Two Days Across Bolivia’s Extraordinary Salt Desert
A two-day adventure across the Salar de Uyuni offers travelers an unforgettable journey through one of the world’s most spectacular natural landscapes. The experience begins at the iconic Train Cemetery, where abandoned locomotives stand as striking reminders of Bolivia’s mining history. From there, the route continues to the village of Colchani, where visitors can observe traditional salt extraction techniques and browse locally crafted salt handicrafts before venturing into the endless white expanse of the world’s largest salt flat.
The first day showcases the surreal beauty of the Salar de Uyuni with stops at fascinating attractions including salt sculptures, the bubbling Ojos de Sal, the Dakar Monument, and the colorful Plaza de las Banderas. Travelers also visit the original Salt Hotel, now preserved as a museum built entirely from salt blocks. A highlight of the journey is Isla Incahuasi, a volcanic island covered with towering giant cacti, where panoramic views stretch across the seemingly endless salt desert before the day concludes with a spectacular sunset and an overnight stay near the Salar.
On the second day, the adventure shifts to the remote highlands surrounding Tomave. Visitors explore the peaceful village and its historic colonial church before relaxing in natural hot springs set against dramatic mountain scenery. The route continues to a series of breathtaking high-altitude lagoons, where brilliant shades of green, blue, and turquoise create an extraordinary contrast with the rugged desert landscape, offering countless opportunities for photography and quiet appreciation of nature.
As the journey comes to an end, travelers make their way back to Uyuni, carrying unforgettable memories of Bolivia’s remarkable landscapes, unique cultural heritage, and extraordinary natural wonders. From the endless white plains of the Salar to the tranquil beauty of the highland lagoons, this two-day expedition delivers an immersive experience through one of the planet’s most awe-inspiring destinations before drop-off at the bus terminal or the city center.

Customer Reviews
Objective discrepancy between the service contracted and the service delivered The Salar de Uyuni is an exceptional experience of very high touristic value. This review does not concern the destination or the itinerary, which are remarkable, but focuses exclusively on the service provided by Uyuni Tours Bolivia, compared to what was contractually agreed in writing. Following direct contact and written confirmation via WhatsApp, we contracted a 3-day / 2-night higher-end tour (USD 220 per person), including premium vehicles, private rooms with private bathrooms, and a differentiated service compared to standard or budget tours. Without any prior notice, already inside the vehicle at the start of the tour, it became apparent that the group consisted of passengers from multiple agencies, the guide/driver was not part of Uyuni Tours Bolivia, the vehicle did not correspond to the advertised premium models, and accommodation and meals were of a basic standard. It was confirmed on site that other passengers under objectively identical conditions paid approximately €100 less per person. Additionally, the return transfer to the bus station, which was included in the proposal, was not provided. A written and documented complaint was sent after the tour; no response was received. This review is factual and intended solely to inform future travelers, based on verifiable elements.
I had a great experience with uyuni tours! The communication was really fast and easy, I got picked up from the bus terminal and Richard explained everything I have to know. I wished to be in a group of internationals and that’s what I got :) Our driver umbeto was a really nice and funny guy and we felt safe throughout the whole trip. The accommodation for the 2 night were great and even had hot showers. I lost my iPad before the trip and Richard even helped me getting it back
I originally booked a 3D2N Salt Flats Tour with transfer to San Pedro with Uyuni Tours, however this had to be shortened to 2D1N with an extra night in Uyuni due to poor weather conditions at the original land border crossing. The team was swift to provide alternatives and arrange for transportation so we could get back on our original itinerary without incurring significant further costs, our guide was Alex and he’s awesome. Extremely proficient in English, he was able to explain us everything the entire trip while also ensuring safety and that we get to the popular spots at the best time! While weather wasn’t the best on the lagoons, we were able to enjoy a significantly smoother journey in dry season as the roads were clearer. Salt Hotel was simple but good, we had an electric heater, hot water, and electricity throughout the entire night. Alex also gave us an unexpected stargazing tour just outside the Salt Hotel as the skies were really clear that night. Highly recommend this tour especially for English speakers! Thanks ALEX & UYUNI TOURS for the wonderful experience.
