San Pedro de Atacama
We’ll leave the town of San Pedro de Atacama and travel a short distance into the desert, away from city lights, to reach the Alarkapin Observation Center — one of the best places in the world to admire the night sky.
At Alarkapin, local indigenous astronomers will welcome you and guide you through a two-hour journey of celestial discovery. Combining ancient Andean wisdom with modern science, they’ll share their vision of the cosmos and explain how the Atacameño people have understood the stars for centuries. You’ll observe constellations, planets, and deep-sky objects using professional telescopes and optical instruments, while learning about the myths and traditions that link astronomy to the local culture. The clear, dry skies of the Atacama Desert — among the clearest on Earth — make this an unforgettable stargazing experience, where science and spirituality come together under the vast southern sky.
