The "Patagonian Highlights" tour starts and ends in Buenos Aires. The "Patagonian Highlights" tour is a cultural, religious and historic sites tour that takes 13 days taking you through Buenos Aires, Puerto Natales, Los Glaciares National Park, Torres del Paine National Park and 5 other destinations in Argentina and Chile. This is a guided small group tour that includes accommodation in hotels, transport, meals and others.

Rugged, snow-capped mountains stand amid the wild south of Argentina and Chile, fringed by huge icy lakes and windswept grasslands. In the distance, shy guanacos roam and a few hardy gauchos tend their many sheep. We discover the sheer-sided peak of Mount Fitzroy and the immense Perito Moreno Glacier, from which ice chunks often tumble into the water. Our journey culminates in Ushuaia – the southernmost city in the world. Renowned for expansive landscapes and outdoor activities, Patagonia never fails to astound.
