If you are going to be in Santiago, do this. Period. A once in a lifetime experience you will never forget. Even if you have no interest in stars or planets you will love it. You will meet an incredibly charming and entheusiastic host, who takes care of your every need, is ebuillent and effusive and full of joy and wonder. Really, just do it. It may seem expensive, but cheaper than disneyland, and moch more memorable.
The visit include transportation, snacks and a great observation of stars and other celestial bodies. Highly recommended.
Really excellent. Privately owned observatory. Those in charge give you all of their time, enthusiasm and share their knowledge . They also provide nibbles and drinks ,great hospitality. Also the driver is amazing, a memorable journey up the mountainside. A really worthwhile evening trip.
