What you can expect

Enjoy an unforgettable astronomical experience in the Atacama Desert, one of the best places in the world for observing the night sky, thanks to its low light pollution and ideal weather conditions.

The activity takes place approximately 20 minutes from San Pedro de Atacama, in a setting specially chosen to allow you to enjoy the sky at its finest. The service includes pick-up from your accommodation between 8:00 PM and 9:20 PM. The exact time will be confirmed in advance via WhatsApp, as it may vary depending on the sky conditions.

Once at the observation site, you will begin with a guided astronomical explanation, learning about stars, constellations, planets, and other celestial bodies. You will then be able to observe the sky through professional telescopes, which will allow you to appreciate unique details of the universe.

The experience also includes an astronomical photography session, where you can capture a unique souvenir under one of the most stunning skies on the planet. In addition, you will enjoy a snack-style cocktail during the activity, in a comfortable and cosy setting.

In the event of unfavorable weather conditions, such as overcast skies, the activity may be rescheduled for another available date. If the customer is unable to reschedule, they may opt for a full refund.
