4.9(195 reviews)For 1 personOnline booking

Take the Vallecito Tour to see the moon landscapes and watch the sunset in the abandoned magic bus of San Pedro de Atacama. Cocktail included.

Please check with the organizer whether this activity is available in English.

Details

We’ll depart San Pedro de Atacama and take the road to the Cordillera de la Sal, the same route to the Hidden Lagoons. This Vallecito tour explores less-visited spots with a moonlike landscape of salt, clay, and wind-carved formations.

Along the way you’ll see ancient riverbeds and water traces that contrast with the desert’s dryness. We’ll then reach the famous abandoned bus or “magic bus”, a perfect viewpoint for sunset photos as Atacama’s sky shifts colors.

Before heading back to town, enjoy a complimentary drink to toast the experience. Ideal if you’re after unique scenery, great light for photography, and a relaxed finish.
