Worthwhile desert tour in San Pedro
Well organized and well executed tour with tour guide Francisca! She is very knowledgeable of the Andean history and the area. Sights were beautiful, van was comfortable, and picnic at the end was great too.

Life Changing!!
Probably one of the best experiences we did in Chile. The dunes are otherworldly. You definitely have to see it to believe it! It’s a short drive from Atacama and you see a couple stops. Our tour guide Victoria was so knowledgeable and friendly. Our driver, Gerado, had great music taste! The food was delicious. Definitely a must do!
