Tatio Geysers is a geothermal field located in the Andes mountain range. The fumaroles of these geysers, the highest of the world (4,300 mts), are produced by the high temperatures of their watery craters and offer a unique spectacle of the Chilean desert.

They begin our very early excursion to arrive at the heights of the Andes mountain range surrounded by great mountains with a evening that allows to observe great steam fumaroles and burning mud craters, originating of the entrails of the Earth, product of underground hot water rivers that generate El Tatio volcano.

Later you will participate in one of the greater and more spectacular phenomenos than the nature offers; a full scene of colors with special beauty that is produced by the great amount of steam which the geysers have.

You will have time to obtain one of the most valuable photographies when crossing freely the geothermal fields of the place. Ending the day you will have the opportunity to take a comforting bath from thermal and mineral waters that El Tatio offers.

You will undertake their return bordering the spectacular Andes mountain range admiring the great amount of animals and typical plants of the altiplano.

Notes:
  • Recommend bringing warm clothing (temperatures below zero), comfortable shoes, light clothing, bathing suit, towel, mineral water and sun factor.
  • Not recommended for people with hypertension, children under 6 years or pregnant.
