    Beautiful and peaceful scenery. A must see when visiting San Pedro de Atacama. Guide provided enough information regarding the places we visited. Meals provided were plenty and tasty. Would highly recommend this excursion and tour company to others.

    Good tour, organization needs improvement

    Lydia_H, Sep 2024
    The tour stopped in fantastic places and was great, as were the guide (Pablo) and the driver. The star rating is for the booking agency - we received no communication from them until I chased them, and even then the responses were mono-syllabic and unhelpful. Unlike other tour operators in town who are well organized and share tickets and pickup details via WhatsApp the day before, this company couldn’t give me details on the pickup time and location. It wasn’t until the morning of the pickup that they messaged to say that the van had broken down. Luckily, they were able to get a replacement, so even though the tour started an hour late but we still managed to squeeze everything in. Viator was useless as well - as all tours have to be booked at most by the day before, finding an alternative would have been a nightmare and we would have wasted an entire day because of this. I highly recommend going into town and booking the tours directly with the operators there, as they’re at least guaranteed to happen.

    Great experience

    Felipe and Hugo (the Boss) are a great team, we had lots of fun and learned a lot about the wildlife and landscape

    Highlight of our trip

    Abbey_G, Jun 2023
    This was such an incredible day. Our guide Natalia was fantastic and did a great job at spanish and english explanations. The breakfast and lunch included were so delicious and in such beautiful spots. The beauty of the places we visited was beyond. The highlight of our trip. We visited all of the key areas for the perfect amount of time and although it's a full day, you enjoy every minute. Communication could have been better. I had to find the WhatsApp number since I hadn't heard by late afternoon the day before despite the early pick up. They may have contacted me later on but it did make me worry as a planner. Once we connected though, all good!

    Piedras Roja is a must ,...

    One of the most impressive places that I have seen. The tour company was very good at communicating.

    Highly recommend tour and tour company!

    Alejando, the owner of the tour company was so helpful and beyond just questions about the tour. The tour itself was amazing. Absolutely spectacular scenery. And at the end of the day seeing a fox was a special highlight.
