I am interested in this tour, but I want to know if the airport transfers both from and to Calama airport are included?

I was interested in this tour but had a few questions. I plan to arrive in San Pedro late on September 9th, would you be able to arrange the airport transfer at this time? I will also need to catch an early flight from Calama on September 12th, would you also be able to arrange airport transfer back to catch a flight at 8/9am? Given that I will be arriving late on the 9th, I was wondering if it would be possible to do the glacier tour on the 11th rather than the 10th since it starts so early in the day? Also, which other tours would you be able to arrange for the second day which is left free?

YES, IT WOULD BE A PRIVATE TRANSFER, WE CAN QUOTE THE EXTRA COST. TRANSFER OUT SERVICE IS NOT INCLUDED BUT WE CAN QUOTE THE EXTRA COST AND ARRANGE IT. BY GLACIERS YOU MEAN GEYSERS, RIGHT? WE CAN CHANGE IT TO THE 11TH, NO PROBLEM. YOU CAN TAKE OPTIONAL TOURS LIKE MOON VALLEY OR ALTIPLANIC LAGOONS. WE CAN QUOTE THE EXTRA COST, IT WOULD BE JUST ONE PASSENGER RIGHT?

is the trip starting Oct 20 available? I notice day 4 doesn't have any activities. Is it possible I extend the tour by doing some optional activities on day 4 just like day 3?

You can take optional tours like Moon Valley or Altiplanic Lagoons. We can quote the extra cost.

Can you explain a bit on what optional tours you have on day 3 and what the costs are?

  Traveler•Written November 2023
  Can you give me a price quote for the private room? It does not matter to me if it is in a hostel or a hotel as long as it is clean and safe. Do you go to the salt flats in Chile? I am a US citizen, so going to Bolivia will cost me an extra $165 for the visa which I do not wish to spend. I've read that part of the salt flat is in Chile. Can I get a tour there?
- Hi Travel ArgentinaOperator•Written November 2023
  Yes, this tour includes geysers tour. Prices for this tour: Backpackers San Pedro Dorm 6: 173, Backpackers San Pedro DBL: 202, Backpackers San Pedro SGL: 314, Hotel 3* Don Raul DBL: 370, Hotel 3* Don Raul SGL: 547

  Would I be joining a group? or would you put me with a group? I do not really understand how this all works. The dbl backpacers price of 202 sounds good to me. Are there star gazing tours, though there may be too much moon on these dates?
- Hi Travel ArgentinaOperator•Written November 2023
  This tour includes accommodation. It's not a group tour but you'll have regular services and in each tour and transfer, you'll be sharing with other passengers.

  Are the tours in English? If not, are they in Spanish? If in Spanish, which ones are in Spanish. Can you pleas send me a tour based on going to the Chilian Salt Flats and the Geysers, and whatever tours/transfer from airport in Calama (if that is included). Where shall I be staying?

  Adrian
  Traveler•Written November 2023
  Can you please send me a detailed 2, 3 or 4 day itinerary for the tour of the Chilean Salt Flats and the geysers? I wish to stay in the Backpackers Hostel with a private room. I'll be arriving in SPDA on Dec 23 and leaving on Dec 28 by plane each way. So my schedule is flexible within those dates. I understand that Christmas falls in this timeline and perhaps you do not have tours then.

  Would you be able to give me an indication of how much the tour would cost including the airport transfers and with an extra tour of the moon valley on the second day? This is just for one passenger, hopefully there are regular tours but I'd be interested to know what the cost would be if it has to be private.

  Extra cost for a private tour to Moon Valley 389 USD. Private Transfer IN or OUT 244 USD.
