Is this trip right for you?

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.

The Patagonian Premium trip has been our fourth with Intrepid. We continue to be impressed with the experiences offered, the quality, professionalism, friendliness and knowledge of the tour leaders together with the small size of the tour groups. The quality of accommodation and meals provided were also of the highest quality. We have no hesitation in recommending Intrepid and their Patagonian Premium trip to others.

Patagonia is a unique & isolated place to visit. The Intrepid design of locations and activities were simply well designed without a moment wasted and your guide/tour manager, TomĂĄs Revestido, helped make the trip far better than I expected with his local knowledge, sense of humor & proactive approach to helping everyone. The trip could not have been better. We had originally booked a Patagonia trip with a far more expensive operator than Intrepid, however they cancelled and we benefited, as Tomas & Intrepid were wonderful
