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.

5.00Great half day tour to the geysers with Pukarumi tours. Our guide was Aslye and she was excellent - knowledgable, friendly, and was able to answer lots of questions. She also was very firm about the importance of being respectful to the animals which we really liked. And when cara were speeding past us at the flamingo lagoon she was signalling to them to slow down - also appreciated this! The breakfast was top notch - best scrambled eggs that I have had in 3 months in South America. Delicious fresh bread, avocado, fruit and coffee. (Also meat, cheese and cake which I didn’t have). The geysers were beautiful - really worth the early rise. I have been to geysers in NZ and Iceland and Bolivia and thought these were fabulous. Also shout out to Brian, our very safe driver. And to Walter who cooked the tasty eggs!
Well organized and informative agency.

5.00A good way to see some lagoons while in San Pedro. Half day tour is nice for those trying to maximize their time if you arrive before 14:00 on your first day.

5.00Excellent tour with the Pukarumi. The company is well organized and the guides are excellent. We did this with Guia Isidora, always very attentive and lively. We leave this tour for the last day of the trip, since the altitude is high. We started going directly to Geyser, arriving there at sunrise, and then we took a coffee break in a beautiful place, we visited a lagoon with flamingos and a local village. I highly recommend the tour, beautiful landscapes and very interesting explanations!
Amazing geysers and nice tour

4.00Pick up was well communicated..our driver was actually very cautious in driving, but this was making him always being last..the van was ok, but was a bit run down already and it was packed till the last sit...we have reached the site 10 min before sunrise, even though i was concerned we would miss it...the geysers are amazing !! We were guided through them in nice pace..Stil maybe starting 20 min earlier would be better and less hurried..i sat on the seat just above the last tire and my back was killing me when i came back, but that is mostly due to the road being extremelly bumpy and bad luck getting this seat..nice breakfast and good guides, guiding in 3 different languages..all in all great trip and worth booking it, you will not regret it..
Amazing tour to the Tatio geysers!
