What people love about touring Patagonia solo
- Argentina & Chile: Amazing Patagonia - 13 days
Cecelia met us at Buenos Aries airport and welcomed us to Argentina. We booked our trip through Say Hueque, where Cecelia works, every day of our tour went to plan. We wouldn't change any part of our tour - we enjoyed it very much.
- 8 - Days Experience in San Pedro de Atacama & Torres del Paine National Park
This trip was so amazing from start to finish! I traveled as a solo female traveler and felt incredibly safe at all the hotels they booked for me and with all the tour guides/ drivers. I saw so many things I would not think to go see if I planned this trip by myself. Truly a once in a life time experience!
- Argentina & Chile: Amazing Patagonia - 9 days
The tour overall was excellent - we saw & did everything we wanted to do. Only comments are to not book hosteria so far out of town that it's either a 10 minute taxi or a 45 minute walk to the centre eg Hosteria Koi Aiken in El Calafate. It would be wise not to put in tour notes that bus stations are within walking distance of most hotels because they are not. Also the address for your agent in El Calafate in the summary notes is incorrect but correct in the trip notes
What our customers ask about Patagonia Tours for Solo Travelers
How are day tours and excursions structured for solo travelers in Patagonia?
Day tours in Patagonia accommodate groups of 15-30 people with shared transport guided activities and communal meals. The format naturally encourages interaction among travelers. During activities like the Perito Moreno Glacier tour you'll find plenty of chances to connect with others in your group. A TourRadar traveler noted: "The small group size on our Torres del Paine trek made it easy to get to know everyone while sharing amazing views."
What are the typical group sizes for solo travelers on Patagonia guided tours?
Groups in Patagonia usually consist of 8-16 travelers creating a close-knit environment. Places like Hostel Folk in El Calafate and Hostel Rancho Grande in El Chalten set up their spaces to encourage guest interaction. The smaller numbers help people get to know each other quickly. A TourRadar traveler noted: "The guides were all good and very knowledgeable making it easy to connect with others in the group while exploring places like Perito Moreno Glacier."
What is the typical cost of single supplements on Patagonia tours?
Expect to pay between USD 200-400 for single supplements on standard 4-7 day tours. Some tour companies offer room-matching services to help travelers avoid these extra costs. Hotels like Las Dunas in El Calafate and Chalten Suites provide single rooms with good amenities. According to one TourRadar traveler: "I traveled solo and found the single supplement reasonable given the quality of accommodations provided."
Which areas of Patagonia are most welcoming for solo travelers?
El Calafate and El Chalten stand out as social hubs for independent travelers. Both towns feature active centers filled with cafes and hostels where travelers often meet. The paths around Mount Fitz Roy and Perito Moreno Glacier see regular foot traffic making them safe and social. A TourRadar traveler shared: "El Chalten was perfect for meeting other solo travelers - the hiking community there is very welcoming."
What kind of accommodations can solo travelers expect in Patagonia?
Options range from standard hotels like Las Dunas in El Calafate to basic mountain shelters and campgrounds. Torres del Paine's Refugio Grey offers shared spaces with gender-specific bathrooms and common rooms where travelers often gather. For those wanting privacy upscale options like Costaustralis in Puerto Natales provide private rooms with views of the landscape.
What's the best time of year for solo travelers to visit Patagonia?
The busiest and most social period runs from December through February when weather conditions are most reliable. January sees the highest number of visitors in places like Torres del Paine. The shoulder months of October-November and March-April offer a quieter experience while still providing good conditions for hiking in areas like El Chalten and Los Glaciares National Park.
