EXPLORA ATACAMA DESERT

A WHOLE WORLD OF ADVENTURE

Just about as different from a conventional holiday as it is possible to be. At Explora Atacama a whole world of adventure, discovery and unforgettable experiences await

For seasoned – jaded even – travellers, Explora Atacama answers the perennial question; where to go this year that is exciting enough, different enough and memorable enough to cap last year’s escapade?

Explora Atacama Desert
ATACAMA DESERT, CHILE

STAR-GAZING AT THE EXPLORA OBSERVATORY

How about the driest spot on Planet Earth? Make Explora Atacama part of your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Chile and you’ll discover a place so vast that time and direction lose their meaning. A place so ruggedly beautiful it defies your camera; where you’ll ride horses through wilderness, take guided mountain hikes, go star-gazing at the Explora Observatory, visit Puritama hot springs and, of course, stay in a lodge that embraces the traditions of the ancient Aymura people. Complete with 42 acre grounds lined with the time-worn paths and buildings of the area‘s original inhabitants.

“SEAMLESSLY ORGANISED, TRULY UNFORGETTABLE”
The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!

“THREE HOLIDAYS IN AND STILL HIGHLY RECOMMEDED”
Dan Mills organised perfectly a challenging itinerary to incorporate a wedding we were attending in Kathmandu. A fantastic balance of trekking, rafting, safari, sightseeing and R&R. This was our third holiday with Ultimate Travel and we cannot recommend highly enough
Testimonal 7
“PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL – AND A REAL PLEASURE”
From the moment we got in touch, everything felt smooth and well looked after. The team were not only professional and thorough – providing tailored suggestions with clear costings – but also genuinely friendly. Even after we returned, a follow-up email (and a bottle of wine!) showed just how thoughtful Ultimate Travel really is. Nothing was too much trouble. We already have more trips booked and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
