We designed the ultimate expedition through the Chilean Altiplano combining comfort, culture, and impactful landscapes in a single day. Unlike conventional tours, we optimize the logistics so you can leisurely enjoy the region's greatest treasures: from the mysticism of Piedras Rojas (South Aguas Calientes Salt Flat) and the iconic Altiplano lagoons (Miscanti and Miñiques), to the historical contrast of the towns of Socaire and Toconao. We will cross the Tropic of Capricorn and explore Laguna Chaxa accompanied by expert guides who know the exact spots for safe wildlife viewing (flamingos, vicuñas, foxes, and more). So that your only concern is to enjoy, we take care of everything: we include a full breakfast and traditional lunch, guaranteeing a total, comfortable, and deeply authentic immersion experience.

1Piedras Rojas
We will visit the Los Flamencos National Reserve, where we will enjoy its immensity surrounded by wildlife in Laguna Chaxa. We will have a delicious breakfast in the middle of the Tropic of Capricorn, then head to the altiplano. Here we will visit the Miscanti and Miñiques lagoons which are sacred to the indigenous people of Atacama. They are located at 4,200 meters above sea level at the base of the Andes volcanoes and their waters have striking and intense colors that will stay with you long after you leave. We will continue the adventure to reach the South Salt Flat of Aguas Calientes, better known as Piedras Rojas. We will walk for approximately an hour to reach the famous "Beach" where we will see the waters that bathe this salt flat and where, on its volcanic rock formations, we will have one of the best views you will have on this adventure.
