8-Nights Chile Patagonia & Fjords Cruise Walking & Hiking Tour from $11,699

The Chilean Patagonia is a barren wonderland where the glaciers float across the emerald lakes, wild fjords winds through forests and the Andes’ peaks disappear into cotton candy clouds. It’s a traveler’s paradise for their greatest adventure yet however, it is highly encouraged to be selective of which area to explore as not all terrain and landscapes are for the wild and free. Three regions reign the Chilean Patagonia. In the north, lies the magnificent Lake District extending from Puerto Montt to Aisén. On the southern coast sits over 600 miles of land between the Lake District and Southern Chilean Patagonia. And the southernmost region of the Chilean Patagonia cradles Puerto Natales, Punta Arenas and Tierra del Fuego.

Puerto Natales is located on the coast of southern Chile. Here you'll have one spectacular experience after another -- seeing fjords, glaciers and perhaps encountering whales. And just a short distance inland you are reminded that this is Patagonia, home to Andean condors, guanacos and rheas (cousins of the ostrich), all of which can be found in monumental Torres del Paine National Park.

Torres del Paine is internationally recognized as one of the most beautiful, uncontaminated places on earth with natural lakes, rivers, waterfalls, glaciers, forests and diverse wildlife. This biosphere reserve dominates most of South America's national park and sits 2000 meters above the Patagonian Steppe, the granite pillars of Torres del Paine.
