Patagonia Holidays

With coastlines stretching along both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, Patagonia is home to immense empty grasslands, ancient forests, freshwater lakes, salmon-filled streams, fjords, glacial valleys, volcanoes and of course the jagged peaks of the Andes mountains, the longest and youngest mountain range in the world.

BlueGreen Adventures started out in 1997 in southern Chile’s magnificent Torres del Paine National Park. Since then we have grown and evolved. Always staying true to our ethos of organising well-planned, authentic and unique holidays our knowledge and expertise now stretches far from our original base.

Chile

Is an area of surprising and unforgettable extremes and contrasts. A corridor of land that stretches from the arid north to the glacial south between the Pacific Ocean and the Andes mountains. It is home to 15 regions, an area containing no less than 32 national parks, 600 volcanoes, limitless mountain islands and fjords, hundreds of glaciers, acres of pristine ancient forests, 4000 miles of coastline and the driest desert in the world.

Argentina

Situated on the eastern side of the southern chain of the Andes mountains, Argentina is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean. The second largest country in South America it is made up of 23 provinces with 25 national parks and like Chile it offers an abundance of diversity and extremes. Home to wetlands, arid & desolate mountain ranges, thundering waterfalls, towering glaciers, ceaseless pampas and the southernmost city in the world.

Antarctica

Is the coldest, highest, driest, most inhospitable and remote continent on earth and yet many intrepid travellers dream of experiencing the thrill of such utter isolation. Twice as big as Australia, an ice sheet covers around 98% of Antarctica’s surface. It contains 90% of the world’s ice and 70% of the world’s fresh water. At its thickest point, the ice sheet is almost a mile deep. Antartica, the White Continent, is the ultimate wildness.

Bespoke holidays

We aim to provide you with the trip of a lifetime, an unforgettable encounter with astonishing landscapes and the people and wildlife they sustain. However you choose to experience the south, we can tailor a trip to meet your needs.
