warm jacket is a must. Ideally...
Iturry-Yamamoto Says:
please take a windbreaker, warm clothes (at night the temperature drops to around -5 to -15°C), hat, sunglasses, sun screen lotion.
Bring medicines and / or articles of personal use (liquid for contact lenses), plastic bags, small backpack, and water.

goodmike Says: We are 5 guys and ad an awesome tour from la paz to Uyuni and the Three days! we booked trough a company called "Kings Travel" and they were just great , the rate we paid was 165 U$ each but it was money well spent! at first we had a just excellent guide named Gery, who...
AlbuqRay Says: I have been trying to decide how to answer the question about how to choose a Salar de Uyuni tour company (there are many). Although it is important to have good equipment and facilities, actually I think the key is who you are with. They like to put 6 passengers in a Land...
AlbuqRay Says: As for when to go, I have been in October and April. Both were good. The rainy season is November to March. If the water layer is thin, then its good for photography and no problem getting around. However, if it gets too deep, the surface could morph into an impassable...

Often times the places hardest to get to turn out to be the best and perhaps seem all the better for the effort it takes to get there. The surreal landscape surrounding and encompassing The Salar de...
Uyuni is the jumping off point for the 4WD tours of southern Bolivia. There is a standard 4-day loop to the far south and a less traveled 2-day loop to the northern part of the Salar. Both loop tours...
This surrealistic tour is very popular and many agecies based in San Pedro de Atacama (Chile) and Uyuni offer this 3 days off-road ride over the southern Bolivian Altiplano. I started from San Pedro...
