Patagonia
We cover both the Argentinian Patagonia & Chilean Patagonia, with the most iconic hikes and sights. In El Calafate, visiting the dynamic Perito Moreno Glacier is an absolute must. Our exclusive itinerary brings you closer than most, with a glacier navigation and hiking route via the Mayo Spirit Trek. You also have the option to do a Minitrekking trip on the glacier for an even more thrilling experience. We will do two hikes in Argentina - Cerro Torre & Laguna de los tres. While we will return to the comfort of a hotel every night, let's take just one day - where we shall experience a one-night camp in Fitzroy Camp!
Travelling across the border to Chile, we hike the Chilean Patagonia with the most iconic Base Torre Hike in Torre del Paine National Park which lookout at the base of the park’s three distinctive granite peaks - Central, Monzino and Dagostini. We then take a break from the nature wildnerness and experience wildlife in Puerto Arenas, with a visit to Magdalena Island Penguin Reserve, where we can witness a colony of Magellanic Penguins in their natural habitat.
In the final leg, we fly to the capital of Chile, Santiago de Chile - the only gateway to the elusive Easter Island. Easter Island offers a rich tapestry of history and culture waiting to be explored. You can marvel at the iconic Moai statues and let the mysterious stone giants tell you their stories. Learn about the cultural and ancient rituals to understand the rich heritage and captivating culture of Easter Island.
The journey to the other end of the world is long, but the memories of this adventure will last forever...
