Iconic Chile

(10 Days - Departs Daily on a Private Basis)
Patagonia (Torres del Paine), Santiago & Valparaiso, Easter Island

This private luxury tour features Chile’s most iconic destinations. Experience Patagonia’s stunning landscapes, enjoy comprehensive cultural touring in Santiago, sample some of Chile’s best wines and explore spellbinding Easter Island

Begin at Torres del Paine National Park in Patagonia. One of the most spectacular landscapes in South America, the park is a wonderland of spiky mountains, blue glaciers, sapphire lakes and dense forests. Choose daily excursions according to your interests, such as scenic walks and hikes, wildlife viewing, bird watching, photography safaris, kayaking and boat rides on glacial lakes, visiting a typical estancia (ranch), barbecue lunches, mountain biking and horseback riding.

Next, fly to Santiago, a historic city with unforgettable views of the Andes mountains. While touring with your own private guide, gain an insider's perspective on Santiago highlights such as the Plaza de Armas, Mercado Central, La Chascona (Pablo Neruda's house), the Chilean Museum of Pre-Columbian Art, beautiful colonial architecture, exclusive shops and historic neighborhoods.

One day, take an excursion to Valparaiso, stopping en route for wine tasting at a top winery in the Casablanca Valley, one of Chile's best regions for Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wines. Continue to Valparaiso, an unusual city built on hills overlooking the Pacific Ocean and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Explore the labyrinthine streets of the most colorful cerros (hills), visit notable museums, and perhaps take one of the funiculars that connect the upper and lower parts of the city.

Continue to beautiful Easter Island (Rapa Nui), an isolated volcanic island in the Pacific Ocean that's now a national park and UNESCO World Heritage Site. During touring, learn about the island's traditional Polynesian culture, and see enormous moai (stone heads), ahu (ceremonial platforms) and rock art dedicated to the Tangata Manu (Bird Man) cult. Also enjoy options such as walking on cliffs high above the ocean, biking along the coast, and visiting a ceremonial village perched between the stunning volcanic crater and the Pacific. Conclude the tour with an overnight stay in Santiago.

All touring is flexible and tailored to your interests, and accommodation is in top rooms at Chile's leading luxury hotels and lodges.
