Lorena Huidobro
I believe that those of us who love to travel tend to have a more open mind and free spirit. Being open to experience new adventures, explore the unknown, see the beauty in the simple things, taste unique foods, connect with the local culture, and in the process, become a more round individual.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"I craft bespoke travel experiences to Chile, from the Atacama Desert to Patagonia, including Easter Island and Antarctica. I also love combining Chile with Argentina, Bolivia, and Peru. Each trip is tailored to the client, with personalized suggestions and a focus on quality. I'm flexible on budget, but quality's my top priority, with 24/7 support throughout the journey."
How did you get involved in travel?
"I was born and raised in Chile and have lived both in Spain and the USA. Nature has always attracted me for the peace it brings about. It fills my heart and soul. I have been to North, Central, and South America, Europe, part of Asia, and Australia. I still have a lot of places on my bucket list, hopefully Machu Picchu is next!
"
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"Being on an exclusive (but rather affordable!) cruise that travels the remote area from Punta Arenas at the very south of Chile, through fjords and glaciers, the legendary Cape Horn, and arrives in Ushuaia, Argentina. We had daily land expeditions, enjoyed amazing food, and explored a completely virgin area, with zero communication with the world, nothing to keep your mind busy except the beauty of the scenery. It just fills you up."

We had a great experience working with Lorena and her team. Our trip was amazing. Patagonia was stunning and to have a perfect, flawless itinerary was the cherry on top. Everything was planned out for us and there was always help available for questions or concerns. Any issues were solved almost immediately. We especially loved our private guide through Torres del Paine José. He made the trip that much more special. An unforgettable time.
Hi Nicole and Gaurav, I'm beyond thrilled you had an amazing trip. 😊 And I couldn't be happier for you both - congratulations on the baby news 🎉! Loved the photos you shared.
Huge thanks for the kind words, it was a pleasure working with you and glad we could help make it special. José loved having you guys, and I'm so glad he could make it extra memorable. Thanks for choosing us!

Lorena is very knowledgeable with Chile and understands what we're looking for.
Lorena and the team had been a great help in every way, from planning, multiple changes and support during the trip.
She's always responsive. Our flight was delayed so we missed the connection on day 1, Lorena and Valentina helped secure last seats on new flights and saved the day! Our grand trip would have been ruined if it weren't for their... Read more

Hi Teri and Rob,
Thank you so much for your beautiful review! It truly means the world to me. Planning your Lake District adventure—especially crafting something unique—was an absolute pleasure. I’m thrilled that the Skorpios II cruise became such a highlight and that everything ran smoothly from start to finish.
Your kind words about Vaale and our teamwork made our day. I’d be honored to help you and Rob again whenever your next adventure calls in South America.
A big hug from Chile,
