Atacama Majestic/Pachamama Spirit are the best advisers and providers of tours in San Pedro. They are nice, smart, young and very professional. We went on six tours with them and it was perfect: good guides, knowledgeable and nice, good mini-buses, office staff (David speaks fluently English) very helpful. Thank you!

We took this tour last year. The guide doesn’t speak English at all, and keep repeating the same information over and over. They also don’t let you move and ask you to be next to them all the time. Amazing place but awful guide

The pinguiens was there, but few and no other animals. All such activities are two expensive in Argentina and Chile, too expensive for the locals also, and to many restrictions on movements. These tours have been the only downs on our three months trip to A and C. In my country you do not pay to visit national parks. No gusto.
