Otherworldly, personalized trip - unforgettable memories. - Wow they, Lily (guide) and Poli (driver), really made this trip so unbelievably amazing and wonderful. I originally booked through Ruta Verde, but it seems the reservation was sub-contracted to Mundicontact Expeditions. Lily and Poli were waiting for us when the overnight bus from La Paz arrived at 7a. They immediately brought us to a restaurant for breakfast, said they would be back at 9a because they had things to finalize including getting gas. Tip to future travelers - don't just bring only your phone and cash into the restuarant, bring your clothes and toiletries. My friends and I left our backpacks in the vehicle and immediately regretted it. We could have freshened up, brush our teeth, etc. It was a long 2 hours, and we actually were a bit worried about how the day would go at this point. But believe me, just TRUST THE PROCESS. If you have nothing else to do, walk around the town - there are stores within a block or two you can peruse. Lily and Poli came back right on time. Timing was amazing and according to the itinerary that was provided and agreed upon. We spent enough time at each location for Lily to provide us the history, explanations, answer our questions, AND take some amazing photos and videos. Someone should hire Lily to be their Director of Marketing or take control of their social media. This girl took the most amazing pictures and videos for my friends and me; we cannot believe what we have to look at to remember our experience. She suggested so many poses and videos - we trusted her and the results were spectacular. Salar de Uyuni is already beautiful, the lagoons are all already naturally beautiful - but the pictures and videos Lily took just elevated everything. Even though we visited during the dry months, Lily and Poli still took us to an area where there was water on the ground so that we could also experience a little bit of the mirror effect. Mundicontact provided the rainboots and also had an amazing setup for us to watch the sun set (wine and snacks, tables, chairs included!). Meals (lunches) were nutritious - a protein, potatoes (of course), vegetables, another carb, and drinks. Homemade and delicious. The meal setup in the middle of the Solar was especially beautiful and unforgettable. We were a little family for that short weekend - we laughed with one another, they played music we liked and they also shared music they liked, we shared personal stories, we shared snacks, they tried to accommodate all of our requests - going over and above the minimum (bringing us to an ATM when we needed it, showing us where we could eat dinner when we got dropped off at the bus station, trying to get us to the markets for the specific goods we were looking for, etc). The trip was very cozy, personal, punctual, and fulfilling!
