Fly from La Paz to Uyuni and back in one day. Full day salt flats tour included. Private 4WD, English guide, round-trip flights. Book now.
Most travelers take an overnight bus to reach Uyuni from La Paz — a journey of 8 to 10 hours each way. This tour changes that entirely. The Bolivian White Treasure Express puts you on a morning flight from La Paz, has you standing on the Salar de Uyuni by mid-morning, and returns you to La Paz by evening. In a single day, you experience the full beauty of the world’s largest salt flat — the train graveyard, Colchani village, the vast white expanse, Isla Incahuasi — without losing a night to bus travel. It is the most efficient way to experience one of Bolivia’s greatest natural wonders.
