My flight tickets had been sent to me well ahead of time. My driver met me at the hotel and took me to the airport, a driver was waiting for me in Uyuni, and the tour was waiting for me to get started. The tour covered everything in the itinerary and we had perfect conditions for the Salt Flats. We stayed in hostels and the one was as bare minimum as you could get. No electricity, no running water, no wifi but they did have a lovely hot spring to soak in. Nothing wrong with going off the grid although the workers at that hostel were horrible and angry and very negative towards us (it was very odd).Show more
