You step out of the transfer van at the edge of a white horizon and the salt flat refuses to behave like any other landscape — it throws light back at you in a way that makes distances and scale play tricks.

Yes—Salar de Uyuni and Uyuni sit around 3,600–3,700 m; travelers should acclimatize, drink water, and consult a doctor if they have heart or respiratory conditions.
This private tour includes lunch, snacks, hot drinks and entrance to listed sites, but confirm specifics with the operator before booking.
Some operators provide infant seats and wheelchair‑accessible transport, but access around salt mounds and Isla Incahuasi involves uneven ground—check availability and mobility needs in advance.
The Salar occupies the bed of prehistoric Lake Minchin; in the late 19th century Uyuni was a mining rail hub, leaving behind the Train Cemetery near town.
