Patagonia is a natural playground for children
Patagonia is an excellent place for children to experience nature at its most raw and awe-inspiring. Chile is one of South America's safest countries and crime is virtually unknown in rural areas.
There are no water-borne or parasitical diseases such as cholera or guiardia and the Chileans possess a charming warmth of character and love of children that is rare to see at home. With a well-planned and sensible itinerary and armed with a good pair of binoculars, children will love the freedom and excitement that comes from travelling in this superb natural playground. Patagonia Family Adventure
In response to the increased interest from families, we have designed two family itineraries which are suitable for families travelling with children aged between five and fifteen. Our aim is to keep the days full and interesting but to avoid the very long drives, rides or hikes that children, and consequently their parents, find tedious and difficult.
We have chosen accommodations that are practical and interesting and, most importantly, child friendly. All of them offer accessible short hikes to lakes, rivers or wildlife areas from the hotel itself and have flexible restaurants and family rooms available. To introduce adults and children to life on a Patagonian estancia, we have included these in the itinerary. All of them offer a genuine, warm welcome and lots of space for the kids to wander. Over the years we have used various lodgings in the park with our son and feel that the estancia experience is a special one. More so than many of the mainstream park hotels. Additionally, depending on the time of the year, kids can witness local customs such as horse breaking or the branding of animals. Our family itineraries include the company of our specialist guides and vehicle support throughout giving complete day-to-day flexibility. Note that the family itineraries here are just suggestions. We can arrange family trips throughout all of Chile and Argentina. Just email us with your requirements and the ages of your children and we will design a family vacation that will appeal to all members of your family.
Weather
All travel in remote areas has its risks and the weather in Patagonia is fast changing and unpredictable. Please ask us for advice on what to pack, especially for the little ones. Wind and rain can be prolific and the right clothing is essential. If you are travelling with younger children, please contact us for ideas.
