Atacama - driest desert in the world


In the wonderful oasis of San Pedro de Atacama right up in the north of Chile, explorers of all hues will find comfort and joy from the top quality amenities at the beautiful explora Hotel de Larache. Costructed in the local style with old adobe and open aired stone patios, the explora atacama lodge is modern in the right way, with all mod cons, gourmet food and the luxuries that can soothe tired muscles after taking in the surrounding desert. Take it easy and wind down into oasis life in one of the seven beautiful pools set among quince and pear trees and swaying pampas grass.

The Atacama oases are in the centre of the driest desert in the world and are also at 2,500 meters above sea level which puts Atacama as also the highest desert on earth. So, year-round climate is nice and pleasant and the the wild vistas of volcanoes, salt flats and high altitude wetlands, has an never ending appeal.

Atacama is a wonderful place though it is a world's driest desert but still to spent few days over there is just enough to make it a memorable trip.

splendid article, I had visited Dubai s Desert safari tour back in 2009 when we all booked our cheap flights from UK for the overnight but this Atacama sounds interesting as well.
