Is this trip right for you?
Weather in Patagonia can be wild, so it's important to prepare for all elements. Rain, wind and extreme cold are all part of the adventure. As a result of this wild weather the hikes and activities within Torres del Paine National Park may not always be possible, but if you are prepared to be a little flexible, you will have a great time.

We had a great time with a great group and tour leader. The only minor setback was the inadequate pre-departure informations on the $1000 option of "Minitrek" (walking on Ice) at the Glacier and the inability to choose flight class and seat.

We have just completed Premium Patagonia which was on our bucket list and completely deserved to be there , as a destination it is breath taking, and despite the distances covered the travel by plane and bus was a joy not a chore. The scenery was astounding, the food excellent, as a coeliac I was well taken care of, the accommodations were comfortable and the people so friendly and helpful. We saw a good range of wildlife too. We went mid-March which appeared to be a perfect time before the autumn rains come in. We needed every piece of clothing we carried it was super chilly in El Calafete and 26 degrees in Santiago but we were blessed with sunshine everywhere. Don’t hesitate to book this trip, worth every cent!

Premium Patagonia was exactly that. Awesome tour guide and had so many highlights. Food, accommodation, inclusions, everything was top rate. It was our first Intrepid tour and definitely won’t be our last!

We saw some amazing sights on this trip. It was well organised and well paced and our fantastic Tour Leader, Andres, and local guides and drivers made sure we had an experience to remember. Patagonia has lots to see and do but if you have limited time this is the trip to take with all the main highlights covered.
