5.00Excellent tour with Brandon from PUKARUMI yesterday with my adult son. Good communication from outset. Fabulous breakfast and lunch included in the tour. There didn’t seem to be a question Brandon could not answer, huge breadth of knowledge! Highly recommend this day tour . We have two more half day tours booked with the same agency.
GREAT GUIDE AND WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!

5.00The experience was wonderful, thanks from now on to the dear guide, nicknamed affectionately by the Brazilians as "chicão" for being so welcoming and possessing rich information about the locations and best points for photos. If possible, I would do all the tours with him as a guide!
The best tour of the trip

5.00The most beautiful and impactful experience of the whole trip. This tour cannot stay out of your planning. Scenarios that look like painting, we had a complete experience with the guide Isidora, who made all the difference in our tour, with his attention, good mood and knowledge of all the places and the culture of Atacama. The tour offers breakfast and lunch, and both were quite pleased.

5.00Great day out. Laguna Chaxa was stunning, there was no wind so we had a beautiful mirror effect with the flamingoes. Breakfast was delicious with creamy scrambled eggs (best scrambled eggs I’ve had in 3 months in South America), smashed avocado, fresh bread, fruit, coffee (and meat and cheese but I didn’t try these). The next two lagoons were also stunning. Piedras rojas was beautiful, with a very easy mostly flat 20min walk to/from the view point (my 68 year old mum managed fine). Only downside was we only got 20minutes there which felt tight with standing in line for a photo on the iconic rock. Very tasty lunch with chicken, rice and salad. Thanks to Victoria, our guide, for the interesting day. Thanks to Brian the driver for both his safe driving and the delicious scrambled eggs.
Truly Amazing Experience in Atacama

5.00Me and my girlfriend truly loved the experience! The tour was well organized since the day before, with instructions and everything; the pick-up hour was on time; and the food was excelent (both breakfest and lunch). The scenery is truly breathtaking, it seems that we are in another planet! Hard to describe what an amazing experience it was. But beyond the landscape, what made our journey so special was our tour guide George and our tour driver Julio. Such wonderfull people! George had so much knowledge to share with us regarding every aspect of the Atacama Desert! It was amazing talking and listening to him! And Julio, probably one of best drivers in the city! We felt really safe and had a lot of fun during all the drives! We just have a lot to thank! We truly recommend for everyone the tour and our guide and driver! Best regards from Brazil!
Amazing sites!

5.00This is the most incredible place I have visited! A must see in the Atacama. The tour was very well organized and the guides were great.
We had problems with the weather, but the guide George and the agency turned the tragedy into an incredible experience. RECOM

5.00We had problems because of the bad weather, the park of red stones and highland lagoons did not open. Luckily we had the guide George with us, managed to turn the tragedy into an incredible walk, took us to a secret place in the middle of the desert, like an oasis, that I had not even found any walk to this place, as if it was a secret place. Congratulations to guide George, turned the tragedy into a magnificent walk. And congratulate the agency that in the face of the downtime promptly refunded us a fair amount for the tour we had. I am extremely satisfied with the guide George, the agency and the tour, even having missed one of the most beautiful points of the atacama. Thank you all very much.
Great Tour but Jam-Packed !

4.00It was a pretty great tour! Victoria was an amazing guide and really taught us a lot about each area we visited. The schedule was packed which meant it felt a little rushed, especially at Piedras Rojas. That is NOT the fault of the guides, but more about the nature of the tour. Breakfast and lunch spreads were impressive! Don’t forget that you are dropped off at the square and not at your hotel/hostel.
