Amazing! The most beautiful skies I’ve ever seen
Not to be missed! An incredible stargazing experience. Not as much as photography as I had hoped but excellent telescopes and great commentary and information on the galaxies.

Description
It is unique experience in San Pedro de Atacama, one of the clearest skies in the world. We will start with an exploration of the night sky by the naked eye where we are going to recognize objects and constellations. Then we are going to observe some deep-sky objects through the telescopes. There is also a picture with the stars/Milky Way in the background included in the tour, as a souvenir from the Atacama Desert. We finish the tour with a snack with hot drinks, like tea, coffee and chocolate. During the tour we provide also red wine and pisco sour. There will be also some blankets available for the cold. !!

Many stars to observe
It was interesting, unfortunately a bit too much waiting at the telescopes. Drinks as an introduction were pleasant, and also at the end a hot drink with snacks. In the darkness, you see more stars than where I am in Europe (CH).

Highly recommended!
Wonderful experience! The tour was really interesting and explained in a clear and easily understandable way, even for those who are not particularly experienced. Furthermore, the guide spoke excellent English. The icing on the cake: the splendid final photos with the stars. Highly recommended!

We went at night with a very bright moon, so visibility was not the best, but it was still a beautiful experience overall.

Stunning
One of the most breathtaking experiences. Wonderfully conducted and beautifully explained. Also I reached out to them after months and could still get the celestial pictures of that night. Thank you!

Amazing winter night sky.
It exceeded all my expectations; the guide demonstrated a lot of knowledge and a very dynamic way of explaining. The most beautiful part was seeing what looked like a giant shooting star that lit up the entire sky 😍
