Family Travel
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 the south. 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 area.

Patagonia Family Adventure

In response to the increased interest from families, we have designed this itinerary, which is 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 alike to life on a Patagonian estancia, we have included three typical estancias in the itinerary.  All of these offer a genuine, warm welcome and lots of space for the kids to wander.  Over the years we have used all the various lodgings in the park with our son Eliot.  We feel that the estancias are a little more special than many of their hotel counterparts.  Additionally, depending on the time of the year, guests can get to witness local customs such as horse breaking or the branding of animals. 

To make the trip more exciting we have included the fabulous Grey II launch to the face of Grey Glacier and Zodiac boat ride out of the Park through the Bernardo O'Higgins National Park.

This itinerary can be changed to suit individual requirements. Camping could also be added for the hardier types. Vehicle support throughout gives complete day-to-day flexibility. more

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.
