Salar de Uyuni

The tour through the Salar de Uyuni and the desert (South-West Bolivia, up to 5000m)

Here just a few impressions of the incredible and bizarre landscape of the desert and the salt plains in Bolivia. We did a three day tour in a jeep with one American and three Brits joining our group. Enjoy!

Llamas, the brothers of the Alpacas, which taste much better!
