Highest Point on the Uyuni Tour – Geysers at over 5,000 meters

 So what’s it like? Imagine you have a slight case of the flu and you’re a bit hung over and your stomach feels like you drank the local water from the tap… mix it all together and that’s about what altitude sickness feels like. Sounds fun, huh?

Now don’t let me scare your away from visiting Bolivia and don’t you dare miss an Uyuni tour because you’re worried about getting a bit sick. Altitude sickness sucks but being in the incredible scenery of Southwestern Bolivia will make up for it; I promise.

If you want to limit your chances of getting sick though, there are a few things you can do.
