Description

Valle de la Luna is one of the most popular tours in the Atacama Desert for its cinematic landscapes. Located approximately 13 km from the town of San Pedro de Atacama, the park received its name due to its similarity with the surface of the Moon. Visiting this place means being able to feel and absorb the silence and beauty of the driest desert in the world! Among the points visited are Duna Mayor, Tres Marias, Amphitheater and the Cordillera de la Sal, where you can see a diversity of soil formations that shine because of the salt crystals that reflect in the sun along the way. Valle de la Luna belongs to the National Flamingo Reserve and is also declared a Nature Sanctuary. We are sure that you will not want to miss out on this experience on your trip to Atacama.

Includes

Guided tour with stories and curiosities of the points visited. Round-trip transportation from San Pedro de Atacama Picnic with cold cuts, cookies, snacks and typical drinks.
