4 Days Uyuni Salt Flat and Eduardo Avaroa Andean Reserve on Wet Season
Description
Cross into Bolivia to reach the Salar de Uyuni, the largest salt flat on Earth. In the rainy months (December to April) a sheet of water turns the salt into a mirror, and sky and ground blur into one. The route then climbs into the Eduardo Avaroa Reserve: coloured lagoons, steaming geysers, the Siloli desert and the Árbol de Piedra. James's flamingos nest at Laguna Colorada. A private 4WD expedition that starts and ends in San Pedro de Atacama, with a local guide, all meals and three nights of the best lodging.
