We will begin with a brief introduction talk, and then move on to the observation with telescopes. In this part, we will identify stars, constellations and planets through manual telescopes, which they will teach us how to use. The observation will be accompanied by the guide’s explanation, taking advantage of one of the clearest skies of the planet to carry out this activity. Finally, we will enter to the observatory to use the high-tech telescope in the main dome of this facility. Then, we will return to La Serena city.

Reviews
Muy buena experiencia, desde la recogida hasta el guía turístico
Excelente, hicimos este tour al observatorio antes de ir al valle del Elqui, y ya en el camino te enamoras de todo jeje el chófer Mauricio super amable, puntual, conversador. Sin contar que ese día no salió la luna, por lo que el cielo se veía realmente hermoso. Pesé a lo del toque de queda por la pandemia, siento que disfrutamos muchísimo ese tour. El guía del observatorio super atento, de amplio conocimiento e hizo bastante entretenido todo el rato que pasamos ahi, el guia a pesar de no tener mayor relación con la empresa, fue super bueno
The driver could not speak English. I could not understand when he said it was time for toilet break or how much time we had.
