Visit Patagonia

“I had seen photos and videos of the ice formation before, but like a lot of cases, neither could do the real thing much justice. [...] I was perfectly content soaking in the landscape surroundings as we journeyed to Torres del Paine National Park. We would be spending the next three nights camping in the park, and going on a couple more hikes during the day. My favorite was an 18km round-trip trail to Base Torres where we climbed over boulders and marched up steep, narrow tracks to get to the base of Three Towers.”

“We spent the morning kayaking around the glacier, then we walked along the boardwalks and then we took a boat to the ice trekking activity. We spent the entire day at the glacier and it was sensational. The best part is that we witnessed a huge piece of the glacier calve and fall into the water which caused some of the icebergs to move. It was a truly unforgettable experience.”

“I’ve just finished my Patagonia trip - both southern Patagonia (TDP, El Calafete, El Chalten) and Carretera Austral. It was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure (q cliche but true). From glaciers to lagoons to lakes to mountains to waterfalls to hanging glaciers and world class hiking trails, Patagonia is truly spectacular. Context: I’m in my early 30s from Singapore traveling to South America for the first time. I only planned this trip 2 months ago and my objectives were 1) Find the beautiful views; 2) Roadtrip; and 3) Go on day treks whenever possible (multi-days treks were not considered as I did not want to carry additional weight and sleep in tents). Additionally, I travelled alone, don’t speak Spanish and don’t have experience driving on unpaved roads.”
