Volcanic Hot Springs Stargazing Night Tour Experience With Photos

Early morning pickup with great communication, was advised we could not see the night stars due to previous weather issues and unsafe mountain conditions at night which was great to be told upfront. I am so glad I was not driving as there was literally a patch cut in the snow/ice to get to the volcanic hot springs which was simply incredible. Sitting in thermal springs with ice capped mountains surrounding you was quite the experience and def the highlight for me. Please note the showers at the springs are ICE COLD and I did not have a towel so prepare. Our driver managed the return trip with ease in what was a very harrowing return from the thermal springs but got us all to our next stops safely.

This stargazing and volcanic hot springs tour near San José Volcano was truly an unforgettable experience. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish, with smooth transportation, great timing, and a very professional and friendly team. The highlight of the evening was soaking in the natural hot spring pools, surrounded by the Andes, while the night sky slowly filled with stars. Being in warm volcanic water under such a clear sky, far away from any city lights, felt absolutely surreal. The stargazing itself was incredible—you could clearly see countless stars and even the Milky Way, making it a once-in-a-lifetime moment. What really made the experience stand out even more was the photographer. The photos turned out absolutely stunning—perfectly capturing the atmosphere, the night sky, and the entire mood of the experience. It’s not easy to shoot in those conditions, but the results were beyond impressive and something I’ll treasure for a long time. The service overall was excellent—attentive, well-organized, and focused on making sure everyone felt comfortable and enjoyed every moment.

I love stargazing, and I’ve never seen the Milky-way, which was the whole purpose of booking this excursion. It was a very magical day! My guide was Jesus and photographer was Nico. They were such a great duo! Probably the best tour guides I’ve ever had. They were both informative, helpful, entertaining, and have a great sense of humor! They went out of their way to pick up every customer at their location, and nothing was really rushed. Pick up was at 12:30, we had lunch, which was a buffet for 20,000 CLP not including drinks. Where we had lunch, there was a mini zoo filled with horses, goats, alpacas, and birds. Afterwards, we went to a beautiful chocolate store, which looked like it was straight out of a fairytale. Afterwards, we went to see a waterfall, followed by a cafe filled with crystals. You were able to order custom empanadas. They were delicious, and the portion size was very generous. I think the cafe was owned by a mother and daughter, who were both very lovely people. They also had 4 dogs, who were so sweet! The cafe also had crystals available for purchase, and for a very low price. I think I bought about 11 crystals for only 14,000 CLP. Finally, we were on our way to the thermal baths. As we got closer, the roads got very bumpy. The roads are not paved. If you have back problems, this may not be for you. The thermal baths weren’t too bad. It wasn’t anything luxurious. They were very simple. You have to bring your own towel, toiletries, and water. As for stargazing, we were able to see the milky-way, 2 nebulas, and shooting stars. We got lucky that night because it was a new moon. If I ever come back to Chile, I would do this excursion again. Hopefully, Jesus and Nico are still there. I would love for them to be my guide again!

What an amazing and unique experience!! To start, the guide Jesus was great! The photographer Nico was wonderful! They added their amazing charm to this incredible experience. All the stops were great and stars were unbelievable!

It was a very complete and varied tour, from lunch and desserts to viewpoints, the history of the place, and each of the magical moments experienced during the experience. Everything is very well thought out for enjoyment and complete disconnection. The guide Jesus makes a huge difference; he conveys energy, joy, and knowledge, ensuring that throughout the entire tour there are entertaining, exciting moments, and lots of laughter. Additionally, the photographs taken by the cameraman are simply spectacular. They manage to capture unique memories and create a true emotional anchor, allowing one to freeze time and relive every sensation experienced in this adventure. Totally recommended for those seeking something different, magical, and memorable. Important: do not forget to bring sandals and very warm clothing to fully enjoy the experience.

Bathing in hot springs under the starry sky is wonderful, with Condor the experience was unforgettable. Very punctual, very friendly and always very willing to answer all our doubts. I highlight Jesus as a guide and driver and Nico as a photographer, both a 10! All very well organized and gave us enough type to enjoy each stop. 100% recommend this activity with them *as a very personal opinion, I would change the place of lunch as I did not find it very rich

Very good experience was a great day, places that are visiting along the way, the good vibe of the group, great tour guide and photographer had a great time and the beautiful places 🥰

Excellent experience, the tour was dynamic, varied very entertaining, I find great that they go to the home with transport back and forth, good place to have lunch, then we visit the "Casa Chocolate", the "Casa de los Cristales" attended by its owner, very friendly and prepares some exquisite empanadas, plus you can buy a great variety of stones. We pass through a waterfall until we reach the Baths at night, ending with a photo shoot, in the background a wonderful starry sky. Noteworthy is the Guide, Jesus, very entertaining with fed up topics and data that expanded our knowledge, Nico the very professional, friendly and funny photographer. I highly recommend it.

With my friend we loved the tour with Andrea that you can tell she knows what her driving of the van talks about, very good vibes and professional and the wonderful place and the very good thermals to relax, 100% recommended

Loved it!!! More than a tour is an experience!!! We visited wonderful places and had an amazing time, the 10/10 guides, cared about every detail of our trip.

A great experience from start to finish. I far exceed my expectations. The logistics, the energy, the places, all very well. Even when they are all tired, the guide and the photographer maintained their energy and that of the group. It was great!!

Excellent experience. They look for you and leave you at home, the bus has air conditioning, the guide, assistant and photographer are 100% dedicated to your comfort. Back and forth without any inconvenience. The only change or advice I would make, is the free fork or buffet (I did not have lunch), as it does not give you varied options in price. Besides, you want to go and enjoy nature and not serve yourself a free fork in 1 hour x 20 thousand pesos. For the next outing I'll bring a strainer and more water. The visit to the Chocolate house a total success, as well as the eleven in house of glass, exquisite the patty of goat cheese with tomato, an eleven in nature is valued. And what about the thermals... You are always happy to continue enjoying yourself. The infallible, beautiful photos. I'd give it 4.5 out of 5.0

Excellent experience the team very friendly and informed. 100%

Good service, friendly, always attentive to what we need... always with a good attitude, and sense of humor... 🫶

100% highly recommended. Just because you get picked up and dropped off at the door of the house already gives you the confidence and security to take it. The tour is good, the thermals best of all and the photographs 10/10. In short, if you want to have a good time, take the tour to safety.

I came to this agency on Instagram, from the first instance a dream deal and kindness... Take this experience with my 6-year-old son, his first night experience; it goes without saying that we were marveled, vehicle in excellent condition, guide and photographer very friendly and trained, experience totally recommended, we will certainly look for new experiences with you
