Highlights

This private half-day experience combines two of the most breathtaking and contrasting landscapes in the Atacama Desert — Death Valley and Moon Valley — offering a journey that feels straight out of another planet. In Death Valley, you’ll discover a world of red cliffs, towering dunes, and surreal rock formations shaped by centuries of wind and time. Its raw beauty and silence create an atmosphere of total isolation — the perfect place to feel the immensity of the desert and capture incredible photos that look like they were taken on Mars. Then, in Moon Valley, you’ll step into a landscape sculpted by salt, wind, and light. The mineral formations and natural amphitheaters seem almost lunar, and as the sun sets, the desert transforms into a canvas of golden, pink, and violet tones. This is not just a tour — it’s a visual and sensory experience that reveals why Atacama is known as one of the most otherworldly places on Earth.

About San Pedro de Atacama

San Pedro de Atacama is an adobe oasis town in northern Chile, ringed by salt flats, volcanoes, geysers and some of the driest desert on earth.

San Pedro de Atacama is a village of low whitewashed adobe houses and dusty streets in an oasis of the Atacama Desert, at about 2,400 metres. Its adobe church goes back to the 17th century and has a roof of cactus wood, and the small Museo Arqueológico Gustavo Le Paige displays mummies and pottery from the desert's early peoples. The cone of Licancabur volcano stands over the town to the east.

Top-ranked sights in San Pedro de Atacama: El Tatio Geysers, Moon Valley (Valle de la Luna), Chaxa Lagoon (Laguna Chaxa).
