I am interested in the Santiago and the Chilean Patagonia trip, but would like to join a group. Do you have any group departures in late April that I can join? I don't want to book and then risk going alone without a group.

We do not organize group departures unfortunately, we organize trips as per each request. For the activities you'll share a group of tourists doing the same activity the same day, but it will always be different people each activity and destination. For hotel room and transfers, you'll be alone booking this tour.

The tour ends in Torres del Paine. Can you book a flight back to Santiago? If yes, can you advise how long it takes, so that I know how to organize my flight from Santiago to New York.

Flights are not included in the price of the itinerary. I could include them for an additional price.

Please provide full details of this tour, including a quote for internal flights or other transport options.

As we are an Argentinian agency, and this tour is entirely in Chile, we are not able to offer flights as they're international for us, and therefore, the tickets have extra taxes if they're booked through us. In this case, we can offer the tour proposal on the website with the published price.

How big is the bus driving to Viña del Mar and Valparaiso? Do we take a domestic flight or bus from Santiago to Puerto Montt? How much is the additional costs? Do we take a domestic flight or bus from Puerto Montt to Puerto Natales? How much is the additional costs? Do we take a domestic flight or bus from Puerto Natales - Punta Arenas? How much is the additional costs? May I have a list of hotel for this tour? In case of any personal emergency, what's the refund and cancellation policy?

Bus to Viña del Mar and Valparaiso is normally a VAN or minibusses depending on group size. We consider connections by flight. A private transfer Santiago-Puerto Montt and Puerto Montt-Puerto Natales are not included in original quotation. Connection from Puerto Natales to Punta Arenas airport is included in price. Hotel list: Fundador Santiago, Cabañas del Lago in Puerto Varas, Costaustralis in Puerto Natales. Complete Cancellation policy can be found in tour details under 'Your Peace of Mind Options'.

Is travel from Puerto Montt to Puerto Natales available via the Ultima Esperanza Sound? If yes, what is the cost and duration of travel?

I am looking at booking this tour in May. Would I be able to join a tour that begins July 14?

The guide in Santiago was really helpful but the hotel was only 1*. It was broken down, tiles were moldy, chipped and rooms were cold (heat is off in spring). There was no hot water and when it was available, it was intermittent. The sights were beautiful and definitely worth visiting, unfortunately, the guides could not speak English well and if in a group with Spanish-speaking tourist, the tour was mainly in Spanish, with 10% in English if you are lucky. There was little to be said in English because they did not have the vocabulary to explain.Show more
