- Cordillera de la Sal - As part of the route to the Baltinache lagoons, we pass through the Llano de la Paciencia where we have the Cordillera de Sal on one side and the Cordillera de Domeyko on the other. That road takes about 1 hour to go and then another hour to return.
- Magic Bus Atacama - We will travel to the valley of the abandoned bus, also known as the ‘Magic Bus’. Iconic for its rustic appearance and perfect setting, you can take advantage of this time to capture the perfect photo.

Baltinache Lagoons w. Vallecito & Salt Flats Route - I did two tours with this company and had Francisco as my guide both mornings. The company is very organized and sends WhatsApp updates and info the evening before to keep you informed. The food was delicious. Francisco is super friendly and full of awesome information. He also takes fantastic photos of you or your group/family. Very fluent in English. Highly recommend this company. The sites were gorgeous 😍

Superb - Our guide Francisco gave us valuable information about the origin of the lagoons and its formation. The scenery was beautiful and to top off the visit a delicious dinner aperitif was served before we returned to the hotel. A great experience thank you.

TOUR LAKE BALTINACHE - We took a tour to the hidden lake Baltinache. Our guides were Catherine and Clogualdo. It was a great experience, the team was punctual and very playful. We share a rich cocktail at the end of the Vallecillo tour. Even though we had a bad climate we were able to do a lot of the activities.
I recommend the team and the lake tour!

Highly recommended - It was a fantastic tour! Our guide, Cris, from the beginning was explaining about the formations we saw and approached. The lagoons are beautiful, as is the surrounding landscape. Then, in the Sal mountain range we went to Vallecito, where the abandoned bus is. In the end, the cocktail/snack... Great!

Gorgeous and fun tour of the desert! - Rodolfo, our guide, was very accommodating and professional. Provided information in both Spanish and English. Felt completely safe in his care! The lagoons were stunning and the landscape otherworldly. Rodolfo went out of his way to show us additional sights and viewpoints before wrapping up the tour in San Pedro.
