Discover the magic of the Valley of the Moon: a reality-defying experience
Embark on a fascinating journey through the surreal landscape of the Atacama Desert. Our tour to the Valley of the Moon is not only an excursion, it is a total immersion in an environment that seems to be taken from another planet. Walk among monumental dunes, rock formations shaped by centuries of wind and terrain reminiscent of the lunar surface.
What really makes this tour stand out is the sunset: from privileged viewpoints, you will see how the light transforms the desert into a vivid palette of deep golds, deep oranges and soft pinks. It's a magical moment that will be etched in your memory... and on your camera.
Ideal for nature lovers, adventurous travelers and photography enthusiasts.

Surreal place

5.00Surreal place, it really seems that we are in lunar soil due to the rocky formations and white/silver coloration (due to the presence of salt) throughout the landscape. It is worth noting the conduct of the tour by the guide Juan Fleitas Ortellado, who clearly works with the maximum capricho, explaining historical details, curiosities, local culture, and this in 3 languages (Inglish, Portuguese and Spanish)! It is more than fair to register this compliment to this great professional. I rate as very good/excellent the transport with air conditioning in order (this is very important) and the snack included in the tour. I recommend!
amazing views and guide
