The Itinerary
Day 1 - Arrival & Welcome
Welcome to the heart of Chilean Patagonia.
After settling into your boutique hotel in Puerto Natales, enjoy a special welcome dinner and cooking class. This will be the perfect opportunity to meet your travel leader and fellow travelers, share first impressions, and start connecting over delicious local flavors.
Day 2 - Forest Yoga & E-Bike Adventure
Begin your Patagonian journey with a scenic e-bike ride through Obstrucción Bay, surrounded by fjords, lakes, and breathtaking mountain views.
After the ride, unwind with a forest bathing experience and multilevel yoga session, connecting with the serenity of nature.
Day 3 - Kawésqar Culture & Into the Park
This morning, immerse yourself in the ancestral traditions of the Kawésqar people during a basketry workshop led by indigenous artisans.
In the afternoon, travel toward Serrano, stopping to explore the legendary Mylodon Cave, a site rich in prehistoric history. Settle into your riverside camp, surrounded by the beauty of Torres del Paine.
Day 4 - Grey Glacier & Patagonian Trails
After breakfast, set out on a boat navigation to the Grey Glacier, gliding past floating blue icebergs and stunning mountain backdrops.
Enjoy a calafate sour as you take in this natural wonder. Later, take a short hike through the Patagonian steppe, alive with native orchids and unique wildlife.
Day 5 - Wildlife Safari & Laguna Azul
Today is all about wildlife and wonder. Venture into Torres del Paine National Park in search of guanacos, foxes, condors and, with a little luck, pumas.
Continue to Laguna Azul for a peaceful walk surrounded by turquoise waters and striking mountain views, where the reflections of the Torres complete the scene.
Day 6 - Glaciers by River & Natales
Embark on an unforgettable boat journey down the Serrano River, passing glaciers and lush forests. Visit Serrano Glacier Lagoon, then continue by catamaran through the Last Hope Sound, savoring a Magellanic barbecue at a traditional estancia before returning to Puerto Natales.
In the evening, enjoy dinner at an elegant restaurant housed in a historic industrial building overlooking the fjord.
Day 7 - Gaucho Traditions & Farewell
Discover the spirit of Patagonian gauchos as you learn about horse breeds, traditional saddlery, and riding techniques in a hands-on experience that celebrates the bond between humans and horses.
Enjoy some time for souvenir shopping and a relaxing massage, before gathering one last time for a farewell dinner, where history, cuisine, and friendship come together to close this unforgettable journey.
Day 8 - Departure
Enjoy a final breakfast overlooking the fjord before saying goodbye to Patagonia — taking with you memories of wild landscapes, shared laughter, and soulful connections.
