ASTRO-ELQUI 4 days 3 nights

An Elqui Astronomical Program was selected as one of the most outstanding landmarks to live the best Astro Experiences in an area of the planet where scientific research of the skies of the southern hemisphere is concentrated.
Oriented for adult public with special interests towards astronomy, we designed a program with 2 nights of observation combining with day services to experience the charm of this magical zone of the northern part of Chile.
During the warm days in the Elqui Valley, we carry out half-day diurnal experiences, immersed in its landscape and connecting with its local population.

Check in at the hotel is from 2pm onwards. If the program starts in the morning you can leave your luggage in the custody of Turismo Migrantes.
Room types need to be informed prior your arrival for example (single, double or matrimonial beds)
This program is suitable for persons over 15 years of age.
To confirm the day and times for your program, we need to know information on your arrival and departure times in the region. With this information we will send you a program proposal with all that is included.
