Review of San Pedro’s Tatio Geysers and Moon Valley saver pack, with sunrise steam, desert sunset, altitude advice, timing, and value tips.

“Tour was great in both the tatio geysers and moon valley. The only reason we rated it a 4 is at the tatio geysers is the guide didn’t name a meeting place or time if anyone gets lost. One person was late coming back and the guide actually started to leave and stopped due to seeing the person at the last second… As for the moon valley we had a different guide and he named meeting spots and times etc, felt much more comfortable and that part was a 5/5. Other than that both tour guides were high energy and gave great tours. I’d still recommend, I would just highlight…”

Review of San Pedro de Atacama’s Valle de la Luna tour, with sunset cocktail, guide, costs, walking demands, and practical tips.

“If you expect to learn about the geography, minerals, and how earthquakes affect this valley, or if you’re looking for a basic guided tour, do not book this one. The guide had zero information about any of these topics. The hotel pickup was a disaster. They asked me to wait at another hotel, which I did, but the lady there told me I wasn’t on the list. She was very strict about not checking, closed the doors, and only after our discussion did she finally check—and saw my name. Although the tour was advertised in English, it was mainly in Spanish. The guide only gave a very quick summary in…”

Review of the Valle de la Luna sunset tour from San Pedro de Atacama, with practical advice on price, timing, stops, transport, and value.

“We bought the tours with the Full Tour to the Atacama (Valle de la Luna, Thermas de Puritama, Laguna Cejar, Roja Piedras and Lagunas Altiplánicas and Geysers del Tatio). I want to highlight the care of Carolina, who helped us too much in the programming. We closed with the Full Tour, in large part, because of the assistance received for the development of the roadmap with the best use of time and correct acclimatation (we had no problems with respect to altitude).”
