Chile Tours for Experienced Travelers

Many aspects of this trip were most enjoyable, and Luciano, our guide, went out of his way to ensure we had a positive experience. Most of the accommodation was good, but Explore should find another option in Santiago. The Fundador in Santiago is a bit 'tired'. Also, there should be alternative activities in case the weather in Patagonia makes it impossible to follow the itinerary. But in general it was a most enjoyable trip!

From the day I met Claudio in San Pedro to my last day in Salta. I have seen so many different landscapes, cycling on so many different roads. Was great to cycle on a salt lake, in narrow canyons, in a the devils’s throat on a road above 4000m in the middle of the puna among lamas and vicunias, in a forest along lakes or in the middle of vineyards and cactus !

I love the adventure of traveling as much ground as possible and this tour did not disappoint! Three countries, 3 flights, great vineyards, amazing hands on activities, farm to table experiences, and so much more! The people and conversations with others make the experiences so memorable! I love how Collette takes care of you from start to finish of their trips, have a top-notch app for us to use, brings the groups together with their meals and keeps us relatively close to our group in hotels. Overall, the planning and implementation of each trip has been impeccable!

Fabulous group leadeŕ. Lu did an incredible job despite some fellow passengers having ridiculous demands. She coped professionally and very well with it all. Friendly, knowledgeable guide. Chile is such a beautiful country with such contrasting landscapes. I will never forget this trip. Loved being back in Torres del Paine again one of my favourite places

The itinerary was as expected although some of the details were out of date or obsolete. An up to date review would be useful. Lucie, the Explore Leader was exceptional!

Argentina Patagonia and Chile had been on my bucket list, and this itinerary by Trafalgar is well balanced starting with the cosmopolitan elegance and history of Buenos Aires, giving the greater number of days to exploring the extraordinarily stunning beauty of Patagonia, and closing with beautiful Santiago de Chile surrounded by the Andes. I did add two extra days to explore Santiago.
