Additional Information

For millennia, humans have shared a personal bond with the night sky—a bond that has faded over time. At Bajo la Noche de Atacama, we believe it’s time to rekindle that connection.
Our aim is not just to discuss distances, temperatures, and sizes; we want to reveal what is invisible to the eye. Through a human-focused narrative and astronomical…

A poetic experience.. - Rodrigo gives us through his words the love for what he does... the love for heaven and stars. In its soft, rhythmic and knowledge-filled tone it leads us to look at or look at the sky in a different way. Loved it!

A truly unforgettable night under the Atacama sky! - This astronomical tour was one of the most incredible experiences we’ve ever had — truly a highlight of our trip to Chile. The Atacama Desert has some of the clearest, darkest skies on Earth, and seeing the Milky Way stretch across the sky with the naked eye was breathtaking. Our guides, Rodrigo and Pablo, were exceptional. Rodrigo’s passion and knowledge brought the night sky to life — from spotting the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds and the core of the Milky Way to glimpsing the Andromeda Galaxy 2.5 million light-years away. Through the telescopes, we saw Saturn and its moons, a diamond star, a butterfly cluster, and even a million-star globular cluster that looked like a sparkling flower. Pablo captured a stunning family photo with the Milky Way in the background — a memory we’ll treasure forever. To end the evening, we enjoyed wine, hot chocolate, and homemade snacks under the stars. The tour was well-organized, family-friendly, and flexible — they even adjusted our pickup since we arrived late. Overall, this was a phenomenal 5/5 experience and easily the best stargazing tour we’ve ever done. We can’t recommend it highly enough!

Touching beauty - The most beautiful guided experience of our entire trip to Northern Chile. In addition to the impeccable organization and punctuality of the pick up, our guide Rodrigo made this moment truly exceptional. Courteous, kind, competent, her every word conveys her genuine love for the stars and you can not help but be involved. It was an enormously enriching moment. If observing the sky is a gift of extraordinary beauty, doing it in the presence of other people, a precious guide and around a campfire sipping hot chocolate is even more so.

I highly recommend, do this tour - It was a spectacular experience!!! We were a complete family (a couple with 3 daughters and 3 granddaughters) and we all rated this tour as excellent. Super professional astronomical talk, but full of details (such as armchairs with blankets, gift photos and toasts with wine and various snacks). Highly recommended!!!

Beautiful and pleasant night - Well organized tour, Rodrigo seems to understand and like the subject a lot, has a gentle and paused speech, easy to understand for those who are Brazilian. It's four moments, in the first, sitting in chairs, with blankets, seeing the starry sky, we learn about the constellations. In the second, we see stars and planets in 2 telescopes. Then a professional photographer takes individual photos (already included), while the other people wait sitting around a fireplace, with wine, hot drinks and snacks. In short, it was a beautiful and very pleasant night. I recommend.

Beautiful stars - This tour is really excellent with the possibility to look in small telescopes and, with the comments of an enthusiast. On the other hand, there is a photo shoot planned in the program which we obviously hate personally!
