Summary: Beautiful night experience! We learned a lot from Fabricio. With him we took a walk in flames in 2024. Fabricio not only knows a lot but is a very warm guide

Summary: Fabricio took us along Route 52 explaining the entire history of the landscape and Andean culture. It was very interesting and the things I was telling were always catching our attention. Upon arriving at the Salinas, he gave us all the recommendations of what to do and what not to do. When we got to the pylons, we stopped in the sky to look at the stars and he would explain the constellations, point a laser at the stars and explain about it. Then we gave him our cell phone and he was playing with the laser lights, the little lamps they had and the pictures were spectacular. As for the experience, it is unique. Seeing the whole starry sky, learning a little more about the Andean culture is very nice and enticing. We thank Fabricio for the predisposition and the good vibe. I highly recommend this excursion.
