A tour through the salt flats and desert are an indescribable experience (and probably the only reason for stopping by in Uyuni town). Creative Tours organize high-quality shared tours with accommodation in the Tayka hotels. The tours can go from Uyuni to Uyuni but also from Uyuni to e.g. San Pedro de Atacama in Chile. Meals are included as well as a small package of snacks
and some drinks.
A sample tour will mostly include: the train cemetery, the cacti island Incahuasi, the hill called Catedral, the Cueva Chiquini cave, Arbol de Piedra rock formation, Geysir fields
and the famous lagoons.
Look for local animals like Llamas, Vicuñas, Viscachas, and of course Flamingos.
