Luxury Adventure at Bolivia's Uyuni Salt Flats
Description
This is a one-of-a-kind Bolivian experience—crafted in collaboration with La Paz’s most visionary chefs, sommeliers, artists, and cultural leaders to create unforgettable gastronomic and artistic encounters in South America’s highest capital, affectionately known as La Ciudad del Cielo (The City of the Sky). Its people are warm, creative, and deeply proud of their heritage, which you'll feel in every flavor and story shared. From there, we journey to the mystical Lake Titicaca—the birthplace of the Inca civilization—where the sacred islands of the Sun and Moon rise from the deep blue waters like ancient guardians. The adventure culminates in one of the most photogenic places on Earth: the Uyuni Salt Flats, where you’ll sleep in stylish Airstream campers, enjoy starlit BBQs under the Milky Way, and explore otherworldly reflections on private 4x4 excursions—perfectly timed with the new moon for the most dramatic skies.

Upon arrival in Copacabana, you’ll board a private boat and set sail across the shimmering waters to Isla del Sol, the mythical birthplace of the Inca civilization.
On the island, you’ll visit the Sacred Rock (La Roca Sagrada), believed to be the site where the sun god Inti created Manco Cápac and Mama Ocllo, the first Inca rulers. Nearby are the Chincana Ruins, a labyrinthine complex that may have served as a ceremonial or pilgrimage site, offering a glimpse into ancient Andean beliefs.
Following the visit, enjoy an authentic Apthapi lunch, a traditional communal meal prepared with local ingredients like potatoes, corn, oca, cheese, and trout, beautifully laid out for sharing, accompanied by herbal teas from native plants.
In the afternoon, a short scenic hike leads you to your accommodation for the night: Ecolodge La Estancia, perched on a terraced hillside with panoramic views of the lake, Cordillera Real, and an unforgettable sunset.
