The third largest geothermal field in the world - and the first in the southern hemisphere - is located in San Pedro de Atacama. In the first hour of dawn we reached 4,200m high to walk through the geysers at their busiest time, while on the way down, we took advantage of the beautiful landscapes, flora and fauna of the plateau. *Attention* The entrance ticket to the park is not included in the tour price and must be paid separately in person at the agency.

From the first interaction, it was incredible with Persi. We were a group of 5 people, including family and friends; we did 3 tours with them (Piedras Rojas, Tatio Geysers, and Moon Valley) and all 3 were unbeatable. They picked us up at the hotel and dropped us off on Calle Caracoles, the most central street in San Pedro. We had Felipe and Kevin as guides, two people very well-qualified to make these tours unforgettable moments for us. Highly recommended agency!
We did all our tours with IntiPara and were advised on the first day by Perci, who gave us wonderful service and helped us put together our itinerary. After 6 tours completed, we can assure you that everything went perfectly, we lived some incredible days, and we enjoyed our stay in San Pedro a lot.
Superb landscapes. A fabulous tour with 2 top-notch guides: Kévin and Sergio. Professional (Sergio is a high-mountain guide trained in Chamonix), extremely knowledgeable, and attentive. Very well-organized tour, from the meeting at the hotel to the return. Exceptional geyser site, dazzling sunrise 🌅, and panoramic breakfast: a must! Special mention to Perceval, the agency manager, who goes out of his way for travelers.
We did all the tours with Inti Para Travel, and we had a great experience with the pickup, the food, the places, and the guides. The Tatio Geysers were among the most beautiful landscapes I have seen in my life; it is very cold, but it is worth it. We did the tour with Felipe and learned a lot.
Our tour guide Klaus was really great, excellent explanation in both English and Spanish, definitely recommend this trip
Excellent tour in every sense: organization, experience, and quality of services. I especially want to highlight the enthusiasm and preparation of our guide Klaus, who enriched our experience at the Geysers of Tatio with his personality and charisma. I also want to mention Iris, an excellent driver and very kind. We leave happy and with the best memories.
I want to highlight to FELIPE our guide for his work and his delivery in each of the tours that I touch with him (there were several). At all times attentive to the group and how we were feeling throughout each tour, delivering a lot of information from each place visited making it more enriching for those looking for a more immersive experience, although the tour is group feels quite welcoming. Experience with Felipe 1000/10, if you take any tour ask that it be with the, 100% recommended.
I have to say from the moment we were picked up and actually from the moment we booked this tour, the correspondence with the team was incredible. We were picked up between 4:30 and 5:10 a.m. and I sent a WhatsApp group to tell me more information about the tour and exact pick up times. Our guides were incredible, lemon and editha, both so professional and spoke Spanish, Portuguese and English. The breakfast that they served was delicious and we had lots of stop-offs for toilet breaks and photo opportunities. Make sure you wear something warm.
It was a very nice tour, it gave us very good information and was as good as a geological exploitation and a safari. We talk about indigenous fauna, flora, local native culture, the history of mining, the geological formation of volcanoes. It was really excellent.
Incredible place, completely different from everything I've ever witnessed in nature. Attention to clothes pq really makes cold, was -3C on the day we went to visit. Remember to leave for the last day of the Atacama because of the Altitude.
