Exploring Bolivia’s Dramatic Landscapes from La Paz: Salt Flats of Uyuni, Volcano Tunupa |
|
|
Silent and white, the surreal landscape of the Salar’s saltpan will weave its magic around you!
| Overview | |
|
From the dramatic landscape of the Bolivian Highland to Salar de Uyuni’s expansive saltpan, from the volcanic island of Isla Inca Huasi rising from the salar to the 5400-meter high volcano Tunupa, this tour is sure to leave you astounded. The blinding white expanse of salt at Salar de Uyuni, the world’s largest salt flats, is an unforgettable sight. Once covered by water, these 12,000 square kilometers of salt land sometimes reflect the sky, making you feel as though you are driving across clouds! Bolivia continues to amaze with its dramatic contrasts as the volcanic island of Isla Inca Huasi rises from the heart of the salar. Explore the village of Coquesa on the flanks of the 5400-meter high volcano Tunupa. At Tahua stay in a unique hotel, built entirely out of salt blocks! Marvel at Bolivia’s startling landscape and awe-inspiring vistas on this tour.
