About this activity

The beautiful Uyuni salt flats are the world’s largest salt flat. It is located in the Department of Potosi in Southwest Bolivia at 3.650 meters above sea level.

Some 40.000 years ago, the area was part of Lake Minchin, a giant prehistoric lake. When the lake dried up, it left behind two modern lakes and two major salt deserts: Salar de Coipasa and the larger Salar de Uyuni. The Uyuni Salt Flats are roughly 25 times the size of Bonneville Salt Flats in the United States!

La Isla del Pescado (Fish Island), which is located on the salt flat, is full of giant cactuses and named this way as the ´island´ has the shape of a fish. It is the only sign of life for miles.

Marvel at the Milky Way, the stars, the sunset and the sunrise in a luxury camper in the middle of the Salar de Uyuni.

Enjoy this unique tour, where you can sleep in the middle of Uyuni Salt Flats in a deluxe campervan. You will see a night full of stars and sleep watching the Milky Way in the middle of the Salt Flats
