A trip to the stars - An amazing experience. Let me start by saying astronomy and star gazing is not really my thing. I was there to accompany my wife who finds the whole thing fascinating. We were picked up from our hotel with a warm welcome and then taken to the site. Stepping out of the van and into the compound in near total darkness and then looking up, wow I have never seen the sky look so beautiful and so intriguing. The compound was very well appointed with seats and blankets available and also onsite WC. The tour began and it was fantastic everything was explained, questions answered and the host was very funny and they clearly love what they do and it comes across. The telescopes we used to view the sky were fantastic and constantly adjusted to make sure we got the best view’s possible and we did. To round the evening off we had snacks ranging from popcorn to cheese and biscuits, drinks aplenty, coffee, chocolate, juice and alcohol. All of this was fantastic but it’s the hosts that make it worth the passion they show in the work they do, nothing is too much trouble and no question goes unanswered. If you’ve made it this far trust must me and book the tour and let them show you the galaxies far, far away.

Using Get My Guide App at San Pedro de Atacama Chile - Had a fantastic night stargazing, Had to walk to a central location for pick up which was not in the best part of town so did it in daylight. We found a local cafe/ hotel to have a meal until it was time for our pick up, the steak I had was fantastic.we left with about 10 mins to go and there were about another 50 couples waiting. You received a message on the Get My Guide app telling you which minibus to get on. We had a great night and was dropped back at our hotel when finished. I found the tour via the Get My Guide App but would recommend most trips be booked when you arrive at San Pedro de Atacama as you then get the correct pick up time, one of our trips arrived 2 hrs late and was not with the operator we booked.

The Atacama Desert Sky at Night 💖 - Fascinating introduction to the night sky with such clarity and thankfully no moo. Excellent explanation and use of telescopes. Drinks and nibbles were most welcome. Photo of ourselves and the Milky Way were amazing.

Astrotour Review— AMAZING Experience! - A fabulous tour and one I’d highly recommend! The pickup was easy to arrange, and they were great communicators, so we knew to the minute when the van was here to collect us. After a short, comfortable ride, we were in a perfect spot to observe the night sky. The guide and translator were both really wonderful— humor and narrative elements made all the information about the science and history behind astronomy feel like a fairytale rather than a dull, dry lecture, and the time simply flew by! I’m so thrilled we did this and suggest booking with them, too, so you don’t miss out on such a special experience!

A fantastic experience - A super recommended experience. Don Patricio is a lover of stars and his passion for telling stories is wonderful. Besides accompanied by Lorena, they were a great duo. It was a round time, with a snack, local wines and photos for remembrance. Super recommended!

Exceptional we are in the stars ✨ - I gave 5 because Patricia is a born patio and as soon as the beginning of our arrival he explains that if the sky does not clear to see the stars he cancels and makes the full refund. But we were lucky and we saw the stars and lots of other things then is planned a little after with hot and cold drinks and something to snack on Thanks to our guide who accompanied us in French I recommend this animation

Bad experience - Our experience was sad because we were very excited to do this tour and we were cancelled twice last minute because of the high cloud cover. It is known to the agency that in February, March and April many clouds arrive from Bolivia and yet the agency did not warn us anything. Even though the agency cancelled the tour and there was no prior notice of the possible cancellation due to cloud cover, the intermediary GetYourGuide (with whom we booked), told us that in case of bad weather there is a 100% refund
