Overview

Discover the third largest geothermal field in the world and the largest in the southern hemisphere in the Atacama Desert. At 13,780 feet (4,200 meters) above sea level, the Tatio Geysers are a natural wonder that will take your breath away, in more ways than one.
Depart early in the morning, before sunrise, after pickup from your hotel. Arrive early at the geysers for a chance to observe the contrast between sunrise and steam from the heat of the magma-affected waters.
After sunrise, savor a full breakfast of bread, cheese, ham, scrambled eggs, coffee, chocolate, milk, and jam. After you've eaten, spend more time exploring the 80 geysers around the national park.

5.00The tour is great, Sheryl our host was really nice and enthusiastic. She gave us a lot of fun facts. The geysers are beautiful. It will be very cold though early in the morning so prepare yourself for that.
Excellent tour

5.00Pukarumi is professional and well organized. Had a pleasant experience with Jeronimo, tour advisor at San Pedro office, patiently explained & helped us to plan our itinerary. Their guides are professional, passionate about nature, knowledgeable about the place. Special shoutout to guide Lorena and Francisco. They are very detail in taking care of us, explaining everything we were amazed, and very personal addressing all our needs. (We booked 6 activities with Pukarumi throughout our 6 days in San Pedro.)

1.00Disappointing tour. Driver, Julio, who seemed to be racing and talking too much to Victoria's guide. The guide few explanations and no content. I thought it was unprepared and professional. Everything was done in a hurry. Visit to a 15 minute village and only the wait in the shopping line was at the same time. We finished the tour at 10:55 when it was planned from 11:30 to 12:00. In short tour very, very loose.
Cute landscape, but little explanation

3.00The place is very unique and I loved seeing the geysers up close. The stop at the.Canyon de Guatin was also amazing and we took nice pictures. About the Hernan guide, although very charismatic and funny, I missed more explanations and theoretical/historical information about the locations and elements of the walk. Breakfast was delicious!
Solid tour

5.00This was our third tour with Pukarumi and once again, good communication, well organised and an excellent driver. We were fortunate to have Brandon again for our guide as he really is excellent. Geysers were amazing to see, followed by a substantial breakfast and a visit to Machuca, view of the volcano and the flamingos too.
