Interesting - Interesting facts, guides with lots of knowledge. Got great pictures of the full moon (we still got to see many stars even though it was full moon), with help from the guide. Free wine, whiskey, coffee, tea etc after the activity.

I recommend - Excellent presentation of the speaker. But there could be fewer people to enjoy more because with a lot of people it gets too long to view

One of the best in Atacama - Perfect! They had pillows to look up to the sky without pain in their necks. The scientist was very friendly and even funny. It was amazing. I compared to other tours that other people went and this one won!

Great time - We really enjoyed this adventure. There was a professor who was very knowledgeable and he was translated into English by a guide. Two telescopes to look through.

Imperdível. Better on a new or diminishing moon - I really like the astronomer. He explained everything about the celestial bodies and was well organized. Each person could visit and see the planets and the Moon by telescopes. It would be better if we were on the descending moon. To have better visibility of the sky.

Poor visit - A very simple visit, with basic explanations and not too much to look at the sky. No digital images, it's too expensive for what you get. I don't recommend this visit.

Cancelled with no communication - I booked the experience of time, and received confirmation and a ticket. The day of i received no communication. I waited outside for about 15 minutes passed the pick up time and messaged to see if everything was ok. 45 minutes after pickup they messaged amd said it was cancelled because of clouds. It was the clearest night in my 5 days in San Pedro, i could not see a single cloud. I still have not received signs of a refund.
