    Scouting for tours

    November 29, 2017 in Chile ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C

    We slept soundly for about 6 hours amd woke up around 4 pm. After having a shower, we got ready to go out for some food and to find out about the various tour and car rental options.
    We found a canteen a few meters away from the hostel. They had a full meal with 2 courses of soup and main dish for a very reasonable price of 3600 CLP. They even had a vegetarian option of lentil soup and pesto pasta.
    After having the food, we went to the main street in San Pedro de Atacama about 200 mts away. The main street was a single storey mud brick houses. Every hous had been taken over by different tour agencies. We started asking around for the various tour options and their prices.
    We even went to the Europcar rental (the only car rental agency in Atacama), but they were closed by now. We also tried Wicked Campers but they too were closed.
    With nothing planned for the next day and noy having all the information needed to make a decision, we decided to just walk around the town and try Europcar nexy day morning before making a call.
