Be picked up from your hotel in Uyuni City at around 10:30 PM. Embark on a scenic drive to Salar de Uyuni, which takes approximately 45 minutes. Upon arrival, be greeted by one of the most breathtaking sights on Earth: a vast expanse of salt flats under an incredibly clear night sky. This location is renowned for its exceptional stargazing opportunities, where you can marvel at countless stars, planets, the Milky Way, and even distant nebulas.

As you stand on the salt crust, take your time to capture stunning photographs of the night sky and soak in the serene beauty surrounding you. The reflective surface of the salt flat can create mesmerizing mirror-like effects when there is a thin layer of water, enhancing your experience as the stars seem to float above and below simultaneously.
