San Pedro De Atacama Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)

There is a Moon Valley in the Atacama Desert of Chile, named after its geological and similar lunar surface. During the day, the Moon Valley is hot and the tourists are in a constant stream, and the cold winds in the night are unremarkable. There is a secret in the Moon Valley, which is to look at the valley on the full moon night. Under the moonlight, the ore in the rock will sparkle, and the stars everywhere will echo the stars of the moon, just like walking in the universe. San Pedro de Atacama is a small travel agency that can book a group to go to the moon. 70,000 pesos 4 tours. Many people will go to the sunset group of the brightness of the month. Because the sunset here is particularly spectacular. I also saw self-driving, but it seems that there are not many ~ it is recommended to report to the group to save trouble. Take more water and dress more!

The Atacama Desert Moon Valley Scenic Spot, there is nowhere else on this planet that is more like an alien planet "desolate". The term used here does not highlight the endless boring here, either a saline-alkali desert or simply a desert. A person is here to play but you will be "lonely" to doubt the life I am a person to play, actually reluctantly choose to ride with the Chilean bicycle, from the town center on the desert road insisted on 2-3 Its only hours to reach the gates of the Moon Valley. As for how many moons in the Moon Valley can make you doubt the life the road here is less hardened by the road, all loose sand, the resistance you should understand ...... But the permeability of the air is very good, you can complete the desert walking experience, discover the ever-changing stones, and experience a world completely different from this planet... This is the Moon Valley, it is difficult for you. Imagine

The Bedouin driver I met when I was on the jeep tour in the Wadi Rum Desert in Jordan. A very awkward boy~ I found out that I was the same age as I was on the bus. When I saw that I was taking photos with SLR, he always felt very curious. Every time I wanted to get into the camera in front of my model, I would like to check it out. Is it handsome? Haha, I keep reminding me all the time to send photos. Give him a bow! So cute! When I wanted to climb the cliff of the arch bridge but I was scared, he pulled me apart without saying anything, climbed up with me, super MAN! When we were obsessed with taking pictures, he sat quietly in the shade of a plate and rested, not urging us to hurry, Nice!~

An unexpected treasure, a quiet place and boundless space: the Wadi Rum Desert in Jordan. The 720-square-kilometer heart stays in the desert landscape, and a sheer sandstone and granite boulders can be seen from the valley floor. We can follow the footsteps of Arabian Lawrence on its spectacular panoramic land, ride a camel through the sun-kissed desert, and become a semi-nomadic Bedouin still living in the area. When we were on the jeep tour, the Bedouin driver took us to the middle of the desert. I saw a dozen camels lying on the warm sand, chewing, revealing big yellow teeth. It is a camel spectacle.

breathtaking views from the desert, different from elsewhere #chile #Atacama #Motorbiketrip

Stargazing in Atacama's Desert Sky

My visit to the Atacama Desert in Chile was a journey into one of the most extraordinary landscapes on Earth, where the night sky opens up a universe of wonder🌌. Known as one of the driest places in the world, the Atacama's clear skies and minimal light pollution make it a haven for astronomers and stargazers alike🔭. The experience of watching the stars and constellations in such clarity was surreal. The Milky Way stretched across the sky in a dazzling display, and with the help of telescopes, I could see celestial wonders far beyond my imagination🌠. For those planning a visit, guided night tours are highly recommended. Expert astronomers can point out constellations, planets, and deep-space objects, enhancing the stargazing experience🌃. During the day, the desert landscape itself is a marvel. The Valle de la Luna (Moon Valley) offers a terrain so otherworldly, you'll feel like you've stepped onto another planet. Its surreal rock formations and dunes change color spectacularly at sunset🌅. Be prepared for extreme conditions. The desert can be hot during the day and very cold at night. Layered clothing is key, and don't forget sunscreen and plenty of water during your daytime explorations🌞. Lastly, respect the delicate desert ecosystem. Stay on marked paths and leave no trace, ensuring this natural wonder remains pristine for future explorers🚶♂️. #AtacamaAstronomy #DesertStars #StargazersParadise #ChileanCharm #CosmicWonders 🇨🇱✨🏜️🔭🌜 #falltrip#mytravelhacks#historicallandmarks

Stargazing in the Atacama Desert

The Atacama Desert, one of the driest places on Earth, offers an unparalleled window to the cosmos. My journey to this stark yet stunning landscape was driven by the allure of its night skies, renowned for their clarity and the profound visibility of stars and galaxies. Nestled between the Pacific coast and the Andes mountains in northern Chile, the Atacama's vast, arid expanses provide an ideal backdrop for stargazing, free from light pollution and atmospheric interference. Visiting the Atacama Desert's observatories, equipped with powerful telescopes, was a highlight of my trip. Guided by astronomers, I delved into the mysteries of the universe, exploring constellations, planets, and distant galaxies. The experience was not merely observational; it was a profound contemplation of our place in the vastness of space. The Milky Way stretched across the sky with unparalleled clarity, a dazzling band of light that seemed almost within reach. The desert's landscapes, surreal during the day, transformed into an otherworldly setting by night. The Valle de la Luna (Moon Valley), with its lunar-like terrain, provided a dramatic setting for night photography, capturing the silhouettes of jagged mountains against the backdrop of the starlit sky. Beyond the celestial wonders, the Atacama Desert is home to unique geological formations, salt flats, and high-altitude lagoons, each offering its own natural beauty. Daytime excursions to these sites revealed the desert's diverse ecology and the resilience of life in extreme conditions. The contrast between the barren, sun-scorched valleys and the vibrant ecosystems found in pockets of the desert highlighted the region's ecological complexity. For those seeking to experience the magic of the Atacama's night skies, preparation is key. The desert's high altitude and fluctuating temperatures require appropriate gear to ensure comfort during nocturnal adventures. Moreover, engaging with local guides not only enriches the stargazing experience but also offers insights into the desert's natural and cultural heritage. The Atacama Desert is a sanctuary for those who seek to connect with the cosmos and contemplate the wonders of the universe. It's a place where the boundaries between earth and sky blur, offering a profound reminder of the beauty and mystery that surround us. #AtacamaAstronomy #DesertDreamscapes #StargazersSanctuary #ChileanCharms #CosmicContemplation #mytravelhacks#historicallandmarks#localguides#familytrip

I reported a tour group and went to see the geyser sunrise 4:30 in the morning and waited in front of the hotel. I did not forget to bring the suitcase with the drone. There were three foreigners next to me. I know that it is also the main child watching the sunrise. The bus is picking up people in the town and walking around the street. It is full of seats in the car. I have to admire the efficient utilization of local travel agencies. Nearly two hours' drive, almost all the passengers on the road have entered the dream intermittently, until the horn inside the car rang, and the words of the tour guide reminded us that we are close to the EI Tatio Geysers, the window has long been Condensed with a thick layer of frost, we can all speculate that the cold outside the plateau out of the CMB, everyone is like a monkey that only jumps, wants to pull yourself out of sleep, plus Exceeding the chill of imagination, I took out the phone and watched the time almost no power. Iphone is definitely the least cold-resistant mobile phone on the planet. is a white dragon that rises one after another. Only during the time before the sun rises, the geyser will reach the booming period of its eruption. You can even feel yourself in the EI Tatio Geysers. Surrounded by the white water mist of this group, there are countless springs around, and each spring eye will correspond to a white water dragon that rises. In addition to the coldness of the heights, it is more like a fairyland.
