San Pedro de Atacama is a privileged zone to watch the sky and its stars.

SPACE agency offers astronomic tours every night, focused on all the people who want to know the mysterious Atacama sky.

Tourists get together at SPACE’s office, located in Caracoles street No. 166. There, Alain Maury, a French astronomer, will receive them. Tourists are taken in agency vehicles 10 minutes away from the town.

Tours start with a geographic explanation of the sky and its constellations, continuing then with observation of really amazing objects, such as, Moon Craters, Saturn Rings, cumulus of stars, galaxies, and other wonders of the universe.

Tours end sharing experiences around hot chocolate, coming back to San Pedro timely enough to continue watching the night or to take some rest for the next day.

The tour takes around 3 hours and starts by 8:00 p.m., depending on the time of the year.

Price: $15,000 per person ( USD30 ), including transportation and hot drink.
