Patagonia Explorer


Discover the highlights of southern Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego in 11 days. From the black rock and snowcapped mountains of Ushuaia set around a placid bay, we cross the fabled Magellan straits, heading towards the wilderness at Torres del Paine, where we can hike and go in search of condors and pumas, foxes and nandus. A boat trip at Argentina’s Moreno Glacier reveals turquoise pillars and brilliant blue ice floes, then it’s on to the tiny Patagonian town of El Chalten, famed for its outdoor activities and great treks past frozen lakes and granite pillars of the southern Andes. Our trip ends at El Calafate, located deep in the great Patagonian outdoors.
