Atacama to Torres del Paine Luxury Tours, Chile

Natural wonders of Chile, a land of Ice and Fire

TAILOR-MADE TOURS CHILE

Explore the magnificent landscapes of this diverse country from north to south during a Chile luxury tour. The private tour begins in the northern part of the country, as you visit the Atacama Desert. Although one of the driest regions in the world, Atacama boasts abundant wildlife and incredible opportunities for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. In the evenings, you will have the chance to peer at the heavens guided by a professional astronomer. Next, your tailor-made tour of Chile continues in Santiago, the country’s modern capital city. Enjoy a panoramic view of the Andes from San Cristobal hill before visiting the cultural and historical highlights of the city. Lastly, head to the remote southern region of Patagonia. After arriving at your luxurious lodge with a privileged location near Torres del Paine National Park, spend the following days exploring the region’s best trails. Our favorites include the less crowded hike to Paso D´Agostini or a gentle hike to the Horns Lookout Point, passing by scenic waterfalls on the way. The highlight for active travelers is the strenuous yet-rewarding hike to the Base of the Towers for impressive, up-close views of the Paine Massif. Depending on your preferences, it is also possible to organize biking, horseback riding, or boating excursions. Relax at your comfortable lodge in the afternoons and evenings, enjoying the property’s amenities and luxurious spa area.

The trip was amazing. Going to Chilean Patagonia is like going to Mars — otherworldly. The hotels were incredible; I’ve never seen a property quite like it. They do a superb job and I’d recommend to anyone looking for an adventure. We hiked... hard! It’s a physically taxing trip, so great for people interested in athletic activity. Guides, meals, service -- all first rate.

We had a fantastic time in Chile's Atacama Desert. Our guide was one of the best we have ever had; he had great knowledge of the region's history, complex geology, and chemistry. The itinerary was timed perfectly to get the best out of each site, to avoid the crowds, and to ensure we got the best weather and prime photo opportunities. Our stargazing activity was such a treat, and the highlight was viewing around 10 special features of space through the telescopes. We had a great time, and we appreciate the help and attention to detail.

Our experience in Patagonia was above our expectations. This trip was well organized, everyone was very attentive to our needs, and the itinerary ran smoothly. The attention to detail was really impressive and it was a very enjoyable trip. The accommodations were very good and the guides were great. The Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires was very impressive, and of course, we loved the Perito Moreno Glacier and the peaks in Torres del Paine.

Our trip to Patagonia was very magical and everything we had hoped it would be. We were really impressed with the responsiveness of Blue Parallel, and all of our hosts and drivers were A+. We loved how wild the weather was, as we got to witness it changing from 70 degrees to torrential snow in one day, and then woke up to snow-covered mountains in Torres del Paine. Other highlights included seeing penguins and visiting the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires. It seems like you could spend a week in each location and still never do everything - we will return!
