    What you'll see and do

    1. Laguna Cejar

      We head toward the salted lagoon of Cejar, around 20 klms. away from San Pedro de Atacama and it´s situated in the middle of Atacama Salt flat at 2.600 mts. above sea level. This lagoon is dominated by a great beauty of sceneries, its deep turquoise color water and the salt formations . This extraordinary case of geo-morphological formation is unique in the Atacama salt flat . Swimming trunks and/or bathing suit are required if you are willing to experience the ?closest? feeling of flying, in other words , having the chance of floating and not sinking into water. All this area with a exceptionally decorated in colors and formations background , is a spectacular place to observe the sunset.

    It isn't worth it

    San Pedro de Atacama hosts a lot of beautiful places. The Moonvalley of course, but definetely also te Rainbowvalley (Arcoiris), the Geysers of Tati, Salar Lagoon etc. etc. If you buy a tour the entrancefee for these places is not included so you always pay extra. You know this from advance so there is no problem.and what you get i named places is worth for your money. The Cejar Lagoon is different. You pay 15.000 pesos in the afternoon extra, which is more than 20 euros for a look at two hardly interesting pools. In one of which you can take a swim. It really is bizar if you compare it to all the other great things to see at a lower price. I'm told the indiginous people have the right to set the entrancefee and want to make sure the lakes stay in good condition. What they do actually is making a lot of money in return for nothing. So, my advice, stay away.

    Prices start at $42 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in San Pedro de Atacama usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does San Pedro de Atacama: Half day Cejar Lagoon afternoon tour. take?

    +

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in San Pedro de Atacama, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule San Pedro de Atacama: Half day Cejar Lagoon afternoon tour.?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is San Pedro de Atacama: Half day Cejar Lagoon afternoon tour. suitable for kids and families?

    +

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in San Pedro de Atacama can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in San Pedro de Atacama and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does San Pedro de Atacama: Half day Cejar Lagoon afternoon tour. start and how do I get there?

    +

    When is the best time to visit San Pedro de Atacama?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in San Pedro de Atacama?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +
