Let me tell you a little about us
What is Alikanto Chile and how was it born?
Alikanto Chile is Observation Tourism, Natural Photography and Production of Artistic-Cultural Events. We are a 100% family business.
After working in areas such as Tourism, Hospitality and Events in Hotels and Restaurants in Santiago, San Pedro de Atacama and Ovalle, we began to carefully observe the nature and tourist potential of Montepatria and its surroundings, the city in which we settled with the time.
This is how we currently settle as a family in the town of Montepatria, next to the La Paloma Reservoir.
Thanks to this, we began to expand our service areas and began to work as tour operators and participate in different municipal activities that sought to strengthen tourism in the area, an ideal instance to raise awareness about the natural wealth of the area and the great need to protect it both because of its importance in its ecosystem service and as a means of obtaining economic resources for the area.
What moves us
