Tour Description

Covering 1.043 million km² of land shared between the southern tips of Chile and Argentina, Patagonia is ruggedly wild and consists of arid steppes, vast ice fields, and pristine glacial lakes. Its varied terrain and stunning landscape make this a prime destination for outdoor adventures, attracting active vacationers who want to explore the region by horseback, kayak, or bicycles.

This 8-day Torres del Paine Adventure Tour begins with an introduction to the nation's vibrant capital of Santiago. Tour its government offices and historical buildings by bike to gain an understanding of the country's colorful past and cultural identity, then journey to the port city of Puerto Natales in southern Chile, your jumping-off point for a slew of outdoor activities in Torres del Paine National Park.

Hike the beech and coihue covered forests, while you spot Patagonian foxes and guanacos in their natural habitat.

Reach the Tyndall Glacier lookout point by horseback and revel in shifting views of the park's three iconic towers, and spend an exciting morning kayaking alongside massive glaciers on Grey Lake.

With seamless private transfers between cities and a refreshing mix of hotel and campground stays, this 8-day Patagonia Adventure Tour through Chile's Patagonia invites you to view the region's most iconic sites and experience the thrill of the pristine outdoors.

In a private transfer from your hotel, make your way to Estancia Lazo on a 1 hour 50 min journey. In operation since 1894, this 14000-hectare working cattle ranch on the tranquil shores of Laguna Verde has been transformed into a rustic lodge for visitors. From this remote region on the eastern edges of the park, hike along a relatively flat trail and keep your eyes peeled for signs of wildlife, as condors and caranchos circle the skies, herds of guanacos graze the hills, and brightly colored Austral parakeets chirp melodically from treetops. Reach Honda Lagoon and continue to the Toro Lake lookout, where you'll marvel at a spellbinding collage of snow-capped peaks, rushing rivers, and mighty glaciers.
