Compare Our Patagonia Trips

With over four decades of exploring Patagonia, we’ve honed our journeys to perfection. There is so much to see in this incredible realm that we feel strongly you shouldn’t rush this trip. We take the time to get you to all the iconic highlights, from the storied Beagle Channel to the soaring spires of Fitz Roy in Argentina and Torres del Paine in Chile. We’ll visit penguin colonies in Tierra del Fuego, and in Los Glaciares and Torres del Paine national parks, hike the classic trails plus our "secret hikes" with Patagonia’s grandeur all to ourselves!

Some of the most spectacular mountains on our planet are found in Argentina's Los Glaciares National Park, home to the sky-piercing peaks of the Fitz Roy massif. Our hiking journey reveals the very best of this grand-scale paradise where rivers of ice pour down from the Southern Patagonian Ice Field. With two options most days, we'll hike to azure lakes for stunning vistas of glaciers and the famed spires of Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre, and we'll visit the massive ice wall of Perito Moreno, one of Argentina's natural wonders. At day's end in our estancias, including renowned Helsingfors and Cristina, with their exclusive locations, we'll celebrate with home-cooked Patagonian fare and fine Argentine wines.

On our wildlife odyssey with Argentine naturalist and long-time WT Trip Leader Karen Lund Petersen, we'll make a four-day expedition cruise through Tierra del Fuego, entering a realm of soaring fjords, ice floes, glaciers, and marvelous Fuegian wildlife. We then explore a completely different environment in Chile's renowned Paine National Park, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and a surreal landscape of iconic granite towers carved by ice. Here we'll track pumas, the “ghost of the Andes,” with expert local trackers (Paine holds a higher concentration of pumas than anywhere else on Earth) and keep an eye out for guanacos, armadillos, flamingos, soaring condors, and more. Join us for the natural history trip of a lifetime!

Discover the secrets of Buenos Aires, South America's most seductive capital, stay at a classic estancia (ranch) on the pampas, then witness the majesty of Iguazú Falls, one of the most breathtaking sights in the natural world. Our family-focused Private Journey begins in Argentina's stylish capital, where you'll walk (or bike, if you prefer) in the city's most famous neighborhoods, from bohemian San Telmo, with its cobbled streets, to the colorful port of La Boca, where tango is ever present. A choice of activities is offered each day. After a relaxing overnight at a classic turn-of-the-century ranch out in the pampas, fly to Iguazú Falls, a World Heritage Site surrounded by an incredible forest full of tropical wildlife, from toucans to parrots and monkeys. You'll visit both the Argentine and Brazilian side of the falls, exploring walkways that weave in and around the cascades for up-close perspectives. Fun optional add-ons include attending a professional soccer game in one of the most famous stadiums in the world, enjoying an asado dinner, the Macuco Safari Experience at Iguazú Falls, and a cooking class and dinner. At journey's end, join our family-tailored extensions to Patagonia for hikes in Los Glaciares National Park or to Bariloche to explore the luxuriant forests and glacial lagoons of the Lake District.

The mountain majesty of Patagonia is truly awe-inspiring, with sheer granite peaks soaring to the sky above tumbling blue-white glaciers and gleaming turquoise lakes. On this Private Journey, explore the lively city of Buenos Aires, with its charming Old World architecture and tango halls, then head south to Glacier National Park, a World Heritage Site that protects some of the most impressive mountain scenery on the planet. Here the shark fin of the Fitz Roy Massif (11,703′) and its surrounding satellites rise from the golden pampas, sculpted from solid granite into fantastic spires and towers by the tremendous force of glaciers. Some of the largest and most accessible glaciers in the world are here, including the mighty Moreno, with its 10-story-high ice wall calving icebergs into the cobalt waters of Lago Argentino. The wild beauty of Patagonia is unmatched anywhere on earth, and our Private Journey brings you into the heart of it on daily guided hikes—you decide how far you want to go! In the evenings, enjoy wonderful meals and cozy accommodations where you can raise a glass of fine Argentine wine and toast your amazing adventures.
