When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What an experience. We went there at full moon, so we had a focus on the moon, but we were able to see many stars and two planets and it was really unique.
The Astronomy tour is a must if you are in San Pedro de Atacama

The guides are very knowledgeable about astronomy! It a great place to observe the sky in Atacama as the climate is very dry. I loved to learn about the southern constellations and galaxies as I have never seen them at home, in the northern hemisphere.

This was a great experience! Felipe and Paz (the guides) were excellent, friendly and knowledgeable and took very good care of us! They had blankies, hot chocolate, coffee and tea and snacks available, were punctual and very professional! My three friends and I all left feeling very satisfied with the service provided. The guides took the time to answer all questions and each of us had plenty of time to look at this amazing sky through their telescope. I highly recommend taking this tour; it was one of the highlights of our visit to San Pedro de Atacama. Thank you Paz and Felipe for this wonderful experience!

It was a great experience. Would recommend to those in San Pedro. Insightful, fun and unlike any sky I’ve seen.

Although we took the tour on a full moon night (so far from ideal), the company moved the time forward so that we could start the experience before moonrise, which allowed us to have a better view of the stars and the moonrise itself. . Sensational!
