San Pedro de Atacama Adventure - 3 Days Itinerary

Begin your second day with a trip to the Altiplanic Lagoons. These high-altitude lagoons are surrounded by stunning mountain scenery and are home to various bird species. Plan to spend around 3 hours here taking in the breathtaking views.

After visiting the lagoons, head to Chaxa Lagoon (Laguna Chaxa) in Los Flamencos National Reserve. This lagoon is famous for its flamingo population and unique salt formations. Allocate about 2 hours for this visit. For lunch, dine at Café Adobe, known for its delicious food and relaxed ambiance.

In the evening, embark on an unforgettable experience with an Astronomical tour in San Pedro de Atacama in a small group. The clear desert skies make this one of the best places in the world for stargazing. Spend around 2-3 hours marveling at the night sky through telescopes. For dinner afterward, try La Casona, which offers excellent local dishes.

Start your final day early with a visit to the San Pedro de Atacama Geyser del Tatio tour in safari bus. Witnessing these geysers at sunrise is a truly magical experience as they shoot steam high into the air against a backdrop of rising sun rays. Plan to spend around 4 hours on this tour.

After returning from Geyser del Tatio, relax at the Puritama Hot Springs (Termas Baños de Puritama). These natural hot springs offer a perfect way to unwind after an active morning. Allocate about 2-3 hours here soaking in warm waters amidst beautiful surroundings. For lunch, enjoy some refreshments at Blanco, known for its modern take on traditional dishes.

End your adventure-filled trip with an evening visit to Cejar Lagoon (Laguna Cejar). The high salt content makes floating effortless and provides a unique swimming experience under the evening sky.
