Valley of the moon🌙 - Very educational. Was not aware that we had to walk a lot, but over all was pleased with the tour. The guide spoke fluent English and Spanish, and was concerned about all the tourist in our group..

Awesome - The dunes and rock formations felt like something out of a Star Wars movie. The explanations were great, the stops were long enough, and the short hike in Valle de la Luna was worth it to see the marvel of the desert. Worth it !

Vale da lus - It is a walk near San Pedro, with easy access. The place , as its name suggests , looks like the lunar terrain . Since you are already there, it is worth knowing the variety of locations and visuals.

Good but can find better - Tour Company was good, well organised, friendly etc. the tour guide they used was a bit average. Nothing special. Also felt a bit rushed, wish saw more of the moon valley sights

Sand Dunes and Sunset - Great Tour company and we had Daniel who was a fantastic guide. Interesting tour but the reason for the 4* is that I had come from La Paz across the Bolivian Salt flats and so it was more of the same scenery .

This is NOT a tour, it's a taxi ride in Portuguese. - This is NOT a tour, it's a taxi ride in a very small & cramped mini bus! Moreover, despite booking a tour in English there was only Portuguese spoken by the driver & other tourists. We also arrived at the ski lifts at the wrong time so, those that wanted to couldn't go up to the snow! But I saw great views, had a lovely picnic & met nice people.

Worst experience in San Pedro Deatacoma. I wasted my time. - Reservation cancelled unexpectedly 2 hours prior to tour start. They didn't contact me until I went to their office. I went directly to the office and confirmed the Reservation and it seemed like that was the first time they had confirmed my Reservation. This wasted time because there was not enough time to make a Reservation for another tour.

Beautiful Scenery, but Disappointing Guide - The Valley of the Moon is beautiful , and the agency did a good job organizing the tour. However, the guide rushed through the stops and primarily spoke in Spanish, despite the tour being advertised as bilingual in English and Spanish. This left me and my English-speaking friend feeling left out. While the landscape is worth the visit, the guide’s lack of engagement and focus on finishing quickly was disappointing.
