Atacama Desert Tours & Trips
Imagine yourself gazing up at the night sky in the Atacama Desert, where the stars, nebulae, and galaxies are brilliantly visible, a result of some of the clearest skies on the planet. Moon Valley, with its distinctive salt formations and the reddish landscape that shifts hues at sunset, feels otherworldly. A visit to the Tatio Geysers at dawn offers a spectacular show of steam plumes erupting from the ground as the sun begins to climb.

Overall experience was good--the tours were excellent, as were all the guides. All was well-organized and communicated well. Only downside is I was a solo traveler, and more often than not the only English speaker, which was very isolating.
