The tour will end in Puerto Madero, the old site of the Buenos Aires port that has undergone an urban renewal to become a bustling city walk.

For the rest of the day, you’ll have free time to explore other sites and enjoy the city.

The menu is based on delicious gourmet dishes both national and international, among which you will be able to choose. Live music is performed by luxury tango orchestras along with a group of Argentine folk music, accompanied by four couples on stage that will dazzle you with their precision and sensuality.

The show also allows you to listen to indigenous music live and learn about the culture of the gauchos through an impressive demonstration of boleros, which are used in the field for cattle.

For Trekkers

The excursion begins with a transfer in the morning along the scenic route that connects El Chaltén to Lago del Desierto, about 37km of gravel road. When we arrive the guide will organise the order of the day – depending on the weather conditions you may first kayak and then have free time for exploring, or the other way round. The guide provides us with waterproof suits and will give basic instructions in how to kayak and other details to bear in mind.

When we are out on the water we’ll be able to enjoy great views of the mountains surrounding us, their lenga forests and hanging glaciers. After a while, we’ll have a short break and enjoy a snack.

In the free time at the lake you’ll be able to go for a self guided walk, there are various options. You could walk along the eastern and western shores of the lake (if you dare to cross over the hanging bridge!), or you could visit the Huemul glacier (this second option is a hanging glacier in private land – if you decide to do this you would have to pay an entrance fee, too.)

Inclusions:

• All Kayaking gear
• Kayak Guide
• Waterproof gear (top and bottom)
• Transfers to & from the lake.

Alternative Activities for Non-Trekkers

We’ll head out early to take on Torres del Paine’s most iconic hike: the Base de Torres Hike! Departing from the trailhead, the trail ascends upwards from the outside of the massif of mountains toward the Ascencio Valley; Along the way, be sure to pause and look around to take in the spectacular scenery. After reaching the entry point to the valley, the trail descends into the forest along the valley floor, heading to the El Chileno Campsite and Refugio. From there, the trail continues through an ancient forest of lenga trees until it reaches the base of a steep glacial moraine, which we must climb up. It’s the most difficult part of the trail, but well worth it because at the top, you get the ultimate reward: the famous view of the dramatic Tres Torres: the trio of granite spires for which the park is named, rising above a blue glacial lake. We’ll pause here a while to rest, enjoy lunch, and soak up the view before retracing our steps back to the trailhead. From there, we’ll drive back to the hotel for a well-deserved rest

Leaving the crowds of Torres del Paine, today we’ll navigate the dramatic, rocky fjords near Puerto Natales on a boat tour to visit the Balmaceda and Serrano glaciers.

Setting out from Puerto Natales, the boat will enter the fjords, pausing along the route at different points of interest and to point out wildlife like dolphins, cormorants, sea lions, and condors. Surrounded by rocky cliffs pierced by waterfalls, with unspoiled forests and mountain peaks overhead, these are the landscapes of southern Patagonia that are often unseen by foreign visitors who only visit Torres del Paine, and are sure to wow with their sheer grandeur.

The two highlights of the trip are pausing at the Balmaceda Glacier, which cascades down Mount Balmaceda right into the fjord, and then disembarking temporarily at Puerto Toro for a short walk through the forest to the Serro Glacier, which feeds into a small lake that is always full of icebergs in all sorts of spectacular shapes. The boat will then take us back to Puerto Natales, where you’ll have the evening free to enjoy your final night in Patagonia.

Pick-up at your hotel for a 4-hour city tour to begin your day with a fascinating tour of La Vega Central, one of the largest and most traditional markets in the city. Your guide will share stories about the rich history of this vibrant market and its cultural significance. From there, we’ll continue to explore the historic heart of the city, visiting landmarks such as the Palacio de La Moneda, the Plaza de Armas, and the former National Congress building.

At the end of he the tour you’ll take a scenic ride on the Teleférico, offering stunning views of Santiago (tickets included).

This tour offers a blend of cultural immersion, history, and stunning scenery, giving you an in-depth understanding of Santiago’s essence.
