Santiago, Wine Region & Patagonia

With spectacular views that are known throughout the world, a visit to Patagonia is worth a flight to South America alone.
With spectacular views that are known throughout the world, a visit to Patagonia is worth a flight to South America alone. On this trip we take it a step further by combining a tour of Santiago and the fabulous Central Wine region of Chile with a 4 day / 3 night stay and a tour through Torres del Paine National Park in heart of Patagonia. 

This trip is a great way to explore one of the most impressive places on the planet. It has towering mountains, everlasting snow, endless walls of rock, glaciers that plunge from ice fields and fall on dense ancient forests, and transparent lakes of royal blue, turquoise and lighter blue waters. It is a landscape that never ceases to surprise visitors to Torres del Paine National Park. 

You’ll start with a full day guided tour of Torres del Paine National Park, taking in the towering giants of Patagonia and the scenery that gets more impressive with every turn. Then you'll enjoy a full day boat ride into Ultima Esperanza Sound to view the Serrano Glaciers, Balmaceda Mountains and a variety of sea life... you'll even stop for a short hike right near the glacier. 

Explore the wonders of the Patagonia, but first explore the wonderful charm of Santiago and the world renowned vineyards during our guided half day tours. It’s a wonderful combination and a great way to see Chile and Torres del Paine National Park in heart of Patagonia.
