  Amazing tour and well worth your time! Many locals I spoke to shared that it’s a great way to spend your time in San Pedro and has a beautiful view at the top (they were correct!!). There’s no one better to do this hike with than Jorge. He was so nice and continuously checked in on how we were feeling. He gave us tips on acclimating better, and ensured we all made it to the top of the volcano! Even before the hike we got an extensive prep list for gear, and he was still prepared with extra gear if we needed it during the hike (we did!! His buff and extra warm gloves saved me!).

  I joined the Cerro Toco tour on March 21, 2026, and it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The preparation was excellent — one guide came to my hotel beforehand to explain the ascent and answer all my questions, especially about the altitude. This really helped ease any concerns, and everything turned out exactly as described. The same guide also accompanied the tour, which made the whole experience feel very personal and well-organized. During the hike, I felt safe and well looked after at all times. Everything was perfectly arranged from start to finish. If I come back to San Pedro de Atacama in the next 2 years, I will definitely book another tour with them. Highly recommended!

First I contacted via whatsapp and received very good service. Then we set the date and I paid half the price. On the week of the trail they contacted us to make a meeting to better know the itinerary and to check our equipment, who made the meeting with us was Jorge who would also be our guide on the day. Very friendly, professional and fun person. I ended up needing a hat and another booth and my handcuffs husband, they borrowed it all. On the day we were picked up at the hotel at the agreed time as well as the rest of the group. At the base we receive a bag of trail food (well-thought for altitude things that should give energy and be fast digestible, i.e. goodies!), water and walking sticks. We started the ascension which is not difficult but by altitude ends up being challenging, with the body telling us not to continue Jorge was essential to animate us, remind us to walk and breathe the right way and check how we were feeling. In case of any emergency he had radio communication. The whole group reached the summit, tired yes, but accomplished! I highly recommend Quima, initial care, follow-up and execution score 10, plus fair price.

  My son and I really enjoyed our hike up Cerro Toco with Jorge and we felt a sense of accomplishment! Jorge reached out a few days before and we met up so he could review our gear to make sure we had proper clothing and footwear, to let us know what to expect, what to bring in our packs and to go over safety and other details. We didn't have windbreakers, so he brought one for each of us just in case we needed them, but the weather ended up being very nice. We took it slow hiking up and the views at the top were spectacular!

  Excellent excursion. The very friendly Fran picked us up from the hotel. It takes 1 hour by car to reach the start of the hike. Fran puts us at ease with altitude and teaches us to breathe well. And at the end, the reward and the summit of the volcano. Thank you again.

• A Perfectly Guided Cerro Toco Summit

  Had an amazing hike up Cerro Toco with Jorge and Karla. We were a small group of just three hikers plus the two guides, which made the whole experience feel very personal. They took great care to keep everyone together, checked in regularly, and made sure we felt safe the entire time. Weather conditions were partly kinda rough but Jorge and Karla were constantly well aware of the situation and I always felt well looked after and safe — highly recommended.

• Climbing to the volcano cerro toco

  Without a doubt, one of the best experiences of life. The staff is very prepared and provides support before the activity going to the lodging to check if the clothes and footwear are suitable, this was a big difference. During the rise of the volcano the rhythm is respected and the view from above is sensational. It was me and my fiancée. We recommend!
