Worth agreeing on before you meet
Atacameño Heritage
San Pedro is on ancestral Atacameño (Lickan Antay) land, one of the oldest cultures in the Americas with 10,000+ years of history. The museum, villages like Socaire and Machuca, and the adobe architecture reflect a living indigenous culture.
Coca Leaf Tradition
Coca tea (mate de coca) is legal and widely offered at hostels. It is a mild stimulant that helps with altitude. Chewing coca leaves is traditional across the Andes. Not related to cocaine in any practical sense.
Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the San Pedro de Atacama travel guide.
