We were a group of 5, the youngest being 16, and the oldest 80, guided by Alexander, who was absolutely amazing. Extremely knowledgeable, with fluent English, and a fun and good vibes person to spend time with. Everything was very well organised, with high quality open air breakfasts and lunch in the most beautiful scenery. We spent three full days in extraordinary places in Atacama desert, and we highly recommend this company. owned by Jhonatan, who was himself very much involved and cooperative.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We’re truly happy to know that your family, enjoyed the experience together. That’s exactly what we aim for: tours that can be enjoyed across generations. Alexander will be delighted to read your words; his knowledge, energy, and good vibes are a big part of what makes each day special. We’re also glad you appreciated the organization and the open-air breakfasts and lunches in such unique landscapes. Exploring the Atacama over several days allows its magic to truly unfold, and it means a lot to us that you felt well taken care of throughout the journey. Thank you as well for highlighting Jhonatan’s involvement, being close to each experience and each guest is part of who we are. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope these days in the Atacama remain unforgettable memories for all of you.
Excellent service from the pick up at the airport in Calama to all the tours guided by Alexander Órdenes. The attention to details, the snacks and food provided during the tour was of excellent quality. I can specially recommend Alexander: warm, knowledgeable, punctual and excellent English.

We had an excellent 1 and a half days in the Atacama Desert with Cony of Atacama Tours. I contacted Atacama Tours many months before our trip and reconnected shortly before. All arrangements were seamless. Picked up at the airport for transfer to the San Pedro hotel. Then Coni met us for a tour of Valley de la Luna. She is kind and very knowledgeable. The following day, we were met early for a full day tour to explore Atacama Desert. Coni prepared breakfast and lunch for us….both delicious and filling. The 4 of us can’t speak more highly of Atacama Tours and will be recommending their team to friends. We feel fortunate to have had Coni as our guide!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a great experience exploring the Atacama Desert with Coni and our team. It was truly a pleasure to be part of your journey and share the beauty of this incredible place with you. We’re glad you enjoyed the seamless arrangements, the tours, and of course, the meals prepared by Coni! Your kind words and recommendations mean the world to us, and we feel just as fortunate to have had you as our guests. Warm regards
Tour led by guide Alonso. We were 5 people (2 Chileans and 3 Brazilians, including me). The guide explained everything so that everyone understood very well. Pick up and drop off at the hostel. We had a very peaceful trek. The guide always asked if we were ok because of the altitude and reinforced the consumption of water and sunscreen. Helped to capture photos. At the end, they offered us a wonderful afternoon coffee!
This was our first contact with the Desert and it made a total difference to be in the company of the Atacama Tuors team! The team advised us in advance about appropriate clothing, sun protection, hydration and basic care for this specific tour. Guide Alonso also guided us on basic care and gave us a real lesson, explaining in detail about the spectacular rock formations that we had contact with, a real lesson in geography, geology, etc.. At all times he questioned whether we understood, even after explanations in very Spanish. “despacito” and a good Portuguese vocabulary in between, because he is learning our language 🥰 I also always questioned whether we were ok during the walks. Very helpful, he offered to “take” several photos with our devices. Wonderful coffee at the end of the tour watching the sunset! I recommend this team!
Connie was an excellent commentator and made sure that everyone in our group of 7 was comfortable and knew what we were doing, and for how long. She took us to several picturesque spots within the park before ending with a nice table with snacks and alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages! A great tour, and so wonderful that it was a small group!
Very good service, excellent transportation and guide. The place is beautiful, also with an exquisite catering service! They made the tour of the Valley of the Moon a unique experience!
An excellent service. They give you complete information and you feel like family. In addition to the landscapes and more photos that you take with you as memories, they are great.
The place is very beautiful, it is like being on the moon, the transportation is very good, the guide Daniel and the driver Hugo are excellent, good disposition, attention and collaboration when taking photos, the catering service was very delicious, the pisco sour was excellent rich rich Also the attention of Atacama Tours, for their help in taking the tours, I recommend them 1000%. Thanks for everything.
Excellent experience, everything well organized, very professional and pleasant people, highly recommended!!
