Description

Your tour starts with hotel pickup by van before dawn (yep, that's early!) from San Pedro de Atacama. Hotel pickup is included from the hotels located near the San Pedro de Atacama urban zone. We will drive north of San Pedro de Atacama to El Tatio, an approximate 1.5- to 2-hour trip.
The El Tatio Geyser Field stands just over 14,000 feet above sea level in the Andes Mountains of northern Chile. You'll travel up windy scenic mountain roads surrounded by snow-covered active and dormant volcanic peaks.
Your arrival at the geyser field coincides with the rising sun, which gives the geysers their most spectacular appearance. In the cold early morning air, each geyser is topped with a white column of steam that disappears when the temperature warms up. You have about two hours to walk around the field and take pictures. Then enjoy a light breakfast that typically includes a ham and cheese sandwich, biscuit, fruit, juice, tea and coffee.
On our return trip we will visit the Machuca bofedales, a slow-flowing body of water that is a niche for flora and fauna, where we will see various birds, including flamingos, and vicuñas. The bofedal owes its name to Machuca, an Atacameño town we will see on the way, with barely twenty houses made of adobe, straw and cactus wood. We will also visit the Putana bog, a nesting place for migratory birds, and a viewpoint over the plateau, the mountain ranges and the volcanoes.
Finally, drive back to San Pedro de Atacama, where the tour ends with drop-off at the city center around midday. This trip back takes approximately 3 hours.

Worth every penny

Just brilliant. Getting to San Pedro de Atacama was breathtaking. I have never seen anything like San Pedro de Atacama. The guide made the difference, you could tell they love the job. The one downside was the wait at the start, we left about twenty minutes late. Thank you for a great day out.

Exatamente o que procurávamos. O transporte ida e volta nos hotéis vale por si só. A explicação em San Pedro de Atacama nos deixou pensando. O ritmo era confortável, nem corrido nem chato. Algumas paradas precisam de mais sombra para esperar. Recomendo sem pensar.

Increíble día

Se pasó volando y nos quedamos con ganas de más. El guía hizo la diferencia, se le notaba que le gusta lo que hace. Solo por San Pedro de Atacama vale la pena el paseo. Para lo que incluye, el precio es más que razonable. Una de las paradas estaba cerrada ese día y no lo avisaron. Ojalá todos los tours fueran así.

Uma experiência linda

Impecável, não tenho nenhuma ressalva. Dá para ver tudo com calma se for com tempo. Avisaram de uma mudança de horário com bastante antecedência. Faltou água disponível, principalmente com aquele calor. Recomendaria a qualquer um que visite San Pedro de Atacama.

Estuvo bueno, con altibajos. Volvimos a San Pedro de Atacama al día siguiente por nuestra cuenta. Ideal para tener un panorama general y después volver a lo que más te gustó. Pagamos bastante menos que otras opciones y la experiencia fue igual de buena. Faltaba un mapa impreso, todo dependía del celular. Vale la pena, sabiendo lo anterior.

Nos sorprendió para bien. Lo de desayuno tradicional estuvo muy bien pensado. El guía respondió hasta las preguntas más raras con datos precisos. Si están por San Pedro de Atacama, no se lo pierdan.
