San Pedro de Atacama is considered the Archaeological capital of Chile due to humans who settled in the region 12 thousand years ago. During this archaeological tour, visit Pukará de Quitor, a fortress built by the aborigines in the 12th century to defend against possible enemy attacks by foreign invaders or frontier natives. Stop at Aldea de Tulor, an ancient village complex and the oldest archaeological site in the region, it was occupied between 300 BC and 500 AD. Excavations in the region carried out by Father Le Paige uncovered a collection of important pieces of pottery and mummies that contributed to the creation of the Archaeological Museum, your final stop.

Our guide and driver were very good with their knowledge and were very helpful with our questions. It was a very pleasant visit that would have been impossible to do on our own. Hotels and restaurants were fantastic. The special places we got to go to, like the kitchens, were great. Enjoyed the entire trip!
We were referred by a satisfied client and the booking of the trip was everything we wanted to do, and they listened to the types of hotels, sightseeing, etc. we wanted to do.

Rapa Nui was on my bucket list for a long time so I worried that it would not meet my expectations. Our tour could not have been better. Our guide was knowledgeable and professional with an understanding of the island that made it come alive. I would and have recommended this trip to everyone that will listen.

Mary Curry is the BEST! I have worked with her for multiple family trips for over 10 years, and she is responsive, works within your preferences and budget, has great suggestions and has personal travel experience at many of the locations. We prefer active family vacations and Adventure Life and Mary Curry make sure that is what we get!

My tour operator was helpful. Unfortunately she was unable to get my single-supplement canceled. Not too many tours charge for that anymore and I almost canceled my trip because of that.

Excellent communication and coordination for our proposed trip. It couldn't have been smoother, and any question we did have was rapidly addressed. It has made the whole process nearly seamless.
