El tour fue increíble!! Chemo muchas gracias por todo!! Tuvimos un problema en carretera y nos atrasamos un poco, Chemo se encargó que nos recogieran, nos guardaron el equipaje y pudimos hacer el tour completo y sin problemas. El conductor (Yuca) fue excelente, muy comunicativo y amable. Esta es la segunda vez que hago el tour pero sin duda esta fue una experiencia inmejorable en todo sentido.

Beyond fun experience. The dune buggying was a wild ride and sandboarding was a ton of fun. Our driver was truly awesome and made the experience that much better. Definitely recommend if you are in Huaccachina!
