Salar de Uyuni Stargazing Tour
Salar de Uyuni Stargazing Tour
We'll pick you up at your hotel and drive in a 4x4 vehicle to the Salar de Uyuni, one of the most fascinating places in Bolivia. As we drive, we'll be treated to a colorful sky thanks to the sunrise or sunset flooding the landscape in front of us. Get ready for a celestial adventure!
Once we reach the salt flat, we'll walk around with the guide in search of the best places to admire the star-filled sky. This area is considered one of the clearest of light pollution on the planet, so we'll see the Milky Way perfectly. It will be magical!
During the experience, you'll learn to recognize the main constellations and the secrets of the Andean cosmovision. We'll admire the different celestial bodies, and we're sure you'll be impressed with the reflections they leave in the rivers of salt in this unique Bolivian region.
With an incredible sky imprinted in our memory, we'll return to the vehicle and make our way back to Uyuni. There, we'll drop you off at your hotel anywhere between 3 to 5 hours after pickup.
