    The sheer size and distances are amazing. Our guide, Anita was great, and funny. Our driver Brian very responsible & careful, which is important. We enjoyed ourselves and learned a lot about the Atacama. We live and hike in the southwest of the USA so there are some similarities. But it’s good to see for yourself. Getting to the Atacama is a bucket list item. This company was on time, things well explained.

  • Fantastic! Must do!

    This was a beautiful tour. The scenery was amazing. It included drinks before sunset with a fantastic array of gourmet nibbles! Rodolfo was the best tour guide and David was the best driver. I thank them a lot. You should do this tour! I did two other tour with Puka Rumi which were also great!

    Fun and beautiful excursion into Valle de la Luna. The hikes and viewpoints were amazing, and our guide was quite informative about the unique characteristics of the area. We even got snacks, and got to watch the sunset from a scenic viewpoint. The tour was only 4 and a half hours, so it's a great way to spend a half-day if you're in San Pedro de Atacama.

  • Beautiful San Pedro Atacama

    The tour was fine, with transportation and guide to learn about the geo-knowledge of the Valley de la luna. However, the mix of Spanish and English speaking into a group made the dynamic very awkward. The guide we picked should be English-speaking, but turns out to be bilingual. Then, it was obvious that the guide himself also found it easier to communicate in Spanish and made the English-speaking crowd felt neglected. Even in the group chat of pick-up arrangements, most of the convo has been in Spanish, and we need to proactively ask what's going on / keep translating with apps to follow up on the status. I am not rejecting putting both speakers into a group but in terms of guidance, instruction or Q&A, I suggest there should be brief translation in between so both language speakers understand what's going on more. The internal communication within the tour agency was interesting as well. I've sent over the entry tickets, confirmation of pick-up to 3 different accounts / contact points under their name...while updates come last minute on the pick-up. Not sure if this only happening to our group, unfortunately. I think there are rooms of improvement and, maybe, there are other tour providers which can do better.
