Last Minute Argentina Tours and New Year 2026

This was an amazing trip with great people, and we were lucky enough to have the fabulous Carolina as our tour guide. You see so much of the region and some spectacular sights and I would highly recommend doing the optional excursions. The only way to achieve this is to put in the travel time, so read the tour notes as they are an accurate reflection of each day, but you also get some opportunities to have some time to relax. If you can, the Iguazu extension is worth every minute.

My Patagonia trip was a lifetime experience, made even better by traveling with a great group. Together, we explored beautiful trails, shared meals, and encouraged each other through windy hikes and long days. Being with the group made every moment more fun from spotting wildlife to reaching incredible viewpoints with mountains, glaciers, and bright-blue lakes all around us. We laughed a lot, learned from our guide, and enjoyed the peaceful feeling of being surrounded by nature. The scenery was stunning, the company was wonderful, and the trip left me with memories I’ll never forget.

This trip was an amazing way to see Chilean and Argentinian Patagonia. There were two full day hikes, one to base Torres and one to base Mt Fitzroy. Both hikes were about 15 miles round trip with 3000 to 4000 feet of elevation gain. Be prepared for these two full days of hiking. However, some of the group was able to hike faster while some could hike slower as there were three guides on each hike. The trip manager and guides were all friendly and helpful making for an enjoyable experience. Other activities included glacier viewing via boat, kayaking, and horseback riding which made for a well rounded trip. The weather is unpredictable so make sure you’re prepared for wind, rain, snow and sun possibly all in one day. This was the most active Contiki I have been apart of, and was a perfect change of pace from the usual city focused Contiki's. I highly recommend this tour if you’re looking to be in nature, experience Chilean and Argentinian culture, and have an active week.

An amazing tour covering the incredible landscapes of Patagonia. The itinerary was excellent and accommodation all of a very good standard. Our tour leader was Carolina, who was exceptional. Yes, it is expensive and you are at the mercy the weather, but if you are lucky the rewards are unforgettable.

We had a fantastic trip to Patagonia with a good group & a top guide Luciana who was so enthusiastic, happy, helpful & keen for us all to love Patagonia as much as he does. We had one difficult couple who wouldn’t take any advice for the hikes & they had problems but Luciana was always helpful & they had a local guide to personally guide them down. I would happily recommend Luciana, Explore & Patagonia to everyone.

Fantastic trip but the trip notes need updating. The trip notes say dollars are required but we found we could use a card at everywhere we went without a problem. Using cash in the local currency could tresult in a discount but you have to change to local currency. The itineray is full on as described. It is not unusual in Argeentine or Chile to share a meal and they are huge. It woud be good to know that in advance. It is very windy so windproof clothes very important. If people go with Air Europa it is worth looking at their reviews.
