Itinerary

Venture into the lesser-known wonders of northern Chile with "Atacama & the North - 10 Days." Starting in Santiago and ending in Arica, this easy-paced guided tour is ideal for mature travelers who crave off-the-beaten-path exploration. Delve into the lunar landscapes of the Atacama Desert, marvel at El Tatio’s geysers, and uncover ancient geoglyphs and pre-Hispanic ruins. Visit mammoth copper mines and abandoned ghost towns, all while enjoying comfortable hotels and curated experiences. The USP here is the rare opportunity to witness Chile’s northern frontier—an area rich in natural beauty, history, and striking contrasts—away from the typical tourist trails.
