  The 2 days tour was amazing, we learnt a lot about Chilean culture and history thanks to our guide. Our driver was very nice and experienced. We felt safe on… read more despite the many crashed cars on the road.
The selected restaurant were good, and the hotel in Putre was very nice as well.
We saw many beautiful landscape and wild animals. We ended the tour with a dip in the thermal springs, that was an amazing experience.

  I highly recommend this agency to visit the stunning Altiplanic region around Putre. We did 3-day private tour with the wonderful guide Francisco who knows everything about the region. The… read more agency is very professional and the tour was tailored on the basis of our request with no strict times or rush. Definitely recommended!!

  Tomé el plan de 4 noches 5 días con hospedaje y 4 Tours uno por día a Valle de la Luna, Geisers del Tatio, Laguna Cejar ,y salares y Piedras… read more Rojas
Desde el aeropuerto en todo momento conectados y preocupados de informar y confirmar que sigue a que hora etc. Atención amistosa pero muy profesional, 100% recomendable
Relación precio Calidad óptima

Hostal Elim muy cómodo, todo si funciona agua Caliente sabanas y toallas limpias para ser hostal muy bien, si toca salir de madrugada a un Tour (antes de las 7:00 am) avisa en recepción y la noche anterior te dejan un sándwich y un termo con agua caliente para un té y un yogur, lo encontré buen detalle

  Precioso el tour y la agencia muy responsable, el conductor muy prudente para manejar y muy instruido en toda la historia que conlleva el recorrido. Lo recomiendo al 100%.

  We had 8-day tour from Arica to San Pedro. The first 5 days were in a form of private tour with a driver/guide. This part was great: you get to… read more go to little visited places and experience the vastness of north Chile. Our driver was friendly and knowledgeable. We hardly ever got off the road, which I regretted a little, but we got to see a lot as it is. Accommodation and food was nothing more than basic, which is OK, and what you could expect from such remote places. When we got to Sand Pedro De Atacama for the last 2.5 days, we fared well from our guide and were set for 3 short excursions with one of the local operators. This part we enjoyed less: the excursions where in packed buses and I often felt like a member of a herd which is pushed from one meadow to the next. It seems like everyone in San Pedro takes the same excursions which have fixed routes at fixed times. So, everywhere we stopped we had 2-20 buses, of other operators, offloading their passengers together with us and departing together with us. We sometimes felt that we were given too short of a time to appreciate a location, while in at least one case we were not allowed to visit the destination… That's right, we drove a long way to Piedras Rojas, but the place is closed due to rehabilitation. You don't get to see it at all. The hotel which we were accommodated in was 10 min walk from the center of town and had only basic facilities (no wifi in the room, poor breakfast, etc.). The promised transport to the airport in the last day was again a seat in a bus with pre-set departure time which meant for us a long wait at the airport – we opted to pay for a private taxi instead (not that expensive) and get some more relaxing time in the town. Overall the cost of this trip was high in any standard, yet we felt that, especially in the last three days, we didn't get our money's worth. If I did it again, I'd probably rent a car for the entire duration, or at least for the last part in San Pedro. I'm sure that we would have had a different experience in San Pedro had we drove our own car, or paid for a taxi to avoid the crowds, make better use of our time, and visit some spots off the beaten track.

  My wife and I had a great time. The sites were amazing, and there was so much wildlife! Highly recommended. The food and lodging Mayuru tours provided was all great.… read more And our guide Mario was incredibly knowledgeable, a very safe driver, and just a really nice guy.

Merece una mención especial Lorena (que fué nuestra guia en "lagunas amtiplánicas" y "geyseres del Tatio" por su profesionalidad y simpatia.
En cuanto al "hotel Dunas", sencillo pero acogedor, tuvieron un tracto muy correcto.
Gràcies per tot, de tot cor.

  Nuestra experiencia con los chicos de Mayuru no pudo salir mejor. Nos enviaron un tour de acuerdo a los días que nos quedamos en San Pedro de Atacama (3D2N) que… read more fue realmente inolvidable. Siempre se preocuparon desde el primer momento en que tengamos claro los itinerarios, al momento de partir y de llegar siempre hubo comunicación constante por parte de ellos, preguntándonos siempre si todo estaba bien. Nos recibieron para llevarnos al primer tour a nuestra llegada a San Pedro, dándonos itinerario impreso, con consejos y el detalle de lo que haríamos ese día. Al finalizar nuestra estadía también nos consultaron si todo estaba bien y hasta que partimos de Calama siempre muy pendientes. Fue un tour inolvidable y un servicio de calidad que recomendamos mucho 🙂

Our experience with the Mayuru team couldn’t be better. They send us a tour according to the days we stayed in San Pedro de Atacama (3D2N) which were unforgettable. They always care since the very first momento to have a clear information about the itinerary, during the departure and arrival we had contact all the time from them, wondering if everything was going as good as we expected. Also, they took us to the first tour during our arrival in San Pedro, giving us the printed itinerary, with advices and all the important details about each day. At the end of our stay, they always care if everythign was good with all the itinerary and until we left Calama they were always wondering about our safety and if the tour was as good as they expected which yes, it was! It was an unforgettable experience and a very high quality of service, we do recommend this company to anyone who want to go to San Pedro 🙂

  We spent 3 days in Lauca National Park with Mayuru tours.
The service was perfect. They picj-up us at the border with Bolivia, and then we visited all the… read more best places of this area.
The driver was also a guide and he expained us a lot of things.
We had some problems at the beginning to organize the trip (the communication by email was hard ant tey took many days to give an answer) but at the end we figure out all the dtails and we had a really goo service.

  I guided a 13 Day Atacama tour from March 4-15 this year. I contracted a van and driver for the tour to go from San Pedro to Putre, with… read more stops in 3 national reserves, the Vicunha NR, Flamingos NR and Lauca National Park and on to Arica, with 3 more full days.

Mario, our driver, and guide excelled in every way. He really knew all the areas we went to and knew people at every stop. I have been operating tours in South America and living in Brazil for 43 years, and have had a lot of drivers. I will now insist in having him drive all our tours from Arica!

  A fantastic round trip with great program, very experienced guides, nice accommodations and excellent support.
Due to flight problems we missed our first day, but Mayuru Tour adjusted our tour… read more perfectly and was always available.
Thank you very much! We would always book again with this agency!

¡Muchas gracias! Volveríamos a reservar con esta agencia.
