Overview

The only thing that can match Chile's outstanding diverse coastline is the luxurious accommodation that is available!

This luxury Chile tour takes you deep into the most remote landscapes. Starting from Santiago, you'll travel to the north and into the Atacama Desert, where the Valle de Luna and the bubbling El Tatio Geysers will transport you into Mars-like landscapes.

As you're in the longest country in the world, travelling south feels like you are travelling to the other side of the world. You'll go from the desert to snow in just two days, as we take you deep into Patagonia; Torre del Paine National Park.

You'll stay in a truly unique cabin that looks out into the landscape you are about to explore, and over three days, you'll have a private guide who will lead you along challenging trails that will generously reward you with picture-postcard views unlike anything you have ever seen before!
