Excellent! Very professional, well organised tour operator with a very talented guide, Gulia - This excellent tour, brought to life by the very enthusiastic guide, Gulia (English and Spanish), presents the stunning Valle de Arcoiris (Rainbow Valley) with the perfect amount of explanation. The breakfast, which just about every tour offers, was freshly cooked, well laid out and organised (eggs, avocado, ham, cheese with bread, hot drinks, fruit and cake). The petroglyphs, which almost every Rainbow valley tour visits, were presented with interesting information and commentary on the main images. Overall, an amazing tour, wandering through the colourful landscape and seeing some of the unique history of the area. Highly recommended, with operator Puka Rumi.

An underrated experience in Atacama - The Yerbas Buebas petroglyphs are the touch of local history and culture that we missed on other tours. In addition to having beautiful landscapes, we left there with many reflections and questions about Atacameña geography. Then we went to Valle del Arcoiris, where we were able to take photos of wonderful landscapes. The guide Teresa was super friendly and attentive. Unmissable experience.

Amazing Valle de Arcoiris. A must do When visiting San Pedro De Atacama - This was an amazing tour, the landscape, mountains unlike anything we have seen in Australia. The colours of red, purple, green and white from the different minerals were staggering. Our tour guide LoLo, was so knowledgeable, keen to share her love of this place and was so bright, excited and honestly genuine in the love of the culture. This is a tour I would not miss, so good and this tour guide company were exceptional

I highly recommend Pukarumi - best value for money - The agency surprised me. They created a schedule for us where we were able to fit all the tours into 5 days and in a relaxed way. We loved all the guides and also all the snacks, breakfast and lunch that were included in the tours. Furthermore, of all the quotes I received, this agency was the lowest cost and I really liked the service that made it very clear what the tour would be like.

Enchantment with a new subject! - We had a super positive surprise! The tour is very cool. Professor Patrício is very didactic, attentive and objective. We saw planets, stars, nebulae. It was very cool and rich!

Do not touch petroglyphs! :( - The tour is beautiful, we were able to visit places where there were not many people with Cristian, a bilingual guide who gave very complete and detailed explanations of the place but, and that is why we removed a star from the rating, it made a lot of noise for us when he played and urge other tourists to touch the petroglyphs in Yerbas Buenas:(
