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.

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 is why I only dedicate myself to organizing and guiding private programs, fostering an intimate and authentic encounter with the environment. This is a short, three-day excursion program, with some classic tour options such as Valle de la Luna and Tatio Geysers and other less visited ones that are really worth knowing and including. All the tours have their "particular touch": avoid the schedules of greater flow of tourists; tour other sectors less visited and of great tourist value; share a picnic surrounded by wonderful landscapes; or simply share good moments of conversation and silence while touring San Pedro de Atacama and its surroundings. If that is what you are looking for in a trip, do not hesitate to contact me.

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.
