Our tour

Our tour begins at the door of your accommodation. We will pick you up from your hotel (the pickup time changes with the seasons, from 19h40 in winter to 21h10 in summer). From there, we will take a 15-minute journey to our observation site in Ayllu de Coyo, a location situated 6 kilometers from San Pedro de Atacama

Once at the observation site, our guides will welcome you, and we will begin our night by observing the sky with the naked eye, alongside Rodrigo Zúñiga, author of the book series "Bajo la Noche de Atacama" (Under the Atacama Night) and "Notas para Recuperar el cielo" (Notes to Recover the Sky).

During this initial observation, we will identify the constellations and the main elements of meaning visible in the sky without the aid of telescopes. Apart from enjoying the beauty of the sky and sharing different perspectives we have developed over time, the purpose of this part of the night is to help you directly familiarize yourself with the sky, enabling you to replicate these observations with your family and friends.

After this initial introduction to the sky, we will use electronic telescopes to observe the sky from a different perspective. We will observe objects such as planets, star clusters, nebulae, and interesting stars, depending on the season.

In this last stage, we will also invite you to our photo area, where we will take your photograph with the sky as the backdrop. Alternatively, you can simply enjoy the sky while holding a glass of wine or a hot chocolate in your hands around a bonfire before going back to San Pedro de Atacama.
