Overview of your San Pedro De Atacama tour

A walking tour of the village of San Pedro de Atacama offers an immersive experience into the heart of one of Chile's most enchanting desert towns. This oasis has beautiful iconic surroundings, but the town itself is steeped in history, with evidence of human habitation dating back thousands of years. It was also an important crossroads for pre-Columbian civilizations, including the Atacameños. The idea is to discover the history of the village on foot, by walking through the historical and oldest neighbourhoods, filled with adobe houses, irrigation canals, and crops. I would love to tell you the story of the native indigenous people of this area, and how they survived in this harsh environment for so many centuries; and how peopletoday live aside from tourism. . . our traditions, our beliefs and all the insights and little details, of our culture.
