Unforgettable tour - Tour imperdível. The guide João was super partner, made all the difference to have him with us. The walk is shorter than I imagined, but it is that as the day goes up the water vapor fades, then it is understandable. After the visit to the Geyser, a very delicious breakfast was served and we visited the pueblo Machuca, in addition to having other stops in the middle of the way for observation of some phenomena in the region.

Visit to the Geysers - Visiting the Geyser El Tatio was like entering another planet. The cold is simply absurd — we feel in the skin (and in the bones!) how extreme temperatures can be before dawn (we're going for the 4:30 walk in the morning) But every second is worth it! Seeing the steam rising with the sunrise, surrounded by mountains, is sparkling. The power of nature and the scientific explanation of our Soraya guide behind this spectacle make everything even more fascinating. It's a place where the raw beauty of Earth meets the magic of science. Undoubtedly, one of the highlights of Atacama! Don't stop taking this walk!

Good half day tour. - It was a good half day tour, I was not as jaw dropped as others as I have visited Yellowstone but it was still worth the visit. The snow capped mountains at the backdrops of the geysers makes a beautiful scenery. There was quick stop in a village while coming back, take a stroll and you will find a vendor selling grilled alpaca skewers. It was delicious.
