About this activity

Experience a stargazing tour in the Atacama Desert, away from the magical town of San Pedro de Atacama.

Be picked up from your hotel and travel to the astronomical observation site. Arrive at a nicely arranged outdoor area under the stars, inspired by the Andean Cosmovision, in the shape of a Chakana (Andean Cross) and with a water mirror in its center where you can observe the reflection of the stars.

Listen as your certified and well-experienced stargazing guide explains both the Andean and the classic (Greek/Roman) interpretation of stars and constellations. See the most interesting celestial objects through high-end professional telescopes.

Finally, the special light-sensitive camera/lens takes beautiful pictures of you and the stars. Meanwhile, contemplate the night-sky and enjoy a hot tea or chocolate or a glass of wine.

After about 2 hours of stargazing be dropped off at your hotel.
