Dinner at Tatacoa Desert + Astronomical Observatory Tour

Enjoy dinner at a restaurant in the Tatacoa Desert and learn about stars in an Astronomical Observatory on this day trip from Neiva.

Day Trip Details

At the designated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Neiva and set off to the Tatacoa Desert for an experience in one of the most remarkable places in Colombia.

The Tatacoa Desert, known as the second-largest arid region in Colombia, is actually a tropical dry forest. The average temperature can exceed 95°F (35°C), and it is home to plants and animals adapted to these conditions.

We'll take you to the El Rincón del Cabrito restaurant or the terrace of Hotel Cosmos for an outdoor dinner while enjoying the natural landscape. You will try the speciality of roasted goat, a popular dish in the region of Huila.

After dinner, we will visit the Astrosur Astronomical Observatory or the VyctoriaStars Observatory, depending on availability. The team will provide a discussion and insights on why the Tatacoa Desert is a renowned stargazing site. If the sky is clear, you will have a chance to see it yourself.

We will conclude our journey and return to the starting point after this 6-hour day trip.
