Custom Travel in Patagonia
Get Inspired
The best Patagonian journeys are deeply personal. Drawing on nearly 30 years of local knowledge and client feedback we have gathered a collection of adventures and experiences, which we call Elements. Think of these Elements as building blocks.
Simply tick your favourites and click enquire. We will use them as a starting point for a personal journey designed around you, your group or family (minimum two people).
Elements
Elements (marked with an E) can be combined with each other and with standalone trips, some of which are below them.

Encounter wildlife
Patagonia rewards those who slow down and pay attention. Penguins, whales, guanacos, condors, puma to name a few; scan the steppe for movement, watch condors soaring on the thermals, stand watch for whales or dolphins. Tell us about your wildlife wish list and we will shape an itinerary around it. See Wildlife and Photography.

Take a boat charter
Patagonia’s waterways offer everything from scenic glacier cruises and lake crossings to longer journeys through fjords and remote wilderness areas. A private charter unlocks an even more remote and wild side of the region for you, your family or group.

Kayak with whales
Sail and kayak close to whales between the fjords and glaciers of the Magellan Straits in this transformational full day excursion out of Punta Arenas. Paddle out into a pristine and abundant natural environment for an unforgettable up close encounter with humpback whales, a memorable addition to your custom Patagonia adventure.

Sleep outside
Camping is one of the best ways to experience Patagonia for families and those wanting to get out into nature. Disconnect from distractions and reconnect with nature. We provide all camping equipment, put up your tent and, where possible, include a camp cook to prepare delicious outside meals.

Live like a gaucho
Rise with the sun, saddle your horse and ride deep into Patagonia’s backcountry alongside working gauchos. Days are shaped by the needs of the estancia; moving livestock, checking remote outposts and navigating vast landscapes. Nights are spent in simple lodgings, swapping stories over hearty meals and earning a deeper understanding of a culture forged by horses. Hardy, experienced riders only.

Track wild horses
At the heart of this journey is one of Patagonia’s few female estancieras, dedicated to protecting the wild bagual horses of Sierra Baguales. Once seen as a nuisance, these untamed herds are now central to her conservation work. Spend time on the estancia to learn about the project, enjoy local hospitality and experience the dramatic landscapes of the Sierra Baguales. Full details coming to our Wild Horse Experience.

Private chef cook out
Elevate your Patagonia adventure with a private chef experience. Whether at a remote estancia or wilderness campsite, our private chefs create menus showcasing local ingredients. Feast on Patagonian lamb or fresh river trout, thoughtfully prepared and paired with regional wines and beers that reflect the character of southern Patagonia.

Take a remote hike
The W and The Circuit are Torres del Paine’s most popular hikes but there are also a wealth of opportunities to explore some of the area’s lesser known trails such as the side hike to La Avanzada from the Dickson Valley, or the short but intense hike to the dramatic Mt Ferrier look-out. Some of the options are only available with a licensed guide, if you are seeking solitude, great scenery, and serious adventure ask us for details.

Zodiac adventure
Swap the road for Patagonia’s waterways with a boat and Zodiac journey linking Puerto Natales and Torres del Paine. Side trips include a walk to Serrano Glacier and a traditional gaucho asado. For a BlueGreen twist, add wild camping, horseback riding, glacier hikes, or a night at a remote glacier lodge. See Wilderness Explorer.

Sunrise trek to Towers
Leaving at first light, hike through forests, valleys, and glacial terrain to the base of the iconic Towers. The final view is unforgettable, a reward that captures the essence of Torres del Paine’s scale and wild beauty. Sleeping at Chileno gives you a head start.

Paddle near glaciers
There is a quiet sense of freedom that comes with paddling across Patagonia’s glacial waters. The glacier towers above you, the icebergs take on an otherworldly appearance and the connection to nature is immediate. Options vary according to age and experience, ask for details.

Getting married
Celebrate a new chapter in Patagonia or Antarctica. From active honeymoons and intimate elopements to destination weddings, we tailor every detail, including photographers, celebrants, musicians and flowers.

Learn something new
Travel is about more than landscapes. Connect with Patagonia’s people, traditions and way of life through authentic cultural experiences, from conservation projects, artisan and cooking workshops to traditional rodeos. Ask us how we can incorporate these experiences into your journey.

Feast on an asado
Feast on organic lamb with a gaucho asado. Using techniques passed down through generations, local meat is slowly roasted over an open fire until it is tender and full of flavour. The process is unhurried, reflecting the rhythm and traditions of life in Patagonia. Slow down, connect with local traditions and enjoy the simple pleasure of good food in an extraordinary setting.

Give back
From community initiatives such as working with disadvantaged children to volunteering on an estancia, we can help you make your journey both memorable and impactful. If you want to contribute time, money or a skill to a local project get in touch or see our Ecotourism Policy.

Spa plus adventure
Balance adventure with restoration. From yoga and massage to spa treatments and reflexology, we can incorporate wellness experiences into your itinerary, whether at a luxury lodge, in Puerto Natales, or even at your hotel in Torres del Paine. A great way to recover after a taxing hike.

Cycle Patagonia
See Patagonia from the saddle. From gentle family rides in Torres del Paine to legendary routes such as the Carretera Austral and Ruta 40, cycling is an active and rewarding way to experience the region’s extraordinary landscapes.

Stargaze in Atacama
Gaze at some of the darkest skies in the world with an astronomy safari in the Atacama Desert; explore the cosmos with powerful telescopes and expert guides or combine the driest desert on earth with the glaciers of Patagonia in one seamless adventure.

Learn to play polo
Improve your polo skills and learn a new sport. We can match you to a suitable estancia in Buenos Aires For accomplished riders, nothing beats cantering across pristine polo fields on your swift responsive pony and experiencing the thrill of your first long hit.

Ice trekking
Walk across Chile’s Grey Glacier, Argentina’s iconic Perito Moreno, or the remote and rugged Viedma Glacier, exploring ice crevices and formations on everything from easy walks to rugged, challenging treks. Ice hiking is included in some of our trekking and multi-activity tours.

Sleep in an estancia
Trade your hotel for a traditional Patagonian estancia and experience a side of Patagonia few travellers get to see. Ride with gauchos across immense landscapes; learn about life on the frontier and enjoy the warm hospitality of a working ranch. Non riders and families welcome.

Why Travel with BlueGreen Adventures
We have been operating fully supported, guided adventure and exploratory trips in and around the spectacular Torres del Paine National Park in southern Chile for nearly 30 years. We were an early pioneer of the ‘travel local’ ethos when we launched our first trip in 1997.
We also work with a small network of local experts and niche operators in other parts of Chile, Argentina and Antarctica all of whom have the same ethos and work to the same high standards as we do. With the benefit of our local office in Puerto Natales you will receive up to the minute local knowledge and advice.
At BlueGreen we like to stay ahead of the crowd. We invest time and resources researching new destinations, trails and accommodation to come up with exciting, accurate and reliable trip ideas. We ride them; we trek them, building lasting relationships with local providers along the way.
