Astronomical Tour: Andean Cosmology, Telescope Observation and Astrophotography (Private)
Discover the Atacama night sky on a private astronomical experience for up to 4 travelers. Enjoy a welcome cocktail, personalized telescope observation, astrophotography, Andean cosmology and a musical show under the stars.

Journey details
This private astronomical experience takes place away from the lights of San Pedro de Atacama, under the clear desert sky. Upon arrival, we welcome you with a cocktail including wine, pisco sour and hot drinks. You will then enjoy a personalized telescope observation, adapted to the most interesting celestial objects visible that night, which may include planets, star clusters, nebulae and seasonal constellations. The experience continues with an astrophotography session under the Atacama sky, with more time and individual attention for your private group. We conclude with a talk about the stars, Andean cosmology and the relationship between the cosmos, nature and desert culture, followed by a musical show under the night sky. The visible objects and photographic background vary according to the season, lunar phase and weather conditions. Price per private reservation, valid for up to 4 passengers. No entrance fee is required.
