Program details

Geysers del Tatio (Tatio Geysers) is a geothermal field located in the Andes mountain range. The fumaroles of these geysers, the highest of the world (4,300 mts), are produced by the high temperatures of their watery craters and offer a unique spectacle of the Chilean desert.
We begin our very early excursion to arrive at the heights of the Andes mountain range surrounded by great mountains with a evening that allows to observe great steam fumaroles and burning mud craters, originating of the entrails of the Earth, product of underground hot water rivers that generate El Tatio volcano.
On our way back to San Pedro de Atacama you can enjoy the beauty of the landscape, flora and fauna to finally stop at the village of Machuca, instead of ancestral llama pastors, today this town of adobe, straw and cactus wood is dedicated to tourism.
