Great ride to extraordinary natural phenomena - A very great ride to some very interesting places. Great scenery, well organized and our tour guide knew a lot of background knowledge and spoke clearly. I felt in good hands and took beautiful impressions of the geysers and the wetlands with me.

Great company, highly recommended! - We had an excellent Tatio Geysers tour with Javier. We arrived at the Geysers area relatively earlier some of the other groups, and visited three different areas in the park. Javier is an amazing guide, he gave us detailed information about the area and the geysers in each section we visited. On the way back, we made various quick photo stops as Javier explained us the flora and flora of the Atacama Desert. He took very good care of the group - this is a high altitude tour so he gave us important reminders and recommendations about what to do and checking up on us. Very highly recommended!

100% recommended Whipala - 100% recommended. Alex, the guide, a real charmer. Super attentive from the day before, worried that we would not fall asleep and warning before arriving. He always gave us good information and respected the times of all passengers so that we could enjoy the experience. Your attention and dedication in the breakfast unbeatable. You can tell he loves what he does.

Nice guide shop - Whipala is a nice guide shop. My wife got altitude sickness on the geysers trip and they were very kind and understanding about us not being able to attend the other high altitude trip we’d planned and made generous accommodations for us. Thank you!

Great excursion, but... - Great excursion, but should not be called a full day tour. This tour started early but was worth seeing the Geysers. They are a very unique experience and very cool to watch. The stops after to Rio Puntana and Machuca were also nice. The guide Alex was very informative and stopped so we could take a lot of pictures.

Great Morning with Alexander - We had an amazing tour of the geysers with Alexander as our guide. We received very detailed information to confirm our pick up and what to wear and bring. While we followed the same route as most other tours, Alexander made the difference in ours. Because of his extensive knowledge of the area, we were able to see more things without so many people around. Makes a big difference in a popular experience.

Geyser-iffic times! - Great trip. Alexander was the best driver and guide. He was very knowledgeable and gave us a safe ride up the treacherous mountain. For those thinking about driving it on the own in a car, it is not a drive for the feint hearted. Thank you!
