in Atacama Desert

Travel better in Atacama Desert with the right person
Split costs
A solo traveler in Atacama Desert spends about ~$50–120 USD a day. Accommodation, transport, guided tours and day trips all cost less split two ways.

Go deeper
The best experiences in Atacama Desert — the off-menu restaurant, the dawn hike, the local's favourite spot — are found with a curious companion, not a guidebook.
Matched by style

Worth agreeing on before you meet
Respect Local Customs
Be mindful of local customs and traditions. Ask before photographing people. Learn basic greetings in the local language — even a simple hello earns goodwill.
Leave No Trace
Pack out all rubbish. Stay on marked trails and paths. Do not touch, feed, or disturb wildlife. The natural beauty of Atacama Desert depends on every visitor treating it with respect. Take only photos, leave only footprints.
