Atacama Solo Trip - Location is incredible. One of the most beautiful landscapes I have seen to date in all my travels. Support from ViajandoComigo and William were crucial for the best possible experience.

Everything excellent! - I did the 9-day itinerary, including Atacama and Uyuni, with the company. I just have to thank you for all your attention and concern for us. They made a detailed schedule and always asked us how the day went and gave us guidance for the next day. We just had the job of being ready for the tours lol. I had the opportunity to see beautiful places and incredible people during these days. I highly recommend!!

Exceptional tour with guide Hugo - The tour, led by the eccentric and caricatured guide Hugo and his son Diego, was incredible. This is largely due to the patience and charisma of the guide (who has become our favorite baddie). He waited patiently for everyone to take their infinite photos (lol) without rushing, he explained everything properly and even offered options for those who didn't feel well for the trip at high altitudes. An exceptional guy!!! And with a unique sense of humor (lol). The best of all!!!

Exceptional - Expectations exceeded! I recommend it with my eyes closed! Super organized, William is very attentive and helpful. The organization of the tours was sensational, with time to rest and get used to the altitude. The agencies that took us were excellent, new cars (super safe), delicious breakfast and cocktails, experienced guides. Note thousand.

Tours in Atacama - I really liked the tours. The communication always very good with the agency. We had a great experience. Only one day that had a downtime with the schedule that was changed, but did all right in the end. Indicate the agency.

It's not worth it! - I closed on top of the hour, which made me not research well the companies, I closed with them, were very practical and sought after at the beginning, nothing to complain about, but then, I verified that it is a third-party agency, who does the tours is another agency (I did with Pukarumi), nothing to complain about from Pukarumi, the contact with them is great, make things easy, so, I find it easier to close everything directly with them, comes out much cheaper and practical. Traveling with me sold me a tour to Red Piedras, which was not happening, because the park was closed. It turns out that I was not informed about this, put other places in the script (which I discovered on the tour), but that I was not interested in knowing, this without any prior notice. Well, the Pukarumi agency refunded its customers for this unrealized tour, the Traveling with me, did not refund me, on the argument that was made another in place. As I said, I was not informed of anything and did not choose to take another walk. But when I asked, the answer was: “What refund”? Besides, the last two tours I also informed myself directly in the agency there about schedules, since I was without information by this agency. That's it, lack of transparency, so my experience would have been better if I had spent a few more minutes of my time and closed directly with the agency there than with a third-party.

Wasted day the driver never showed up - This was a wasted day out of my 2 days in Atacama desert. The tour guide never showed up for pickup. After 30 min of waiting at the agreed spot, I messaged tge tour guide, after 45 min of waiting I received a message their car had an issue. I got up at 6am for thi trip, so by 8 am I lost any opportunity to have a full day tour, just lost a day. Never did this tour operator issue a refund, struggling with Viator now to at least get my money back. Do not use this agency ever, unacceptable experience.
