Check-Ins

Great food but a bit pricy, $25 for 2 orders of huevos rancheros and 1 coffee.

The rates now are 25000 for a dorm bed and 60000 for a private room for two people. Prices are incl breakfast with scrambled eggs, toast and rice.
Private rooms don’t have a own badroom.
We found this place quite noisy since our room was close to the kitchen. People cooking very late at night.
There are only two badrooms for the whole hostel, only you with warm water.
The place looks good and the vibes are good as well but we didn’t found it worth the money for what they offer according to Colombian standards.

Nice and clean place with friendly owners. The rooms as described in the previous comments are still 30.000.

not free anymore, 10$. on the left side of the building

good place to camp in the desert between huge cacti. Just take the small gravel road left from the entrance, coming from ruta 40. Of you visit the ruines (100 pesos arg.pp), you can buy water pr other drinks there. Nice place to visit.

We came back from Chacas a bit late and arrived at the gate around 6p.m and getting dark. As the road in distrito de Chilla is not good at all we decided to sleep here. The rangers already had left and was only a family running the small restaurant at the front who told us was safe and no problem to stay. We had a wonderful night with them, teaching them how to play "uno", si much fun. The police came also and say we could stay.
Toilets open all night.
Free
The gate with ranger is closed only from 7am to 6pm and the entry cost 30 soles pp, outside these hours it is always open and free to go in.

Beautiful spot.
Park along the road where the annonce thé Mirador just after passing the tunnel and the first Laguna (coming from Caraz) after it's only 10 min walk to the shelter with an amazing with over the mountains and the second Laguna ! worth to stop there.

The spot is great. We wanted to sleep there but the weather change to much at this high and we were not sure to be able to leave in the morning because of all the rain and "granizo". No facility, free and nice views.

Super nice and helpful family garage in Escazú.

We went to so many mecanics all around to try to find discs for our Chevy and nobody could find them or it was highly overpriced and they would say the job would take 2 days to do.

After one call, Ricardo got us the part instantly and for a fair price. Pito made a fast and great job, and in the same morning, we could continue our journey in peace!

Highly recommendable place to check out! They do American Brands and Land Rovers a lot.

I went to this place because I read on a website that this is the best place to eat Chupa de Camarones and I wasnt disappointed Sooo tasty and its a huge bowl that I could barely finish 60 soles is not cheap but worth it You cant leave Peru without having eaten this crayfish soup

Very good sushi place with a lot of choices

Went there and we recommend too!
20soles for the menu del día + the juice. nice staff and atmosphere. they normally have wifi and VISA but was not working when we went :)

Nice little spot - good views and lots of space to camp. We parked up between the trees. Quite a few people coming and going, even after dark and after we went to bed at 11pm - not sure if it was for night fishing or for “other activities”. We did stay on a Saturday night, so might be different mid week.

This area is incredibly beautiful. Perfect road for people on motorcycles. The road winds along the top of the ridges of the mountains. The colors of the landscape are mesmerizing. The road leads through pistachio forest/plantations. The oldest trees are around 500 years old. Most of the trees are probably between 90 and 100 years old. The area is home to around 23.000ha of pistachio plantations (2019: total pistachio area for Uzbekistan as a whole was 33.000ha). The forest agency responsible for this area is here: 38.2468907, 67.9921593. As of April 2019 they were planning to start developing some eco-toursim in the area. I have seen this area in September and April. In April everything was blooming and green. In September most of the vegetation is brown and dry but it is still spectacular.

Very nice Visiter Center which includes exhibits and a gift shop. Modest Canyon has a year round spring and Claytons Overlook has an impressive geologycal displays - this are some nice walks you can do to see also the (labeled) native Plants of this desert. They also have a green house full of very special cactus and a bird blind. Admission 6$/Pers. Opening hours: Mo-Sa 9:00-5:00, Sun 12:30-05:30, More info: www.cdri.org

Visiter Center of the Observatory with shop and cafe. In the center you can book your activities like day tours, star parties (Tues, Fr and Sat) and twilight tours. But better book night activities ahead by internet as the tours are sold out quickly. www.mcdonaldobservatory.org

Park is open but camping (and toilets) doesn’t open until May.

This place does not work anymore. They blocked the system, so they cannot sell SOAT for Tourists anymore.

Security, clean bathrooms and showers, very kind people! free

seguridad, baños y duchas limpias, gente muy amable! gratis!

Huge empty paved lot behind the fairgrounds buildings hidden from the highway. The gate is always open, and there are no signs. There are also RV hookups behind the paved lot but I expect they are only operational during fairground events. Have stayed here twice without an issue.

No signs for no overnight parking. Stayed here for 3 nights

On our way to NP Los Arceles we looked for cabañas outside the park and found this charming place. Rustic cabana for two in nice gardens for 950 pesos. Outside seating and asado. We cooked our own meal (basic kitchen) because we shopped in Trevelin but if we'd known Franco runs a little restaurant we would have had dinner there (paella on the menu). It's also a little shop where he sells home made food, wine, cheese and jambon crudo. As he is from Spain, his jambon is excellent! Recommended!

As soon as we parked, a security guard came over to ask what we were doing there. He said we could stay in the grassy area after 9:00pm. He implied he'd need some sort of compensation and we gave him 30 pesos, but he refused to take them in areas where he was within line of sight of the cameras. Later in the night, someone started banging hard on the van. It was an employee of the PEMEX stating that nobody (us or others in the parking lot) could stay there and asking that we leave. The security guard sorted the problem out, and we were able to stay. Bathroom available at the gas station and BK.

We asked the security guard if we could camp here for the night. He phoned the on duty manager and they said we could pitch our tent anywhere in the park. Entry for the park is USD2 each, but the manager said tourists could stay ‘complimentary’ and we weren’t charged. We are touring on bicycles, but there is a car park where campers and RV’s could park. There are showers, pools and slides and a restaurant with plenty of covered areas to cook under if it is wet. Opening hours of the complex is 9am to 6pm. We would advise treating or boiling water. The complex is very clean and tidy with lots of grassed areas to choose from to pitch your tent. The restaurant offers cheap local food, snacks, beer and soft drinks.

Simple and cheap.
Not cleanest place and bed are not very confortable.
Good place if it s just for sleep.

5 000 tzs room

all about the elephants.
the campsite itself is basic, but fine. the elephant watering hole is what makes the experience great. we had elephants literally 2m from our tent in the middle of the night.

You can get diesel and 91 octane unleaded petrol at this station. Don't be confused by the shabby looks of the place. It is open even though it does not look like it. You probably have to knock at the window a few time because the guard might be asleep. I am not sure, if this place is open during the night. You can only pay in cash.

Great location but I’ve been here an hour and there is already too much hassle from locals wanting money, cigarettes, water, my fishing gear, my binoculars, my clothes hung out to dry more and I’ll probably end up at the camp site up the road 😫. I’m surrounded! Plus I’ve spotted some guys (probably refugees moving north) living rough in the sand dunes not far away, so don’t want to leave my vehicle to walk, fish, swim, etc. It is probably a better location with 2+ vehicles

great mechanic, with really good prices. helped us grease the bearings after 4wheel drive track and even offered us tagine. cost 70mad for an hours work. there is a sign in Arabic on the road pointing to where the garage is.
