Discover the extraordinary landscapes of Chile and Bolivia on this unforgettable 10-day adventure. Explore the vibrant city of Santiago, the surreal beauty of the Atacama Desert, the colorful Altiplano lagoons, and the world-famous Uyuni Salt Flats. Complete your journey in La Paz, riding the iconic cable cars and exploring the breathtaking Moon Valley. A perfect combination of dramatic scenery, unique cultures, high-altitude deserts, and unforgettable South American experiences.
On the last day of your travel package, we will transfer you to the Uyuni airport to take a domestic flight to La Paz International Airport where you will take a flight home. In the afternoon, we will pick you up from your hotel in La Paz and start your tour. We are going to first visit the Valley of the Moon or Valle de la Luna, which is located on the outskirts of the city of La Paz. Then we will visit the main attractions of La Paz such as the city's lifts that will allow you to observe incredible scenes from the air. We will continue with the visit to the Killi Killi Viewpoint, Plaza Murillo, the Witches Market, and the Church of San Francisco. When the day is over, our Gotolatam staff will take you to your hotel in La Paz.
Very early in the morning, we will start our trip to the El Tatio geothermal field, which is located 70 kilometers away from the town of San Pedro de Atacama. We will arrive before dawn to enjoy the contrasts between the sunlight and the vapors that emerge from the earth. This geothermal field is located at 13000 f.a.s.l. and it is the largest in South America, so you can imagine the spectacular views that you will be able to observe when witnessing the steam vents that reach up to 160 feet high. After this natural and magnificent show, you will enjoy a local breakfast and have free time to explore and take photos of this area. Finally, we will take you back to your hotel in San Pedro de Atacama.
Discover Santiago’s vibrant soul on a panoramic city tour through its historic center, colonial landmarks, and modern districts. Walk across Plaza de Armas, see La Moneda Palace, and explore bohemian Bellavista. The highlight is ascending San Cristóbal Hill, where sweeping views reveal the city framed by the majestic Andes. This tour blends culture, history, and breathtaking panoramas, offering a perfect introduction to Chile’s capital. An essential Santiago experience for travelers seeking both tradition and modernity.
Experience the best of Chilean coastal beauty: a full-day tour to Viña del Mar and Valparaíso, which are the two most charming coastal cities in Chile. We are going to start with a 120-kilometer trip along the Pacific Ocean coast, arriving at the port city of Valparaíso, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2003. Valparaiso is a city that breathes life into its streets. From the moment you step foot into this vibrant coastal town, you are greeted with a kaleidoscope of colors, intriguing street art, and a sense of energy that permeates every corner. The most iconic places to visit are Plaza Sotomayor, the monument to the naval heroes, and the lifts that will take you to the top of the historic hills of Valparaíso. The next stop is Viña del Mar, better known as The Garden City, where you will enjoy visiting the beautiful beaches, the colorful gardens, and the unique pedestrian paths. Here, we are going to slow down our itinerary and give you some free time to relax contemplate the ocean, and enjoy a local meal at the shoreline restaurants.
Transfer from your hotel to Santiago’s airport for your departure flight. With this, your Chilean journey comes to an end. Reflect on the diverse landscapes, from desert to Andes, and the cultural richness experienced throughout your stay. Although services end here, the unforgettable memories of Chile will stay with you always.
