Enjoy the various breaks we will take along the way, among them lunch in a restaurant completely built of salt! And also the beautiful island and Cactus Incahuasi.

We'll finish our day in Colcha-K, where we'll spend the night.

Take advantage of the free time on arrival at Uyuni to organize anything you need, such as exchange money, buy essential items, because during the Jeep Tour the trade options are very limited.

After breakfast, prepare for a great day, we continue with our Jeep Tour, this time towards the Avaroa National Park, which is in the Andes Mountains.

Along the way you will see volcanoes and ponds inhabited by beautiful birds, like flamingos. Then we go towards the Siloli Desert which is considered one of the most arid in the world and stands out for its rock formations as the Stone Tree.

During the day, we make a stop for lunch, like Picnic in the desert, which is included in the script.

In the afternoon we will arrive at the Colored Laguna which curiously bears this name due to its reddish and bright water that forms an unforgettable spectacle of nature. Continuing the route, we will arrive at our Huayllajara hospedage, where we will spend the night.

Important: If you wish, you can stay at a luxury Tayka hotels hotel for an additional fee. Ask an agent from Exploration Trips.

Today is the day to wake up early, because we will move towards the Geysers Sol de Mañana, an area of intense volcanic activity, where the geysers are. You will be able to meet towers of hot water and steam that spring from the ground and that can reach great heights, up to 50 meters! We will also visit thermal water lagoons that have therapeutic properties, where it is worth enjoying a wonderful and refreshing bath (optional). Then we will visit the Dali Desert and then we will reach the key point of our day: the Green Lagoon, which is in front of the Lincabur Volcano, thus forming one of the most beautiful views of our entire journey!

Still in the morning, we arrive at the immigration station, where we will say goodbye to our Jeep driver to board the Chilean transport heading for San Pedro do Atacama. The rest of the afternoon will be free.

Important: The Chilean immigration office will deliver the forms to be filled out and after immigration control there will be baggage control and passport stamp for exit and entry, respectively.

Today you will have the morning free. In the afternoon we will go on tour to one of the most incredible spots in all of San Pedro do Atacama: Valle de la Luna, places that would make a beautiful location of science fiction film due to its exotic and mysterious beauty. This tour is done in the afternoon so you can enjoy the magic that is sunset in this region. The tour ends at dusk when the temperature falls in Atacama, we recommend taking a coat.

Breakfast at the hotel and later meet the guide at the hotel to start our tour. The first stop is at the Atacama Salar the largest in Chile and the third largest in the world. Let's take our tour to the Altiplanic lagoons, which are inside the Los Flamencos National Park. The Park has this curious name due to the large number of these birds that inhabit the site. When we get there, we'll see the incredible blue that these ponds are! They are like that, bluish, due to the thaw of volcanoes, which left us this unforgettable view. During the day, we will make a stop for lunch, which is already included.

The return to the hotel will be done in the late afternoon, the rest of the day free!

Important: San Pedro do Atacama is a privileged place to observe the sky and the different constellations, planets, stars and their ancestral meanings that were given by the native indigenous cultures that lived in the desert. For this you can include the Astronomical Tour. Remembering that the observation tour will depend much on weather conditions during your stay.
