This combo is completely worth the money, the Pukarumi team consistently delivered amazing guides, drivers AND food! The breakfasts and lunch were all varied, tasty and plenty for the group - and the snack spread incl pisco sour during the Valle de la Luna tour was 10/10. It was also fun that with this tour combination, you see some people in the group several days in a row so you can make some friends to have dinner with afterwards!

Lucas was a very efficient, knowledgeable, friendly and very personable driver and guide. The scenery was amazing and the food and drink well organised. No complaints there. It was disappointing that we could not swim at Baltinache but hadn't realised that swimming was possible in other lagoons. It would have been helpful if Layana Travel had offered a tour option that offered swimming elsewhere.

Great combo that made it easy to see several Atacama highlights without a lot of planning on my end. The piedras rojas were definitely my favorite. Guides were friendly and food was excellent. Loved this trip!

I really like how the tour was handled. They were very clear explaining everything, good communication, cordial, pontual snd organized.

Great experience, very interesting tour, Mauricio is a great guy. Very well organized. Thanks!
