If you opt for the four day tour to Tupiza, then you will go off the beaten track, and visit some small communities. You will see the previous and some of the following:
  • Laguna Celeste - A clear-blue lake colored by magnesium and manganese.
  • Laguna Amarilla - A yellow sulfur lake, some old cave paintings nearby.
  • Ruinas de San Antonio - an abandoned 16th century mining town where prospectors used slave labour. Depending on who you talk to the town was abandoned because either, there was a slave rebellion or, men started to go blind / missing. Regardless an attempt in the 70s to repopulate the town failed and people now live in a town of the same name thats close by but not overlooked by the ominous Volcano Uturuncu (6020m).
