A very good tour operator in San Pedro de Atacama - We took two tours with Pukarumi and it was a very pleasant surprise the quality of both. The operators do their job very well, always with a very good attitude (special recognition to Alex). The quality of the food offered compared to other companies is much better. Pukarumi is an excellent choice.

Amazing experience! - We had Francisco and Clo today for our tour and they were nothing short of amazing. Francisco was funny and informative. The lagoon was something very special to experience, with the platter afterwards being delicious. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting San Pedro de Atacama.

Different bath in beautiful location, with little infra available. - The tour is beautiful, like everything in Atacama, in addition to the experience of swimming in such salty water. As for the structure for visitors, it leaves much to be desired, if it takes too long to take a shower to clear yourself of the salt that floods the body, which you only get after walking in the bus when you are still wet. From there you have 30 seconds of just a cold shower. It gets to be funny so many rules to have fun. Our guide was "not friendly" compared to other tours we did.

Study abroad weekend getaway! - Amazing tour, knowledgeable, funny and considerate guide, very unique and exciting experience, great spread of snacks! The only issues was the van ran out of gas on the side of the road. This should have been avoidable by stocking up beforehand or carrying a spare container of gas. However, our guide was incredibly kind in accommodating the fact that we had another tour right after, and dropped us off at the other tour’s meeting site to ensure we would not be late.
