LOVE TURISMO MIGRANTES! - We LOVE Turismo Migrantes! The staff is so friendly and accommodating! I originally booked our tours back in 2019 but Covid delayed our trip until the fall of 2022. During that time, I reached out several times to Turismo Migrantes to ask questions and adjust our reservations and they were always so nice. I was so appreciative of their great customer service because this was my first time planning tours internationally and I was so nervous that I would make a mistake or miss important details. I can’t thank them enough for their great customer service. Barbara is amazing! And our tour guide, Leonidas, was incredible! He was so knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend Turismo Migrantes! Our stargazing adventure was a gift to my daughter in celebration of her college graduation, and Turismo Migrantes did a wonderful job, we had a great time!! Thank you Turismo Migrantes!!!!! You’re the best!!!

Amazing tour for children - My wife and I did the tour with our children - 10 and 8. It was fantastic. The guide spoke excellent English and his knowledge of astronomy was great. He was also great with the children and ensured he answered all of their questions and his enthusiasm and passion was evident. Our children were totally engaged the whole night even though it was late and they cannot stop talking about the planets (Jupiter, Saturn and mars) and stars (Sirius and a nebulas) they saw. Thanks for an amazing experience.

Spectacular stargazing night with AstroExperience - We were very lucky to have a clear night with a star-filled sky. Our tour guide, Rodrigo, was very knowledgeable and entertaining, guiding us through our universe in wonder! At the office, Barbara made sure that everything went timely and smoothly with our tour.

Knowledgeful, great photos - The tour guide was like an encyclopedia of astronomy. He spoke English well did a good job explaining things. There were about 24 people on the tour, but he did a good job moving things along. The photos are great and pisco sour was nice.
