Does it mean I would explore and hike Patagonia alone? Or would I join groups?

We work with independent tours. This means that you will be following your own itinerary, different from the others. There won´t be a travel guide as well. However, we do include shared tours on our itinerary, such as Circruito Chico, Bosque de Arrayanes and Isla Victoria, Torres del Paine, Perito Moreno and so on. This means that you will share these tours with strangers and when they are done, everyone continues their own path.

I have a question about the itineray of the Excursions and the Full Day Tours of this tour. It says, that there is no guide included. Does that also mean, that the excursions are without a guide and travellers have to take care themselves or will someone be there at these excursions as well?

Our tours are not group tours, meant for independent travelers. That means you take the buses and do the trip without a group and or tour conductor. But all the day trips that are included in the tour, like the Torres del Paine day trip of the Perito Moreno glacier day tour, indeed include a bilingual guide. You are picked up at your accomodation with the bus or minibus and a guide, he/she tells you about the activity and the atraction and you are brought back to your accommodation at the end of the day tour.

Is there a specific group size for the tours?

Yes, each tour has a maximum group size to ensure a personalized and comfortable experience. Please check the specific tour details for this information.

Can you accommodate dietary restrictions such as a vegan diet during the tour?

We strive to accommodate dietary restrictions. Please inform us beforehand, and we will coordinate with accommodations to meet your dietary needs as closely as possible.

What are the visa requirements for entering the tour's destinations?

Visa requirements vary by country and nationality. It is recommended that you contact the appropriate consulate or embassy for the most accurate and up-to-date information.

Are the bus tickets included in the package covered or do I need to pay extra?

The bus fares are fully covered and you will not need to pay anything additional.

What should I do if I have no return flight booked yet?

Once you have planned your next destination, please provide the departure information so that we can assist with your travel arrangements.

What should I do upon arrival at the airport for my tour?

You will be greeted by our representative holding a sign with your name. The company awaiting you will be clearly indicated.

What does "self guided" mean? Would I be in a group? I am 74 years old and don't want to travel alone.

If I chose to avoid the 20 hr bus ride from Bariloche to Chaltan, what are my options?

What happens if there is no availability for a tour at the time I want?

If the desired tour is not available, we can reschedule your trip to the next available dates or suggest alternative tours.

Overall a pretty great experience. There are some long excursions (Torres del Paine) and the weather can be, obviously, unpredictable. But the agency is responsive and friendly. I would recommend taking flights when possible instead of the long bus rides; and I wish we had gotten to spend more time in El Chaltan. But again, overall a great experience!Show more

  Traveler•Written August 2025
  Is the overall tour suitable for solo travelers? Is it possible to organise yourself with other people, that might be doing the same tour but e.g. maybe stay at another hotel or are you mostly on your own?
- Hi Travel ArgentinaOperator•Written August 2025
  If you stay at a hostel, there is more "sharing experiencies vibe" than in a hotel. Hostels have large common rooms where you meet fellow travelers. For example when you stay in El Chalten and do the self guided treks, it is best to try to coordinate with other trekkers. When you stay at a hotel, it is more difficult. Our travelers tend to be social and get easily involved with others, but there is no guarantee they will do the same tour as you do or go to the exact same destinations.
