ATACAMA DESERT DISCOVERY

7 Day Atacama Desert Horseback Riding Holidays in Chile

A daily dip into the desert surrounding the charming thatch and Adobe village oasis of San Pedro De Atacama. The
very best of both worlds: desert exploration by day returning to unwind around the pool at a comfortable hotel at night. The little known 105,000 square kilometres (41,000 miles) of Atacama Desert, the driest desert in the world, is awash with other-worldly geological formations and awaits your discovery.

“…Nothing was going to prepare me for what I was going to see and live and experience in the Atacama. That big sense of adventure, the immense other-worldly landscape, the staggering beauty and the extreme colours of this ever-changing desert will never stop flashing in your memory…15 rides behind me, this one remains the best.”
