Itinerary

Expand All

Day 1: La Paz - Uyuni, Bolivia

Location: Uyuni

Accommodation: Lodge

Meals Included: Lunch, Dinner

Fly to Uyuni and visit Salt Flats (L/D)

At designed time, pick-up from the hotel and transfer to the airport to take the flight to Uyuni. Today we depart for our first foray on to the Uyuni Salt Flats. We'll be picked up from the airport and the journey begins with a short visit to the famed (and rusting) train cemetery, full of rusting train cars that were once used to transport minerals and people to and from Uyuni. We then continue to the salt-harvesting village of Colchani to see how the locals produce salt. After this (finally!) we will reach the great Uyuni Salt Flats, visiting the bizarre Incahuasi Island that is covered in enormous cacti and from where we get an amazing view of the flats. We will enjoy a beautiful sunset in the middle of the endless expanse of glittering salt and then return to Colchani to overnight in a hotel built from salt bricks!


Day 2: Uyuni, Bolivia

Location: Uyuni

Accommodation: Hostel

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Eduardo Avaroa Andean Fauna Reserve (B/L/D)

Today our adventure continues through the lunar landscapes of the southern altiplano at Eduardo Avaroa Andean Fauna National Reserve. As the country's most visited protected area, the reserve boasts volcanos, deserts, colorful lagoons, and unique Andean wildlife, such as flamingos. Enjoy lunch next to one of the region’s multi-colored lagoons. Then, we will continue to Siloli Desert, where we will witness the wonder of great rock formations thanks to the wind erosion over the years. The tour will finish with a visit to the red-colored Laguna Colorada before heading to your accommodation for a well-earned rest.


Day 3: Uyuni, Bolivia

Location: Uyuni

Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch

Dali Desert, Green Lagoon, Valley of the Stones (B)

Today we continue on to the southern part of Lípez and Eduardo National Park, created to help conserve the region’s flora and fauna. Among other stops, we’ll be able to enjoy geysers and thermal waters and, if you dare, have a soak! Then, we will travel through the (surreal!) Dali Desert and visit the Green Lagoon with Licancabur Volcano as a backdrop. We ́ll have a box lunch en route to Uyuni, passing through the Valley of the Stones, yet another extraordinary geological formation created by wind and sand erosion. We reach Uyuni's hotel for a well-deserved rest.

The Bamba Team really made my journey one of the most memorable experiences of my life! Still so nice and supportive! They handled everything and responded to each question within a few minutes. I wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone. Especially if you want to do a lot of activities and travel to a lot of different places without feeling rushed. They've also helped me with specific issues that weren't covered by the tour, as well as answering general questions. Thank you so much for making my journey so enjoyable! ...more ...less

I only have good words about our trip to Kenya. The entire experience was totally magical and I struggle to say how fantastic it was. We were fortunate enough to have a brilliant vehicle for ourselves, but we had great luck with David for our guide too. He was very knowledgeable, courteous and nice. Thank you for helping to create this fantastic safari experience. I Highly recommend this company. ...more ...less

Bamba Experience has been the best tour guide I've ever had. Every tour has been a thrilling experience. There are so many things to choose from. Bamba has been extremely helpful in providing us with all of the necessary information for our departures and activities! Bamba has made this a simple and enjoyable experience. I'll certainly tell my friends and family about it! Thank you very much, Bamba!! ...more ...less

Feb 20 2020

We organized a trip through Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia on the hop-on, hop-off bus. It made the trip so much simpler for us as first-time travelers because we just had to send an email to arrange the bus, which avoided the hassle of looking for the best price and so on! We also had a number of tours included, they were all amazing and saved us the trouble of trying to find the best offers on our own; it also meant we got to see a lot of stuff we wouldn't have seen otherwise. Overall, it was a fantastic experience that I will strongly suggest and use again! ...more ...less

Our Bamba tour of Vietnam was fantastic. We had a lot of new experiences and all of the help we needed to make this a stress-free vacation. The well-organized accomodation and transportation were excellent. We will certainly use Bamba in the future.

Jun 25 2019

I had booked our Uyuni Salt Flats & Desert Adventure 3D/2N (Uyuni to Atacama) tour via an Australian travel agency, but they had made an error and refused to assist us or take responsibility. This was very difficult for us because we wanted to have a stress-free honeymoon. I contacted Bamba and I asked if we could talk on the phone so they made the improvements to our tour reservation that our travel agent declined to make. The quality of service was exceptional and they generously offered to us a complimentary gift because it was our honeymoon. I can't say enough good things about Bamba. ...more ...less
