What people love about Atacama Desert Tours
- 5 Days Unique Experience @ Chilean high Plateau (Chilean Altiplano)
Highly recommended, Manuel was in charge of coordinating the entire trip. With my wife we are vegetarians, so you can ask for the vegetarian menu. The only place the order in advance so, whoever your travel agent is, can coordinate it. The accommodation was very good, and the landscapes very beautiful.
- 8 - Days Unique experience in San Pedro de Atacama & Easter Island (Rapa Nui)
I did the tour a few weeks ago, and the truth today as I write the review I get a smile of the good memory I have. I did it with my two grown children. All 3 of us agreed that it was very good. We were able to meet a new part of Chile and is beutiful. It is the first time we chose Signature Tours and they knew to be at the level we were looking for. They were always punctual with the schedules, kind. Our guide was Ariel, a very funny person with an excellent level of English.
