Our five day visit was a superb experience that surpassed our expectations in every way. From start to finish, Explora provided flawless, personalized service. The hotel website is one of the best I’ve seen. There is a tremendous amount of information about how things work and what activities are available. Even before we flew to Calama, I was already looking...

We just returned from a trip to Argentina and Chile. We stayed at Hotel Explora in Atacama and Patagonia. In both locations we can simply say that the experience my wife and I had was simply magnificent. I had research the Explora chain after some friends had recommended it and decided to make it part of my itinerary in South...

The Atacama desert has some of the most spectacular scenery and hiking mountains in the world - and hence one expects the highest quality of guides and trips.
Explora Atacama delivers on this front brilliantly, with a full roster of guides who have extensive experience with guiding (more than 5+ years in most cases) and a brilliant range of hiking...

On reflection I think this place was worth the money. The location is one of the most interesting, unique places in the world and the quality and range of excursions was truly exceptional. Our room was quite luxurious (if a bit spartan) but the common areas are quite lovely and harmonize with the surroundings. The pool is truly stunning--has to...

Explora Patagonia was perfect and we expected Atacama property to match it. Alas the service was not at par. Our wake up call was missed, the guides gave different times to meet in the lobby , the guides were switched and it was utter confusion.
The rooms and the food was nice. I wish the chefs offer something creative for...

Explora Atacama is a unique experience.

Explora is not about tourism, Explora is about travel and discovery. It may seems alike, but there is...

We are serious travelers. We have been in the most fascinating, luxurious and unique hotels around the world so we had reasonably high expectations. Explora was beyond all. Is not just the Hotel or the location, the design, the rooms, the showers and bathrooms or the cuisine is also about the experience. Explora is the base camp for the best...

Dear Traveler,
Thank you for your reviewing your explora travel experience.
Your review makes a wonderful point and that is that explora is a “travel experience” not solely a hotel group. In our humble opinion, it is the experience is what distinguishes explora from other travel companies and you’ve put into very kind words what an explora adventure means for...

This place costs the earth, but worth every penny - not just because it came at the end of a month´s fairlly hard travelling acorss Peru and Bolivia but the standard of excellent (but unobtrusive) service is simply the best. Despite being in the middle of one of the worls´s more extreme deserts the restaurant has top notch food and...

Dear traveler,
Thank you so very much for your kind words about explora.
I am delighted to hear that you traveled as a family to explora Atacama and that all members of your family found or tried activities that you enjoyed. While every excursion can be undertaken as a family, it’s also very simple to split up in different activities...

We chose the Hotel de Larache as the start point of our Travesia to Uyuni salt flat (with Explora as well). As at the 2 other Explora properties at Torres del Paine & Rapa Nui, the proposed excursions are excellent with very knowledgeable guides. However, the hotel itself is not as impressive as the 2 other Explora properties. Some equipments...

Naturally, we wish your experience had been perfect in all three destinations. While that overall seems to the case, you’ve pointed out some shortcomings in the pool area of our Atacama lodge. Due to...
