Chile · MORNING
Chile is long and your holiday is not, so this is the short version: 15 morning tours, each with a price, a traveller verdict and the detail that decides it.
Review of Rapa Nui’s two-day island tour and Tongariki sunrise, with moai sites, cave walks, costs, timing, guides, and practical tips.
“This tour visited all the most important sites and even more. Our guide was local native and extremely knowledgeable and experienced.”
Soar over the Atacama at sunrise, then enjoy a local breakfast and Atacama stories on this small-group balloon ride from San Pedro.
“One of the best experience ever. From the morning breakfast to getting into the history of the air balloon. The actual experience up in the area was over 1 hour and travelled 15km… was breathtaking to see the sunrise over the desert. The post landing champagne and cheese was perfect ending.”
Review of Rapa Nui’s two full-day tours and Tongariki sunrise, with local guides, Moai sites, practical tips, costs, and honest drawbacks.
“Very happy with all aspects of the tour - having different guides on each day allowed me to get different perspectives / theories on the island's history for stuff that has no written record. Good communication throughout, only issues were caused by customers who hadn't followed the advice to bring drinks and snacks.”
Watch sunrise behind Tongariki’s 15 moai with a private native guide, hotel pickup, photo tips, and flexible cancellation on Rapa Nui.
“L’esperienza è sicuramente affascinante, noi abbiamo avuto la sfortuna di trovare pioggia e siamo rimasti sul sito meno del previsto però anche con un meteo avverso abbiamo fatto delle foto suggestive. Per fare foto suggerisco di piazzarsi un pochino lontani dai Moai e in posizione sopraelevata sul lato destro del sito (direzione guardando il mare)”
Watch the sunrise behind Easter Island’s 15 moai at Ahu Tongariki, with early transport from Hanga Roa and a small shared group.
“A must do experience for watching the sunrise. You do not need a private tour as everyone watches from the same spot. Do not expect any explanation from the driver as you are booking for transportation only. The driver also communicated in Spanish via WhatsApp so be prepared to use Spanish.”
Watch sunrise behind 15 Moai at Ahu Tongariki with private transport and a local guide. Practical tips on weather, costs, timing, and value.
“Regarding the activity, if the weather is there, which has not been the case today, beautiful photos in perspective. Regarding the guide who had to animate the activity in French, it was not the case, did not speak French, not talkative at all, served us transport!!!Auto-translated”
Watch dawn light the fifteen moai at Ahu Tongariki on a private Rapa Nui tour with coffee, tea, transport, and a local guide.
“Alberto was an amazing guide. Our stargazing tour was cancelled due to the weather but upon hearing this, Alberto stopped so we were able to see sometime seeing the stars. It was amazing and we were in awe of seeing the night sky. Alberto told us some great places to take pictures at Tongariki and gave us as much time as we wanted to walk around a photograph the site after most people left. He also helped take photographs for us as additional moais. He even went out of his way to help us try to purchase some things we were having trouble finding. Seeing the sunrise at this site…”
See El Tatio at dawn, enjoy breakfast above 4,200 meters, spot Andean birds, and visit Machuca on an eight-hour Atacama tour.
“Guide knew a lot to tell and made sure we could see everything clearly.”
Review the Tatio Geysers sunrise tour from San Pedro, with cold-weather tips, Machuca village, Putana wetlands, timing, and value advice.
“Since the WhatsApp assistance of consultant Beth has already made us realize that the experience would be incredible, we had support every day of the trip, any questions or concerns before and during the trip were understood and answered in a polite and attentive way. We stayed in Chile for 9 days, being 4 in Santiago and 5 in Atacama, all the booked tours were amazing, not only for the breathtaking landscape but also for the super attentive and fun guides, always answering questions about the locations and demonstrating an absurd knowledge, the meals that were included in the tours were delicious. It can be seen that they really care…”
Watch dawn light reveal Ahu Tongariki’s moai on a private Easter Island tour with hotel pickup, coffee, and expert Rapa Nui insight.
“This tour was exceptional. I enjoyed sitting under the stars in the complete blackness for about 30 minutes prior to sunrise. Watching the Moai appear with the light was magical. I enjoyed the return ride and scenery. The guide was very knowledgeable and made this one of my best ever travel experiences.”
Review of Santiago’s Embalse El Yeso tour, with mountain views, coffee, San José de Maipo, chocolate, breakfast, and hotel pickup.
“The place is stunning, a beautiful landscape in the middle of the mountains, pure air and total disconnection. The coordination for hotel pickup was very good and our guide, Sebastian, communicated with us very kindly to inform us every detail from the day before. Everything flowed in the best way. During the tour, Sebastian integrated the group very well and his explanations about what we were seeing were excellent. You could tell he has a lot of experience and loves what he does. He and Ramon, the mobility driver were very professional and friendly throughout. What the company offers in the package, is just what we visit. Even the picnic…”
Review of the El Tatio Geysers sunrise tour from San Pedro, with high-altitude scenery, breakfast, guides, costs, and practical tips.
Watch sunrise behind 15 moai at Ahu Tongariki on a small-group tour from Hanga Roa, with hotel pickup and practical advice on costs and timing.
“The Ahu Tongariki is stunning and worth visiting. The best view is actually later in the day when the sun lights up the Moai faces, but sunrise is beautiful, too. The listing in Viator claims the tour is 4 hours and includes breakfast, but this is not true. We were picked up at the hotel on time (6:00am). On the drive, our guide told us some history of the Rapa Nui people, although it was difficult to hear (a combination of a very loud car/road noise plus his slurred speech). When we arrived at Ahu Tongariki, he took us to a good spot for viewing the sunrise, and then walked…”
Climb toward Osorno’s glacier before sunrise, watch Andes light over Lake Llanquihue, and trek with a small expert-led group.
“Thank you to guide Karla for all your attention and excellent technical knowledge of mountaineering and for offering safety in the climb to the glacier of the Volcano Osorno. Transport from the hotel efficiently and communication of the details of the tour via message, so that I felt well informed. I climbed up to the glacier, so there was the desire to return to Puerto Varas and climb again to the Topo do Osorno. Incredible tour for those who want more adventure than just climbing a cable car like an ordinary tourist. I recommend.Auto-translated”
Ride through woods and wetlands to Mount Terevaka, with beginner-friendly horses, small groups, island views, and hotel transfers.
“Sehr gut Organisiert Alice und ihr Mann haben eine Wunderschöne Farm wo die Pferde friedlich leben. Es hat alles wunderbar geklappt, Abholung und Ausritt waren super. Sichere Pferde auch für Anfänger geeignet.”
The desert, the vineyards, the lakes and the ice, and the best day in each.
