WELCOME to BOLIVIA Overland Adventure: Salar de Uyuni, Desert Highlands & Epic Sunsets

In our 5th country on the Panamerican journey, we go from one epic sunset to the next — starting with our very first evening in Bolivia, and culminating with the surreal experience of the Salar de Uyuni at golden hour.

After arriving in Uyuni, we join a guided tour to the world’s largest salt flats — 10,000 km² of dazzling white expanse, where after the rainy season a perfect mirror forms, reflecting mountains, sky, and clouds. Despite not being able to take the Papero on the salt flats, the drive at sunset sure makes for an unforgettable experience.

The adventure continues with a wander through Uyuni’s streets, a night in the Bolivian wilderness at almost 4000m (with of course another jaw-dropping sunset), battling the traffic chaos of Potosí, and finally unwinding in beautiful Sucre — Bolivia’s constitutional capital — where great food, colourful markets, more sunsets, and wonderful new friends make it hard to leave.

We’re Luca and Giulia, overlanding the Americas in our tiny home on wheels, Papero, from Ushuaia all the way to Alaska. This is Episode 36 of our South America adventure — and Bolivia is already stealing our hearts.
