The trip was amazing. It’s a short drive from Uyuni. The town looks awesome, it looks like a movie set. The train cars from the Butch Cassidy and Sundance kid shootout are even here! Ton of history here. Fascinating stories with an unbelievable guide. Couldn’t recommend this tour enough. We actually enjoyed it more than the salt flats!
