TOURS

Stargazing tour: San Pedro de Atacama is renowned for its exceptional stargazing opportunities. The clear desert skies offer an unobstructed view of the cosmos, making it the perfect backdrop for stargazing tour where you get to observe the night sky through telescope.

Moon Valley tour: Discover one of the world’s driest and most hostile zones of the world: the Atacama Desert. This tour will take you to the famous Moon Valley, where we will visit geological formations created by the unique combination of clay and salt. Located inside the Flamencos National Reserve, the worldwide known Moon Valley is a natural sanctuary, set of landscapes of incomparable beauty resembling a fragment of the lunar landscape​. We will walk on the Great Dune, from where we'll be able to see the Andes, Domeyko mountain range and the Salt mountain range. By the ending of the tour we get to see the beautiful dusk and how all the colours change in the desert! This viewpoint is one of the most famous postcards of San Pedro de Atacama, with a great panoramic view of the Salt Mountain Range.

Geysers tour: We will visit one of the main highlights of the Atacama Desert, the Tatio Geysers, and learn about the geothermal area.

During the retreat we practice somatic yoga, which encourages the connection with your body.
