Unique experience at the Tatio Geysers and Machuca

The visit to the Tatio Geysers and the village of Machuca was highly recommended. We left early to see the geysers at sunrise, and it was completely worth it, as the landscape with the steam and the mountains in the background is stunning. The guide was very attentive and provided interesting information about the area and its history. Additionally, Machuca has a very peaceful atmosphere typical of the high plateau, ideal for experiencing another side of the Atacama Desert. A very complete and well-organized tour.

It's a nice trip to the desert very early in the morning. (Don’t think about it, sleep well before, they will come by you 4am to see the wonder of geysers) after a journey of about 1hr you arrive at the geysers and then a rich breakfast. It's worth it.
A must if you are in the region

A great experience. It's worth getting up early. The Fuhrer was great, but his English was still expandable. The price is quite high, but without a tour guide I would not recommend the tour.
It is worth it!
