The beautiful Uyuni salt flats are the world’s largest salt flat. It is located in the Department of Potosi in Southwest Bolivia at 3.650 meters above sea level. Some 40.000 years ago, the area was part of Lake Minchin, a giant prehistoric lake. When the lake dried up, it left behind two modern lakes, Poopó and Uru Uru, and two major salt deserts: Salar de Coipasa and the larger Salar de Uyuni. The Uyuni Salt Flats are roughly 25 times the size of Bonneville Salt Flats in the United States! La Isla del Pescado (Fish Island), which is located on the salt flat, is full of giant cactuses and named this way as the ´island´ has the shape of a fish. It is the only sign of life for miles. Discover the Salar de Uyuni and the lagoons in a 2-Day tour from San Pedro de Atacama. Visit the Eduardo Avaroa National Reserve, the Green Lagoon, and the Red Lagoon.

It is a Geological and Cultural Tour, which connects you with the land and its culture, its geology at its best, which leads you to understand the land and its formation.

Dawn Between Vapors: Discover the Magic of Tatio Geysers Experience one of the most striking experiences in northern Chile with an excursion to the geothermal field of El Tatio, the third largest in the world and one of the most impressive natural treasures of the Andean highlands. Located more than 4,200 meters above sea level, this place offers a unique natural spectacle that begins before dawn, when the combination of extreme cold and volcanic activity results in plumes of steam emerging from the earth like ancestral gasps. Upon arrival, you will find dozens of boiling geysers, thermal pools and fumaroles that transform the landscape into a surreal setting, surrounded by snow-capped mountains and endless skies. The early departure has a purpose: it is at dawn that the contrast in temperature creates the largest and most dramatic plumes of steam, offering a visual spectacle that looks like it was taken from another planet.

Immerse yourself in the colors and ancient history of the Rainbow Valley Step into a fascinating corner of the Atacama Desert, where geology, history and culture intertwine in a truly unique landscape. This experience invites you to explore the Rainbow Valley, a place that seems to have been lifted from a dream, where mountains and rock formations sport a natural palette of colors that vary between green, red, ochre, white and violet, a product of the rich mineral composition of the terrain. Before arriving at the valley, we will stop at Yerbas Buenas, an archaeological site of great value for the Atacameño culture, where you can admire ancient petroglyphs carved into the rock by the civilizations that inhabited these lands thousands of years ago. These engravings are silent testimony to a profound worldview, in which human beings lived in harmony with the desert and its mysteries.

This is a 4 day program, ideal minimum stay to enjoy the region. The emblematic Valley of the Moon receives them the first day; the Rainbow Valley shows us another color of the desert; and from the second day we enter the vast Andean Altiplano that gives us some of the innumerable postcards that this territory offers. All the tours have their "particular touch": avoid the schedules of greater flow of tourists; tour other sectors less visited and of great value; share a picnic surrounded by nature; or simply share moments of conversation and silence while touring San Pedro de Atacama and its surroundings. I see tourism as an art that requires dedication in details and elegance in its execution; each program is special and each excursion an opportunity to meet with the enjoyment of life and its beauty. That's why I enjoy organizing and guiding private programs, fostering an intimate and authentic encounter with the environment.
