Discover the clearest sky on the planet on a carefully organized astronomy experience in the Atacama Desert. An exclusive location, far away from light pollution, ideal for astronomical observation.
How it works:
We'll pick you up at your accommodation in San Pedro de Atacama and head to an exclusive location. Upon arrival, our team will give a brief introduction explaining the dynamics of the experience. For greater comfort and organization, the group is divided according to language (Spanish, English and Portuñol), ensuring clear explanations and personalized interaction. The experience is structured in two complementary sessions.
Three telescopes, three ways to see the universe:
On the same night, you'll observe in three different ways: with an advanced telescope that locates the stars, Saturn's rings, Jupiter's bands and its moons, and the craters on the Moon; with a classic wide-field telescope, ideal for nebulae, star clusters, and the star fields of the Milky Way; and with a smart astrophotography telescope, where you'll see live images of distant galaxies and nebulae forming on the screen in color and detail.
The evening's itinerary adapts to the phase of the Moon: on dark nights, the Milky Way and the deep sky; on nights with the Moon, lunar craters and planets in detail.
Astronomy session
Observation with professional telescopes and a guided explanation of constellations, planets, galaxies, and celestial phenomena.
Night Photography Session
Professional photo shoot under the starry Atacama sky, with one-on-one guidance to capture unique images with the Milky Way. Each person receives 2 to 3 professional photos under the starry sky, if needed, and can also request group and couple photos if desired. The photos are delivered in digital format within 24 hours.
While one group takes part in the stargazing, the other has its photo shoot, optimizing time and avoiding long waits.
Tasting under the stars
At the end, everyone gathers for a cozy tasting: wine, pisco sour, hot chocolate, tea, coffee, cheeses, and charcuterie. In winter, we provide blankets and throws for the desert cold.
After the excursion, we return to your accommodation.
Gift: You will receive our exclusive Atacama Digital Guide by email before your trip, with local tips, restaurants, information about altitude, and what to pack.
