I've done the Salar de Uyini tour in Bolivia, twice. The first time, I came in from Bolivia and the second time coming from Chile to enter Bolivia. This was from the first tour. If you're into crazy landscapes and just a far gone out adventure, you'd wanna go here.

Have you been to the Salar de Uyuni?
