Highlights
- Discover the feeling of floating in a lagoon in the middle of the desert
- 2 tours in 1 day: Baltinache Hidden Lagoons & Astronomical Tour
- Explore the desert: from salt lagoons to the stunning Atacama sky
Description
60 km from San Pedro, you'll find 7 lagoons with extremely salty water, surrounded by a picturesque desert landscape. Two of them are suitable for swimming, and you'll discover the sensation of not sinking without any difficulty, precisely due to the high amount of salt. We'll end the day with our classic Astronomical tour, enjoying the beauty of one of the most unique skies in the world.
The tour to Hidden Lagoons can be done in the morning or afternoon, with pick-up at the hotel and breakfast (for the AM tour) or a cocktail (for the PM tour); we'll pass through two points on the tour, the Hidden Lagoons of Baltinache and Llano da Paciencia
The park has a bathroom and showers to remove excess salt from the body (a maximum of 20 minutes is recommended to avoid damaging the skin - don't apply sunscreen before entering the lagoon).
A total of 4 hours of experience, with the tour ending in the center of San Pedro.
For the Astronomical tour, we'll pick you up at a meeting point in the center. It'll be a tour of approximately 2 hours, where the guide will explain the constellations and the Milky Way, followed by professional photographs (2 per person), a moment to enjoy the sky through telescopes, and a table of appetizers with hot drinks.
You'll be dropped off at the requested hotel.
Both tours last approximately 6 hours.
