    For thousands of years, human beings had a personal relationship with the night sky—a relationship that, over time, we have forgotten. At **Bajo la Noche de Atacama**, we believe it is time to recover that connection. We don’t just want to talk about distances, temperatures, and sizes; we want to show you what cannot be seen. That’s why, through a human-centered narrative and astronomical observations with the naked eye and telescopes, we want to create an experience that will bring you closer to the sky. Our tour includes: - Stargazing sesions - Observations through automatic telescopes - Astrophotography session - Coffee break with hot drinks, reserve or grand reserve wines, and sweet and savory snacks - A campfire to end the observation - A space for you to enjoy the sky however you wish All of this in an unhurried experience in a natural space specially adapted to respect the environment, free of noise and light pollution.
